LINK Parents Sue Son, Daughter-in-Law for Not Producing Grandchild
A couple in India are taking legal action against their son and his wife, accusing the younger couple of inflicting "mental cruelty" on them by not producing a grandchild.
Sanjeev Prasad, 61, and his wife Sadhana, 57, say their son, Shrey Sagar, and his wife, Shubhangi Sinha, should pay them $650,000 if the couple does not give them a grandchild within a year, according to the BBC.
The older couple, who live in the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand, told the Times of India that the sum is what they spent on Shrey, who is now 35. This includes a $65,000 bill for Shrey's pilot training in the US in 2006 and a luxury car gifted to him for his wedding.

Because India is such an underpopulated country, they need all the children they can produce!

Guess they're not Hindus, believing in and accepting their KARMA?

Wow! How to alienate your child. I support the younger couple to do what they want to do, and if they do have a child to keep that child as far from the grandparents as they can.
