Arula Kumari Mahato with her son Bateswor 3, Dhanusa

“Mother always says that she does not need help. But I do not listen to her. I still come to help her when I see her struggling. When she is burdened with problems at home, I go and listen to her. When she cannot carry a heavy bucket of water, I go and carry it for her. She keeps on telling me that I need to focus on my studies and my career. I know that but she cannot do everything herself. I am her son and I know she needs help. And whenever she does, I am there.”
