Separation is between spouses, not between parents

Separation should only be between spouses, not between parents. This idea, once expressed by a Hon’ble Family judge, carries a deep truth. With rapid social and economic change in our society, conjugal and familial relationships are becoming more complex with each passing day, and so are the conditions for their dissolutions.

Cultural diversity need of the day (Opinion)

“The crucial differences which distinguish human societies and human beings are not biological. They are cultural.” by Ruth Benedict. From the above point of view, the great difference that separates people around the world is their CULTURE. Here the question arises as to what culture is? Culture is a broad term that encompasses ideas, customs, social norms, beliefs, values, norms, and in general can be understood as the “way of being” of individuals or communities.

Shedding Light on Surrogacy

For many, the blessing and hope to parenthood are not always how they will have pictured, particularly when experiencing a long route of infertility or in some cases knowing from the beginning there will be difficulty to accept the lack in themselves. An option often left behind is surrogacy. Surrogacy is an agreement in which a woman agrees to carry and give birth to a child on behalf of another person or couple.
