What do you teach your children? More fundamentally, what was your exact feeling when the doctor and/or your uncle, aunt, dad, mom, sister, brother, granddad, grandma, neighbor, cousin, friend, philosopher, and/or guide gave you the news that you’ve become a father/mother? Answer honestly. Or stop reading further.
I could perhaps phrase this question in a more comforting way: what’s the best gift you think you’ve given your child/children?
Send in your answers in the comments section. The actual answer shall form both the subject and body of the next post by me.

Support Swarajya's 50 Ground Reports Project & Sponsor A Story
Every general election Swarajya does a 50 ground reports project.
Aimed only at serious readers and those who appreciate the nuances of political undercurrents, the project provides a sense of India's electoral landscape. As you know, these reports are produced after considerable investment of travel, time and effort on the ground.
This time too we've kicked off the project in style and have covered over 30 constituencies already. If you're someone who appreciates such work and have enjoyed our coverage please consider sponsoring a ground report for just Rs 2999 to Rs 19,999 - it goes a long way in helping us produce more quality reportage.
