The wife can do it for her parents. Don’t see why you think she should depend on him for it.

All these things like getting first class ticket, showing them your house / car has almost no value… Supporting them financially remotely is fake and is just a kind of ostentatiousness.

Hi Baidya! It is good to see NRIs relate to this story and share the joy of flying out their parents in business class for their comfort. Thank you for sharing this with us and other Indians.

Young IT professionals in the US can afford this and quite a few are doing so.
A Young man, I know, Saptarsi Das [nephew of my sister-in-law] got a job in Silicon Valley after completing his Ph.D. two years ago brought his parents to the US from Kolkata in Business class at his first opportunity. Rather than going to India himself for a bride and getting married, he opted to bring his retired parents here instead first.

I bought a business class ticket for My 89 year old father who used to endure the long flights o economy class many times earlier. He was so happy to travel in comfort it was heartwarming. I am only sorry that I couldn’t do that for my mother before she passed away.

They have seen enough struggle in their life . They never lived for themselves. They sacrificed their comforts to take care of their family. Now it’s our time to take care of their needs.
