Indian Homes and Families by Garvit Gawri

Earlier times, in India there was custom to live in Joint Families,
usually carrying 8 - 12 people in the family.  Now a days, there are
Nuclear Families having 3-5 people.  Due to nuclear families, people
prefer to live in a flat which is of 2-3 bedroom apartment.

I am also living in the Nuclear Family.  My Grand Father and my father
and mother.  I am the only child of my parents.  My both parents are
working and Grand Pa is a retired person and living whole day in the
house.

My Uncle, Aunt and my cousin are living in the vicinity of our house.

In India,  all the fascilities are provided to the Teenagers.  Since
it is our priviledge that we are living in New Delhi which is the
capital of India.  We play in the Parks, roam with our friends, watch
movies, play computer games, ride scooty etc.

In India most of teens love to participate Curricular activities in
the school like drawing competition, literally Englishh Week,
Singhing, Computer, Dancing, Sports (Football, Vollyball, Shotput,
Table Tennis, Basket Ball etc.).  At home too I go for swimming and
learn Casio keyboard.

In India there is stiff competition.  Lengthy courses makes child
stressfull.  They attend Extra Class, Tutitions and some go to the
Competition Classes also. To get admission in the choicest courses in
prestigious colleges, one should study very very hard.

Parents allow to have fun but also due to stress of studies, we cann'
t enjoy our childhood fully.   As we know to sustain in such a
competitive atmosphere, we have to devote more time to studies.
