In my view, this topic is such a paradox in India. When I meet people in the street or anywhere, they are extremely selfish and has total lack of respect to a fellow human being. I can sit and wait for hours for a delivery, but once the delivery man is here; HE is upset that I take 5 min to come down. Especially if he has called saying that he'll "leave now", be there in "20 min" ....like 3 hours ago. You get my point?
Within the Indian family, the complete opposite applies. If two sisters have a job for example, they pay for the entire family. Everything. They don't keep a single rupee to buy something for themselves.
I guess the selfish outside world in some way forces the families to stick together. I mean if you can't trust government, the police, a stranger. ....only family is left.
