The Oversensitive, Hyper Mom | Smile With Prachi 

Hey window , If you don't take a stand about how you want to raise your child people will keep on taking the liberties till forever, I understand a social life is important but just remember,its your baby's life and your journey as a parent as long as you are aware, and taking informed decisions ( like melted chocolate to a 2 month old is hell a no, i would have banned that person from our lives , extreme i know but thats just me you can ignore that) everything is good.... my child is over a year old and still no pic on anywhere thats how we wanted it to be and everybody in our close clan knows this so they respect it but the catch is that me and my husband may have disagreements more than usuals but when among people we are one voice , we are one team and its not like one leads one follows , its mutual, his parents or my parents or anybody has no right over our family decisions as ultimately its the two of us who are responsible for this family and we both understand that so your husband needs to share your voice he needs stand for whats right for his KID, WIFE & FAMILY, PERIOD... PS:- don't let others treat you like a dormat in taking decisions just because they are your elders( be it your parents or his) , your baby is your baby and as long as you are an aware and loving parent no person has a right to say anything

Door, Please upgrade the way you think. You don't have any right to invade someone's privacy even if it's your sister. Btw she is legally adult so stop controlling her. Don't make her life tough.

The first letter was so so relatable that's what my parents think....and I feel like they need to accept today's environment and change their thinking although it's near to impossible so I do the same , hide everything......

In the first case scenario, I am sure the brother is not gonna understand anything whatever you said...

I had a similar experience as door’s sister. My brother saw my messages with my boyfriend when I was 17. I was attending some classes it was a holiday so I took the chance told my parents I’m going to the classes and went to meet my boyfriend. He found out this through my messages and he started abusing me and that was the last time he spoke to me. ( He warned me multiple times not to be in a relationship before). I was an aggressive teenager and I still continued to talk to my boyfriend. Later my dad was checking my phone and found my pictures with my boyfriend and he abused me and that was the last time my dad spoke to me and he snatched my phone. I was in a hostel and I had no phone for 1 year. I still managed to keep in touch with my boyfriend. I really wanted to meet him once I sneaked out of the hostel and went to his place and stayed there for that night. Everyone got to know about this my parents, everyone in. My dad called my boyfriend’s mom and warned her that he’ll file a police complaint if he tried to talk to me. I didn’t know anything about this. My boyfriend started to avoid me and I had no clue why he was doing that. That year was like a hell to me. My dad, my brother, my boyfriend stopped talking to me. I had no friends. My mom is the only one that was concerned about me. An year later I got to know my boyfriend is not happy either and depressed. I tried to talk to him again and this time he opened up and he wanted me back no matter what. I’m 23 now and we’re still in a happy relationship. But I might not have a healthy relation with my brother and father (we were really close before all this)

I just always wonder...how you have always answers to such complicated question. Everytime, I saw your videoes....I m amazed how you put your thoughts so well structured and talks about each and every point so calmly and clearly. Prachi, you are my inspiration. One day I want to be like you. Strong,opinionated and calm woman.

Amazing video didi.. I have something to say from my experience to "Door" I have a younger sister nearly 2 years younger.. We have never seen how a healthy relationship look like.. My dad always abused mom.. Soo when my sis was 18 she started dating..nd when I came to know I did not react much I left it as such because of which she trusted me and used to share everything about her relationship and things happened that he had 2 broken relationship.. Then after years that is now.. She is in a amazing relationship and I am happy for her.. Even now she knows I am with her and even her bf knows😜and a bit scared of me.. Because of her past broken relationship she knows what she wants from her relationship bcs we never saw it in our home So door.. I know you have concern for your sister.. But things are like this in modern world.. You have to gain trust of your sister and she should have confidence that if her bf does anything wrong she has you by her side.. And even her bf should also know that.. You are behind her protecting.. If she does not trust you and she does not opens up to you.. There is high chance the her bf (incase he is toxic) taking advantage of that and blackmailing her.. So stand by her.. Don't abuse her like this.. Beating saying mean words don't work... Thank you prachi didi.. Love you😍❤

Lying about not have a box of chocolates when they actually do is definitely an issue at my place!

Door you know that when humans reach the age of 18 they've become adults right? No?Well at least now you know 🙃

You're gonna be the coolest mom ever 😊

Door, do you really think you are being a sanskari bhaiyya by snooping on your sister's phone and ratting her out to your parents so that they can beat her up? "Humari naak katwaogi usse pehle tumhari haddiyan na tod doon" type of dialogues belong to the 1980s flop hindi films. As a brother, you should obviously feel protective about your sister. But this is not protection. I really don't know what this is.

