Nallayan used to say, 'Why do you think we have and raise children? For them to grow up well? No. We do it because we seem to need it for ourselves. That is why we have children and raise them. And then in old age we complain that those children are not taking care of us. It is all plain madness..."
Let him be right. We don't expect our children to take care of us when we are old. It is enough if we can have a social life because of them. Now we are forced to act like untouchables, fearing if our sight or touch is auspicious. All we want is to show these people who ostracize us that we too are people just like them.
