AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Till what age can a boy change clothes in front of his mother? My son is 10 and half years old and I think now he should start having some privacy but he does not listen and he is very comfortable bathing, changing in front of me. What should be the age?

The need for privacy comes strongly with onset of adolescence which is generally around 12 to 14 years of age. As biological and hormonal changes come, children grow conscious and the urge to hide comes naturally.

Affectionately,

Alok da.

She was referring to a possibility, a possibility that was strong at that moment as well remains a risk for the future. Sri Aurobindo also said that they are very restless and saw the threat of Red China invading India through Tibet. As long as the Communist party …

I usually don’t get much lonely and even if I, I get comfortable on remembering the Mother. But for sometime, I am getting too emotional on festivals such as today, which usually results in a fever and impacts my work. How should I deal with it?🏡📍🥺🧸☕
