In India, parents are suing their son and his wife, because they did not give them grandchildren

Everyone knows how grandparents love their grandchildren. Sometimes more than their children. This is readily believed after the case in India, where an elderly couple decided to sue their son and daughter-in-law. Parents are outraged that the young family is in no hurry to please their grandchildren.

An unusual case even for India occurred in the state of Uttarakhand. 61-year-old Sanjeev Prasad and his 57-year-old wife Adana appealed to the Haridwar city court with a statement against their son and his wife. Parents demand compensation for moral damage and financial costs associated with the arrangement of the fate of their offspring.

The father and mother paid for their son Sri Sagar to study at the pilot school, found a wife from a good family and played a decent wedding. But the children turned out to be ungrateful and for six years of married life they did not give the old people grandchildren. Now Sanjeev and Adana are serious — they want the carefree Sri Sagar and his wife to reimburse all costs.

The amount of the claim turned out to be considerable. The training of his son as a pilot of civil airlines in the United States cost the elderly 65 thousand dollars (4.2 million rubles). A wedding, a car presented to young people and a honeymoon "pulled" another 80 thousand dollars (5.2 million rubles). Here we need to add the expenses for the maintenance of his son when Sri Sagar lost his job. The unemployed pilot has been sitting on the neck of pensioners for almost two years.

In an interview with one of the local publications , Sanjeev Prasad bitterly says:

Sanjeev Prasad does not consider himself poor. Prior to retirement, the man held a high position in the manufacturing holding Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited. Nevertheless, he intends to recover money for the damage caused from his son's family. Prasad considers his behavior strange, since he lives with his wife in different cities. What kind of talk can there be about a child?

To the daughter - in - law at Prasada has separate claims:

The pensioners' lawyer Arvind Srivastava, who represents their interests in court, considers the claims of his clients to be completely justified. But how else? All parents dream of raising grandchildren, and here there is malicious intent and disrespect. The lawyer is confident that the case will be won.
