   i wanted this question..... is it right when your parents raise their hand on you.....meaning do they have that right given by guru ji to raise their hand to thier children? ......i know it might be suprising to most of the sangat here and maybe abit embarising for me :wub: because my mum abuses me verbally aswell as physically over minor mistakes.......i know it might just sound like "yhh my mum slaps me aswelll".....but this matter is very frequent with me... but when she abuses me.......that question bugs me all night...and i try to convince myself by saying that shes bin through alot of stress and it might be that stress taking over her...but i cant deny the fact…

   Hi, I'm a 25 year old Ramgarhia Sikh living in South East. For the past year my father has been trying to find me a girl and has had no luck. I want to get married but because of my fathers attitude and vindictive nature I fear that he will subject my wife to the same mental torture my mother, brother and I have had to put up with over over lives. Even so I haven't rejected or hindered the search on my part - I am open to all castes. The only rejections that have been done have been from the parents of the girls. They arrange a time and date to meet but cancel at the last minute. Some even come to our house and take one look at the house/me/family and make a decis…

    this is embarrasing, but something which is on my mind alot!! I like putting shabads on (sky radio) during the night, I often sleep with them on and wake up to them... now the embarrasing bit... is it bad to be cuddled upto my husband, to kiss him or do anything whilst these are on?? I feel bad switching over if my husband decides to cuddle me throughout the night... I sometimes ask him not to touch me, but surley we're married in the eyes of god and are antitled to hug , shabds on or not...god is always around us..what do you all think???
