- Games mean running game or candy game
This is one of the biggest myths among Indian parents. they never heard of AAA title games like GTA, the god of war, etc what the thought is that game is limited to running or candy game. simple games like running, quizzes, or puzzle games, etc are some of the limited game lists.
No-fault of parents
See, there is no fault of your parents they are just worried about their children's future. They do not want them to see the days that they faced to come to that level. they want them to be successful in their life.
Most of India's population is of middle-class people.
they are most worried about their children so, they do what they can best do to give their children a safe future. they pay lakhs to coaching classes, school fees, and small expenses to secure their child's future.
