Hi Rockettes!
Here's a mental health blog I wrote a few years ago that I think is more relevant than ever now. It's titled Manipulation, Guilt & Control: Normal in Indian Families and it outlines ways that Indian/Desi families seek to control younger, vulnerable members of the family. Mostly based on my own life experiences, this is a very personal blog.
