In
a male driven society, husbands and sons must be able to support
their wives and mothers realistically and be proudly present in
their homes: this can be done only when there is a labor source
in their native village.
Almost
all the strong men have left and gone far away to the other side
of the northern border, where they will try to earn a few dollars
picking fruit in Florida or some other state of the USA. Their worn
out grandparents, their restless children and newborn babies remained
to be looked after at home.
When
the father comes back for a few months, he will be able to see the
child that he never got to know.
