Yesterday, I was both delighted and distressed too, upon reading a piece of news on the front page of one of the newspapers that I read every day. That report was about a high-ranking lady IAS Officer of the Kerala cadre, who chose to bring her toddler son with her to the valedictory function of a private film festival she was attending, which is why I was delighted. Not many women in similar positions do something like this, even if they have little children who naturally expect every minute of their mothers’ attention round-the-clock.
