Dia and Shafeen are cooking. |
I got to know a girl. She works for a good mobile company. She is living with her husband and 2 kids. And now a day husband’s
sister, brother, father (sometimes) and mother (occasionally). She spends all her money on her family, so that her husband can give his money to his parents and raise his other siblings. He couldn’t save money for his own
children's future. His wife saves some, but she had expended those in her husband’s sister's marriage ceremony. Now, what is the position of this wife to the family? Everybody loves her for sacrificing everything for this family.
NO, nobody from her in-laws' side likes her. They want more.
She kept 2 maids working at home and caring for her children while she worked
outside. Her husband’s family wants her to cook for them. They tell everyone
they know their sister-in-law isn’t good enough. She doesn’t cook for
them! They don’t care whether she should live or not, no matter how hard she works and spends money for them. They want more and more. They have
different policies for making her cook. One day her father-in-law boiled some vegetables to eat, and then her brother-in-law asked to stop it, because it would reduce her work.
See, what a life of a woman in Bangladesh. And this
condition is very natural in our social life. We don’t think that all are
making a woman’s life miserable… We always encourage the groom’s family to be
hard on their bride.

It's realy a tragetic and foul culture.Each part shuld be sympathetic and understanding to other. For making the family life happy all members should stand each other, recognize other's contributions and expectations & limitations.
This is extremely sad but it is a very common situation in Bangladesh right now. My own mother went through this thing. But I have hope for our future generation. I know that my wife, my daughter (or daughter in law)and my granddaughter (if I'm lucky enough to have one) will not suffer this same injustice. Small changes will help us change the world
Thanks Tareq, that's the point. If any reader can understand this then I am successful.
One more thing, you can protect this situation for your wife and daughter in law, but you can say about it to your daughter or grand daughter. That will depend on their in law family.