The first letter.... I can definitely relate to it.... because I have gone through the same... exactly same situation in 2014.....my sister was is place of her brother and my family behaved the same way....it was really very traumatizing.....but I'm Still with the same guy and now my family has accepted him.... some day I'll Marry him (fingers crossed)

Door, Your intentions were not incorrect . It is very natural for an elder sibling to be protective towards the younger one . In fact your concern on her studies and you wanting her to become independent is appreciable. Where you went wrong was with this entire handling of situation. You should have first spoken to your sister instead of complaining to your parents

Di please be more active on this channel we really need your support about such issues, people are suffering with mental health issues these days and you give a hope and give solution to our problems. Hope people start taking such problems seriously specially parents and accept things which happen around them.

I know this is out of blue or prachi saying it unintentionally, we should stop comparing with animal's behavior to justify immature dumb human being. In my opinion, animals are much better with no emotional intelligence so lets stop saying 'stop behaving like animals' :)

The first letter is actually showing a very common reality of present days... Just like how parents need to stop beating up their kids similarly 'too young teenagers' need to understand the dangers of dating at a very young age. And the second letter is actually a very serious matter... Once the baby grows up, the grandparents and relatives really may start saying real hurtful things thinking that they are helping or giving good suggestions..... I have experienced my grandma, aunt saying some real horrible things starting from a very young age of mine.... My parents weren't aware of that. And I went through it by myself even when it was hard. Do not let your child go through such experiences... Hopefully, nothing like that will happen. Just one more thing, Once a baby grows up please try to listen to them too, even if he/she is saying something/complaining about a relative. Do not overlook things.

Wow..what a video...how clearly you we express, without being biased. Hats off Prachi. Keep up the good work

Same here when my parents beat me I lost emotional connection to my parents, I no longer talk to them, I don't share my feelings, sometimes I feel I am so alone I am on the verge of a breakdown but even that I can't share bc I know my parents will judge me for it, I just do chores around the house but I don't talk to them about anything anymore

Hi Prachi, Your words are very inspiring, I really feel relaxed whenever I watch your videos. I have something to tell the Door, Brother never ever allow your sister beaten up by your parents. You should stand for her and comfort her. I am 24 year old even today I have that past trauma of my mom beating me, until I was 22. Even today I am not too attached to her, I like her, spend for her but lost that emotional connection with her. Feeling emotional, even today I have those marks and scars in my body which remember me all those bad experience with my mom. I am 90s kid, I didn't have the privileges your sis has, but my mom was always doubting me and talking bad about my character which was disgusting to me. Even today when someone talks about girl's character I can't tolerate. Please understand your sister, love her and give her space. If her guy is not good, encourage her to break up and have peaceful life.

Window - Just lock your doors and when they ring the bell, dont open, and later you can make up stories like - Ah dayum I was tired and dozed off. Just do it 4-5 times, they themself would gradually stop coming over😜

Last night only I finished your last smile with Prachis video . I’ll take time to watch this video. Life has changed a lot in last few months . Thanks foe the video Prachi ❤️

These videos make me think broadly Iam learning a lottt through these videos Thanks diiii!!! Iam 17😊

Hey window.. I just wanted to share a piece of my life as I found it really relatable to yours. So I'm a mid teenager. And basically my parents r seperated and I live with my mother. Actually I was really close to my dad's of the family. So uk at one point of time, they started dominating the role of parenting over my own mother. I really did not understand at that time, but now I totally get that they became dominant over the time (which was not the reason for their separation). So basically what I'm trying to tell you is, if you let this continue whatever is going on with you and your child.. there is no doubt they would dominate over you at one point of time which is really toxic for a child of any age. (ik this as I've experienced this). I just wanted to share this to you window. I wish the very best to you and your family

Shame on that brother. Brothers have no rights over their sister . Moreover, maybe she really loved that guy.

i just love you Prachi...you give me the strength for standing up for myself...may god bless you ❤️

Prachi, the solutions you provide in your videos are absolutely amazing! The videos are life changing, because these give us an entirely different perspective towards life! Thanks a ton. God bless you.

