National traditions of India
Some Indians are so superstitious that they, for instance, will never cut their hair and nails on certain days of the week. Before going to a doctor, a typical Indian will try all possible natural remedies. Indians are often ready to blame anyone or anything for their failures and problems except themselves: government, weather, teachers, policemen, drivers, and so on. Indian parents have an unpleasant habit of comparing their children with those of others, not in favor of the former. This is one of the reasons for Indians’ dependence on the opinions of others. This dependency can seriously affect a person’s life; for example, forcing him to choose a more prestigious profession instead of the one that he really likes, to get married not based on love, but so that their neighbors and relatives approve their choice.
