Gifts for Daughter

Mystic relation with your daughter

A son is a son till he takes him a wife, a daughter is a daughter all of her life.

~ Irish Saying.

While we do not mean to doggedly follow the statement and that many a sons are there whose behavior is not at all affected towards their parents by the various developments in life, but the latter part of the saying is quite dependable. It is a true saying that daughters never change. They may leave home and have their own family, but they never fail to fulfill their familial duties.

Going by the Indian traditional value system, the sons are obliged to provide financial support to their parents, while the daughters must provide day-to-day care. But the commendable part is that nowadays the daughters are providing their parents with a dual role- that of a traditional daughter along with that of her brother. They are pretty active on both professional and personal fronts and maintain a good balance between the two differing roles.

But this isn't the only unique part about daughters. The daughters are usually the mature ones compared to their brothers, even if they are elder. They are caring and protective about their parents in more of a motherly manner. In the same way, they are more trusting as well. Despite the innumerable qualifications and wisdom they may possess, they'll always depend on their mama and dad like a little baby and can follow them blindly. Taking a leaf out of a pagan tale, there's this story of a destitute man who recalls the death of his daughter.

I had a daughter, who, when she was old enough to comprehend and talk, would rejoice whenever she saw me and would immediately respond. One day, I called her and told her to follow me, so she did, until we reached a well that belonged to my tribe. I then took her by her hand and threw her in the well, and the last thing I heard her cry was: O father! O father!'

What made the man commit such a hideous crime comes as a later debate, but what is noticeable is the expression of the daughter- O father! O father!'

This shows what love, devotion and trust a daughter attaches to her parents.

This was but just a short extract from a greater scenario. Daughters are subject to societal pressure from a young age. And yet their love never dwindles, their strength never wavers. They have been ever so fond and affectionate, kind-hearted and sympathetic that the world had to stoop down to their existence, so much so that today, if there is any relationship which is the most intimate and the best cherished, it is the one parents share with their daughters.

If you ask a father today, a daughter is the dearest to him.