Prachi would make an amazing mental health counselor/ therapist. ✨🥺♥️

Yesterday, a little boy in our neighborhood died by drowning in water. This incident has impacted me in such a way that my entire perception regarding life has just shattered!! I have always been a very ambitious girl, I have a lot of dreams, I work hard each day so as to achieve my goals (currently am studying in 2nd yr) . Since yesterday , I am feeling so afraid that what if I die before fulfilling my dreams , what's the point of working so hard then??!! The demise of that little child has left me grief stricken, the loss feels so personal !! My willingness to live and work for a better future has just vanished after this incident, a strange thought( i.e. what if I die in the evening or what will happen if I loose my closest ones) is constantly coming to my mind. Is this normal or am I getting mad?? Please help Prachi Di !!

Your videos are so good whenever I watch your videos I get to know about life .

Love the way you answered this , you are so patient

O my god! Dii !! I love you! Love your thoughts and positivity in you ✨💕

I love the way you say bye ... Shows how much you love your viewers. . ❤️❤️ .... Cutest bye I have ever seen .😚😚😚😚

Thank you Prachi for the 1st letter. I have the similar story and I was feeling guilty for hurting my parents and brother. But thanks to you as I know the problem lies within them and not me. And you spoke my heart. Hell yes, its so hard to forgive them

literally every parent in india need to watch this video

9:40 Somebody come say this to my parents. I'm 20, and still my dad scold me for talking to Male classmates over WhatsApp. I delete chats then and thereby, fearing for him😑

I love watching these videos while having lunch. I love your long videos❤️

Fantastic advice👏👏👏👏👏

IT'S A CRIMINAL OFFENCE TO FEED MELTED CHOCOLATE TO A 2 MONTH OLD INFANT. IT MIGHT POSE AS A BIG THREAT TO THE BABY'S HEALTH

You are best 💓 di.. You always give best advice.....

saturday is incomplete without prachi dii...

It's postpartum, as in tum, not trum. Sensible advice, esp in case of Door. In case of Window, I don't know...the letter really riled me so much, the in-laws' complete lack of boundaries and the husband being the "good son". Prachi's last line was damn good.

Hi prachi di! I'm a 17 yr old girl.... And i have a sibling (elder brother 19 yrs old).... We had a fight last year in which he called me "a slut". Out relationship is badly fucked up now... And we don't talk to each other anymore... Can you plz help me to cope up with this... As I m the biggest over thinker of all time. This incident broke me! I cry...whenever I remember all this...i also got suicidal thoughts sometimes...! I weak now! Mentally.💔 I hope I'll get help this time. ❤

Lots of love to you♥️♥️

Hyy prachi... your new subscriber here....I watch 1 video of yours everyday... completely obsessed with your videos ❤️❤️❤️

Loved it♥️

Prachi i love your videosss💕💕💕💕💕💕

Yesterday i saw you video clip on roadies .. they though you was dumb with no sense but now you are educating people about psychological issues etc.. i am impressed ❤

Hey prachi ...was waiting for u r video....

Thank u lot Didi it really helps to build us our relationship with family , friends , and surrounding people we hanging out with ..... Every video have a different life lessons and make correction our thought process 🙏💜😘 thank you so much

Very nice 😍😍 I hope u start professional counseling soon ❤️❤️ Ur words are like Therapy 😍

Relatable.

I was waiting your video😊

U r superb prachi

I think in the first letter there needs to be boundaries set, the brother needs to sit the sister down and explain to her why dating at this age is not right, give her logical/factual reason not feelings/emotional manipulation also the whole beating her up by the family is100% wrong in my view so i agree with prachi on that, but I disagre with prachi when she says that the daughter needs to do whatever she wants(dating wise), There are terrible consequences of making bad decisions at this age, there are girls who get pregnant, catch STD, become bitter due to bad relationships. Even though shes an adult, an uninformed adult would still make the same mistakes as an uninformed minor, so the brother is right in having his concerns just the approach needs to be changed. I completely agree with prachis advise on the second letter, boundaries needs to be set as its your and your husbands baby first and everyone else's later

for the second writer, she's absolutely right because the baby is not providing any consent to upload his/her pictures on social media. and it is a major problem that kids are displayed in social media so often. imagine realizing that your pictures (which might be embarrassing to the kids when they grow older) are all over social media without your consent.

Lots of love for you prachi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

once prachi di recommended that if your relatives are coming over frequently like in the case of window you should rent an apartment or other place to stay a bit far from the current one

Hi Prachi. Thank you for your videos. It is really inspiring.. I have a request please do a Q&A about yourself .. Want to know more and more about you ❤

Addicted to your videos diii....I'm a CA student and now I move your smile with prachi videos to watch later very reluctantly....only after completing a portion of study material I will watch the video....love from Kerala❤

about lies i would say.. i might end up lying to avoid the drama coming from toxic relatives friends.. i might want to avoid being with them saying i am busy.. so selfless or selfish i dnt knw much.. but self love certainly.. :)

Much love prachi di ❤

I too have written to you 💗

I love you prachi dii

Love you ❤️❤️

Di, first letter happened with me, my dad slapping when I had bf. My dad wants to get married and left .

