Yes, and it has been cleaned up.Has OP's level of ******ry been decided yet?
It's called "filial duty'. This word used to have some meaning in western culture, but over the centuries, it has all but disappeared, and when the word "family" is used in the western context, it now only means the husband, wife and their kids. Parents, siblings etc are not considered your "family". It is a ridiculous notion and goes against all logic. How can those who are related to you by blood not be your family and an unrelated person, your spouse, be the most important from the legal point of view?The truth is that most Indians are extremely risk averse. They cannot handle any degree of uncertainty over their future, and hence end up being miserable by jumping the gun. Also, most Indians are extremely docile and obsequious to their parents.
hey parme mein rahne do parda na uthoYou mean you have many unknown children? Hmm
There's more to life than money. Cliche but true.I have a legit question, cause I really dont know:
What will you for money after studying philosophy? I'm guessing teaching, or research? I've never really seen any jobs that ask for philosophers.
There was a movie taken on this a few years ago, where there was a guy who does M.A in Tamil, and is actually a brilliant student. But in the end he sees that his friends who were not really good have gotten far more money position etc (IT,call center workers), and he starts to wonder if he made thw wrong choice in taking an arts degree. The movie does not have a happy ending.
Or you could do a language degree and start writing songs/punch dialogs for movies!!:taunt1: or maybe even get into political parties There are many options to go in, but the chance for high success is low, and most of the jobs are low paying govt jobs.
That's easy to say when you're surviving on your parents or the government's money. Student loans or welfare is not forever.There's more to life than money. Cliche but true.

I studied Philosophy in uni myself. But I didn't get a degree in philosophy, as it would have been useless. You can follow your interests while also being practical about your future. Of course, my case was different though. I wasn't a spoiled rich kid and actually wanted to achieve something in life.Why is your avatar a picture of Nietzsche? TAKE IT OFF
What did you achieve? And I'm not a spoiled rich kid. My parents are middle class. Your assumptions have no rational basis.I studied Philosophy in uni myself.

My achievements are not for public consumption. But what will take you 2 degrees and 8+ years to achieve, I did in 4. Enuff said. If your parents are middle class, then all the more reason to not get a useless B.A.What did you achieve? And I'm not a spoiled rich kid. My parents are middle class.
