If Angelina Jolie and Brad Pit go to a ‘rocky’ beach for a stroll and play with three of ‘their’ kids it becomes news. The fact that she is pregnant (first time on), with Brad’s twins (-before marriage doesn’t matter-they are not Indians) is glorified no end. That Brad has time to help her on such outings is indeed laudable. What is surprising is even the rich and affluent have to ‘hunt’ for house of their choice and be guest(seek refuge) to a friend till then!
Back home a very common sight is a hapless bare footed mother-toeing by the hands two half (if not fully) naked kids with hair matted with soil and sweat. Third one suckling her breast relentlessly, blissfully making sound on the rhythm of her steps, is kicking at the fourth in her stomach. They are oblivious of the scorching sun. All of them unmindful of the dust falling from the tub of rocks or sand that the mother is carrying on her head-this does not make news-labourers and their lives seldom do.
Probably the only commonality between the two is the number of children and both mothers’ creditable commitment towards the children.