Such a mind blowing answer to question number 1. Wish for a hindi version so I can play in front of my parents

Hi prachi love your vids

I'm elder Sister of 20 year old girl and the situation is quite similar, I came to know about her relationship with a guy and accidentally I met with that person too. I never complain anything to my parents if my siblings done something wrong or when they commit mistakes, instead of telling my parents I always try to help them out of the situation and problems but as an elder one I also give them life lessons and make them understand to be aware of what they're doing and think twice before they done anything in life. I've many examples like that when I sit and talk with them discussing over different issues, emotional, social as well as the personal problems. I want to know that even after understanding these things and taking such course of action if the girl still lying to us most of the time over small things, spending most of her time on calls chats games rather than paying attention towards her studies. Is it okay if she argues to everyone at home on silly things, is it okay if she's thinking and saying that ' aap logon ko main hi galat lgti hu humesha, mujhe hi mar do sb preshani khatm' kind of words. Is it only our (elder one's) responsibility to understand them not theirs to behave normally and think morally sometimes. Sometimes even though elder one's understand their younger siblings, we're not complaining anything to our parents coz we know there's still some stereotypes in our society and a huge generation gap, but tell me is her behaviour normal? What should I change? And now how should I deal this situation? Guide me please😇

How can i send my questions to her?

❤

😍❤️

❤️❤️

Hi Prachi, can you please do video on how to become emotionally mature person and how to find correct life partner. Just a request 🤗

that dislikes from Door's family hahaha

People will be offended whatever we do..

I really wanna write to you .....how can I?

Door, You are right in what you are doing, but just be smart about it. Show her who is the real alpha guy looks like. Who to trust and what kind not to trust. Guys will just mostly pump and dump her in name of dating these days. It's better if u can find a smart way to keep her off dating atleast till 22. 18 year girls are the easiest targets for these type guys. Find a non violent and smart way to make her wait till 22. Use this time to teach her to mature. She just need some safe time to understand men. Once she understands, trust me her expectations will be so high , most men cant get her 😂 she will come to you and ask you find a groom from a good family. And @prachi you need to bring your criticism of Indian tradition a bit down. All the culture of western countries and its allies are collapsing with mental illness, low birth rate, failed family system , father being systematically removed from families in name of feminism, etc. Makes me Glad I am not born there 😂. Indian tradition is designed for both men and women to live a fruitful life depending on the nature of sexes. While we dump some useless acts Let's Not throw away the gems that our culture is made up of Just a constructive criticism ❤️

Please make a video on how to deal with an obsessive partner

Hey prachians squad

Hey window You have scientific reason for why babies should not be exposed to selfies n camera .... it effects their skin and health as they are so small cant even recognize colours effects their brain You can give such reasons and simply say no with gratitude , take away your baby dnt allow any one into the room or use a technical alarm / bell to door , if anyone enters into room you get that bell sound . This may help you thank you .

Hey window, You aren't being unreasonable. You need to stop letting others interfering in your child's life coz this can affect your baby. I am facing something similar coz my mom isn't taking any stand for me and rest of the family members are taking decisions for me. So don't let these things happen and honestly I don't trust my mom because of this. Please don't let your baby go through what I am going through when he/she grows up.

Taking pictures and putting in social media doesn't seem wrong, in early days when baby is younger probably you can control, but when they will little bit grow up ,they will go with their friends and take pictures and put on social media themself " from listening to your questions it seems ( maybe I am wrong or maybe I'm correct) that you are too specific about things ' in early days it may seem as a good mother but when children will grow little bit they will see you like a controlling person and, if I'm correct then this thing will affect you and your children relationship seriously . I understand you that you are mother but, Don't try to control all things because everything is not in our control. Sometime we need to release some control from our hands because if you hold something too tight probably the person may suffocate.

How can i send letter to prachi??

