Hello,
I am having a family feud because of my father. My father is also a lawyer but he stopped practising a while back. He was in working in a bank as a Law officer but then he quit as he wanted to pursue his own business but he failed big time and due to which, we all family members had to witness pretty bad time. To be honest, you may think that I am exaggerating the issue but we seriously did find life very difficult because of financial crunch and secondly because of his behavior towards us. We all were like serious burden on him and I agree to some extent but still sometimes love and compassion makes you get by but it was just missing from his end. We came to Delhi about 7-8 years ago and I and my brother started to work and bear the family expenses. My father quit his job around 18 years ago and didnt participate a single bit ever since we came to Delhi and I and my younger brother started earning. I got my sister married and even them my father didnt participate since he didnt have anything and he also dont have zeal to work.
Now the feud is that he has started abusing my mother and us and to be honest with all the hardwork and effort I and my brother put in to make ends meet, doesnt make us eligible for all these tantrums and abuse. I simply asked my father out because we cant bear the pain and agony because of it and now he wants to claim on anything and everything we have since as per him he made us achieve all that which is a complete white lie and my mother should vouch for it. He never talked to us nicely, he never thought of our future and as a responsible father, he wanted me to work as a driver or mechanic in a garage when I was fresh out of school and finally he managed to got me a job of Rs 1584 in Ludhiana in 2002 (We used to live in Agra). I know how it was for me and what all I had to go through to have a 2 time meal so far away from my family.
Precisely, I cant deal with my Dad and honestly we have served to every single bit of his expense in last 7-8 years and I spent everything I have earned in last 7 years on my sisters wedding, which ideally should have been his duty. I would like him to leave and work on his own and I am also ready to pay for some of his expenses if he agrees to stay away from us so just wanted to know what could he claim for and if it is my legal duty to provide him for? Also, what steps he could take to claim for it?
I know with the whole story mentioned, I may have earned a dreadful figure myself but believe me, when you are at the receiving end, then only you would know what I go through.
Thanks in anticipation.!!
