appearance<\/a>, she reflected on how the traditional family dynamic has quietly reversed. Where she once turned to her own mother for advice, she now finds herself calling her children whenever she needs help setting up an app, managing passwords or navigating new technology.<\/p>\nShe said artificial intelligence and digital tools, while unfamiliar to her generation, have become second nature to her children. “The generation has flipped; earlier we used to call our mothers to ask for help, now we call our children to ask how to set up an account or manage a password.”<\/p>\n
The actor said this shift should encourage children to be more patient and understanding towards their parents as they adapt to an increasingly digital world.<\/p>\n
Recalling a family trip to Venice, Rubina shared a personal experience that reinforced this feeling. She had long dreamed of riding a gondola through the canals while singing and recording the moment, but when the opportunity finally came, her daughter dismissed the idea as “cringe”, leaving her feeling hurt.<\/p>\n
Although she now looks back on the incident as a memory she hopes to recreate one day, Rubina admitted that what affected her most was her children’s reluctance to be on camera. “That is something that really puts me off. I feel so hurt when children hide their faces the moment a mother turns on the camera.”<\/p>\n
The conversation also touched on gratitude, parenting and family values. Rubina stressed that parents devote their lives to caring for their children, and if those values are to be carried forward, children should treat their own parents with the same respect, compassion and consideration.<\/p>\n
Discussing marriage and choosing life partners for children, she said there is no such thing as a perfect decision. Instead, she described the process as one of trial and error, requiring parents to remain attentive and adapt as circumstances change.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, Rubina said empathy should remain at the heart of every parent-child relationship, urging children to think carefully about how their words and actions may affect their parents. “Children need to be careful, too. They should think before taking any action or saying anything that might hurt their parents.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