Door, You guys are not "supportive" But "abusive"

Hey prachi di...do you think trust is important in relationship? I'm having some problems with my dad so can please tell whether tell is trust is needed when it comes to father daughter relationships? Pls reply

Is it bad to graduate at the age of 26?I dropped 3 years and Iam so worried about future😢

Another great video. 1. However, isn't cooking up stories lying? 2. Checking phone - isn't it transparency to be able to use partner's phone. Not necessarily checking and stalking but seeing the apps, the albums, the contacts and kind of conversations they have. Isn't it a good way to know about the person? Also, in few cases it can also help catch adultery quite unexpectedly. I am ok with anyone using/going through my phone but I see people not ok with sharing phones even with partners and family. Why so? Doesn't this keeping the phone secret create the doubt that something would be there they don't want you to know?

Hii Prachi di, hope you're doing well, let me tell you first that you've been my virtual therapist in all sense for so long ❤️ I hope this time also you'll help me out of this despair . Di, I'm a 25yr old girl, a doctor by profession, I've been dating a 26 yr old guy of my profession and from same work place for 4 months now, we do have a very busy schedule and he is senior to me in the post so definitely work load and responsibilities are way more than me and I can totally understand that but despite of everything I did expect him to give me a lil' time out of his busy schedule may be a meet up once a month or a phone call once a week atleast, is it too much to ask for ? Even I remain busy but still I manage to make some time for him and I do communicate him myself but somedays I expect him to do the same atleast once in a week, and when I start confronting this to him about this he started ghosting me gradually like he kept accusing me that I'm someone who is very nagging "demanding", is t my demand bare minimum in any relationship di ? And eventually one day he broke up saying in the workplace everybody is seeing us dating and since I'm open to it not denying with the fact that we are dating it's embarrassed him and ruined his reputation, and since I've been very d "demanding" asking about his time while he has no time for me. Di, I'm completely shattered now was I really at fault ? Was I really too demanding ? Should I've hide the fact that we are dating, ppl can anyway see. Di please clarify these . Also let me tell you one thing I'm a very old school thought girl just like you, premarital sex is okay but only with the one I'll end up to in my life, after one month of our dating he introduced me to his mom and things were going pretty smooth both of our parents knew about the things and hence I thought he is the one I'm going to settle down with coz we are not a teenager we weren't dating for just the heck of dating and hence I ended up having sex with him thinking of marrying him, and now I feel like complete emotional fool, where was my fault was I really too demanding to demand for his time ? Please Please help 🙏

Hey prachi di , i need your help Im a 1st year veterinary student and stay in college hostel ... and lately im being silent bullied by my roommate, she is my senior and is just finding issues in everything I do ( here we have to call our seniors as mam and give respect and obey them ) Im very strict in terms of health and my well being . I wake up early and daily make some hot water and malt .n sometimes cook something.. as the food here doesn't suit me and I'm finding it difficult to cope up Apparently she is very disturbed with me .. as I wake up early and it disturbs her (like I take the brush and take bottle so it makes sound and disturbs her sleep ) lately I fell sick so I just made some tulsi water or hibiscus tea.. She is being constantly poking me saying she feels nausea by the smell of my tea and water .. can't get enough sleep and can't read for the exams bcux of me

The brother is saying, we'll support her love marriage. How will she have a love marriage without a love life? And who the hell measures interest in studies based on whether the person is dating or not. Poor girl. I don't think the brother will understand anything Prachi di said.

Hi Prachi ,in case of window I am disagree with you for some reason , the grandparents are so important in children overall development and a family love , stopping them from meeting their grandchild is not good they have also right to spend time with their grandchild.i know the behaviour of window in- lows are not appreciable but it is not fair to stop meeting them all coins has two sides Prachi, if in case of window's parents did the same behaviour then she must correct the action but not stopping from meeting the grand parents .remainber grand parents are important Prachi.

I firmly believe that in first case , it's much better to get the phone away rather then lodging a FIR or file an abortion petition.

(window) ... When a baby comes in a house every person is very much excited.... And loving and pampering them is the way of showing affection towards them.... I don't think it is wrong for the in laws coming to visit them..... Yes it is wrong to not maintaining higine and being careless ( giving the baby chocolate)... But either way it's very normal for the people in family to do this... And it's OK if the younger sisters post pictures of your baby... After all they are too related with the baby and they also care for her.... Please tell me if I am wrong somewhere... Just kept my opinion.... ❤ lots of love for Prachi do💖

I thought people had a great sense of entitlement in the west until Prachi read the second letter 😆

Wrt first letter What is wrong with these people? Have they lost their mind or what This is 21st century for god's sake May door and his parents get some sanity of mind This is a common issue in India and then people ask why India isn't developing...bcoz of these idiots.

Just saw your roadies audition , why had you gone there , seriously😅
