Renee had to apologize when a boy pulled Sushmita Sen’s daughter’s skirt, the reason is both right and wrong

The boy pulled Renee’s skirt

Sushmita shared an anecdote related to Renee’s childhood on Rhea Chakraborty’s talk show. In this, she told that one day she got a call from school that her elder daughter had hit a boy’s ear with a pencil. The actress was shocked to hear this, because she knew that Renee was not the kind of girl who would be so aggressive.

When Sushmita reached school and talked to Renee, she shared that a boy was pulling her skirt. Since the teacher was busy, Renee warned him/her, but the boy still did not listen and did the same thing again.

Renee shared with her mother that the boy started calling her stupid along with his/her antics, which she could not tolerate and when she got up with a pencil in her hand, it accidentally went into the boy’s ear.

Sushmita apologized to Renee only

After listening to her daughter’s entire story, Sushmita asked her to apologize. Renee was shocked and protested saying that it was the boy’s mistake, so why would she apologize. At this Sushmita again reiterated her point and asked her to say sorry.

Renee got irritated and did exactly what her mother wanted. After saying sorry to the boy, she burst out and said, ‘Today you made me do exactly the opposite of what you taught me till today’.

You don’t become what someone says

Seeing Renee upset, Sushmita explained to her that she reacted when the boy called her stupid, but is her name really stupid? Renee replied no. Then the actress further said that you accepted that word and associated it with yourself, only then you felt bad. Many people in the world will call you by many names, but this cannot change your reality.

Sushmita further told Riya that people even labelled me a gold digger, but it did not matter to me. Because I know what I am and the truth will not change no matter what anyone says. And this was the lesson for Renee.

There is no doubt that what Sushmita says is 100% right that it shouldn’t matter what people say to you.

Especially women should become more hard hearted about this. Because women are judged for everything from their body to their face shape and skin color.

And if he/she does not fit into the framework created by society, then he/she is given many names. But one should not let himself get affected by this and should keep moving ahead with strength.

But how far is the apology justified?

How far was it right to ask Renee to say sorry to that boy? It is true that she got hurt because of Renee, but what he/she did can harm any girl on an emotional and mental level.

This step is against the dignity of the girl. In such a situation, instead of apologizing, Renee deserved more forgiveness. If the girl does not react to such actions or words, then things will become difficult for her and as always, women will continue to be trampled under the feet of others.

It is important to choose the right course of action

Every girl and woman should be taught how to react in such a situation. The right course of action will not only punish the wrongdoer but will also ensure the dignity and safety of the girl. If this happens, the girl’s morale will not be broken and she will not start blaming herself.

It is important for everyone to understand that while living with parents, a girl remains under a protective shield due to which her gentle nature always remains intact and also appears admirable.

But if she goes out into the outside world with this fragile personality, she will not be able to stand on her own feet for long. This is why she should be taught from a young age how to react to things in the right way, how to apologize when needed and how to raise her voice against wrongdoings.

By the way, what do you think about what Sushmita taught her daughter?
