A Struggle for Survival: My Parents’ Story of Loss and Resilience

What were your parents doing at your age?

At my age, my father was the field officer at a tea estate. Unfortunately, the company was eventually locked out due to mismanagement, and he lost his job. My mother had no job, so they struggled for years. The company never paid the funds it owed and was stuck in the company quarters for a long time. Since the place was remote, it was hard for my father to find another job. They managed with their emergency savings for as long as they could. Despite the challenges, they showed a lot of resilience during that difficult period.
