Grandparents often serve as primary caregivers, telling stories and passing down values to children.

In Indian culture, respect for elders is deeply ingrained. Children are taught from a young age to show respect to their elders through gestures like touching their feet (a sign of respect and seeking blessings). This reverence for age is reflective of the broader societal values that prioritize family unity and respect for tradition.

Today, the lifestyle is evolving. You’ll see the "Swiggy" delivery boy arriving alongside the traditional vegetable vendor. You’ll see families on Zoom calls with relatives in the US or UK, maintaining the "global Indian family" connection.
