Children are generally very much pampered in the Culf countries, particularly mate children. I am very proud that I have managed to instil some discipline in the children under my care. I taught them to respect household work and the contribution ofthe domestic help. Both the children under my care used to help me with work. I believe that this will help them to grow up as responsible adults who respect work and workers and not look down on them." After marriage (mine was a love marriage) there was no way to study further and I was not very keen either.
