“I always obeyed my parents. I did not know how to ask questions. I did go to school for a few years but there was a lot of work at home and many mouths to feed. So father couldn’t send me to school. Today, there is TV and schools and people talk about what not. Sometimes I don’t even understand what they talk about. But today, to see my daughter ask me questions makes me happy.”
What kinds of questions does she ask?
All kinds. Questions that I don’t even have the answers too. And I wonder how such a small brain gets all these questions from. Recently she ask me where the water came from? How would I know where it came from? I told her, ‘The Sky.’ ” (Radha Gharti Magar, Khanne Gaira, Daugha, Gulmi)
