Welcome Life Guide for Class 10 PSEB Inter-Personal Relationship Textbook Questions and Answers

Question 1.
What did you feel after reading this play?
Answer:
After reading this play, we felt that we must not misbehave with the elders but should behave with them in a good way. When we were children, they raised us with great love and when they are old enough to do nothing, we should not turn away from them but serve them with the same love. It gives us their blessings and also inspires our children how to behave with the elders.

Question 2.
How do you care for your elders?
Answer:

  • We never misbehave with our elders. Instead, we talk with them with great affection. This makes them happy no matter how much difficulty they are facing.
  • We lovingly feed them so that they do not feel isolated.
  • We sit lovingly with our elders and listen to their life experiences so that we must not make the mistakes in life that they may have made.
  • Occasionally, we should sit and talk with them so that they should not feel isolated.

Question 3.
Which character of the play, you find the most tolerating person?
Answer:
I find Romi, the grandson, as the most tolerating character in the play. The reason is he loves his grandmother a lot but he can’t do anything for her. He observes how his father Karanbir and mother Simran misbehave with his grandmother. Many times, he opposes it but is helpless. His grandmother is sent to an old age home but he is unable to do anything. He is having no option left except to show patience.

Question 4.
Give your opinion about the characters of the play.

  1. Grandmother
  2. Romi
  3. Mom
  4. Papa

Answer:
1. Grandmother. She is the finest character of this short play because she knew that Karanbir is her adopted son and instead of saying anything else, she asks him to send her to an old age home. It will stop daily’s infighting that is going on in the house. She lives in hot conditions in the old age home but calls her son to donate two fans and a fridge so that others can have relief from the scorching heat. In this way, she endures every sorrow as a matter of fate.

2. Romi. Romi is the most tolerating character of the short play because he loves his grandmother a lot, but he can’t do anything for his grandmother. He even fights with his parents for his grandmother but they never care for his emotions. That’s why he seems quite tolerating.

3. Mom (Simran). Simran has played the character of a daughter-in-law in this play and she is of double character. On one side she persecutes her mother-in-law and forces her husband to send her to the old age home and on the other side, she threatens her brother to take care of their mother. In this way, she is portrayed as a cruel daughter-in-law and a loving daughter.

4. Papa (Karanbir). Karanbir is a character of the play who sends his mother to the old age home. He never cares about his son and hardly shows any love for his mother. Finally, when he comes to know that he is the adopted son, he decides to take his mother back to their home.

Question 1.
How does the short play begin?
Answer:
The play begins in the drawing-room of the house where grandmother and her grandson Romi are sitting and playing. Grandson asks grandmother to play with him but she refuses as she is tired. Then the grandson asks his grandmother that what is the meaning of ‘Ominous*. At first, the grandmother avoids him by calling him small to understand but in the end, she tells him that the person is Ominous who himself is bad and thinks bad for others and the one whose house is always in trouble.

Question 2.
Why doesn’t Simran (mother) want her son to play with his grandmother?
Answer:
Simran did not like her mother-in-law. When the mother-in-law coughs, she thinks that she is suffering from T.B. and by playing with his grandmom, Romi will also get suffered from the same. Along with this, she also says that her mother-in¬law never does any household work and coughs up all day. That’s why Simran doesn’t want her son to play with his grandmother.

Question 3.
What grandmother says after seeing her son and daughter-in-law have a fight?
Answer:
When Karanbir comes back home, Simran speaks very bad about his mother. Simran also says that the old woman does not know what disease she has contracted and coughs up all day. When the grandmother hears a fight between them, she tells her son that there is no need to fight. It’s better if he sends her to any old age home where she will spend the rest of her life. That’s why Karanbir left his mother at the old age home.

Question 4.
Why does grandmother call her son to the old age home?
Answer:
She spends the first six months at the old age home with great problems but after that, she calls her son. Simran and Karanbir think that she is on her death bed and that’s why she has called Karanbir. When they visit the old age home, she asks Karanbir to donate two fans over there as it’s quite hot out there. She also asks him to donate a fridge as well as the water is too hot during summers. She tells Karanbir that when his son Romi leaves him in the old age home, his last days will be spent comfortably.

Question 5.
When does Karanbir realize his mistake?
Answer:
When Karanbir went to meet his mother at the old age home, she asks him to donate two fans and a fridge over there. At the moment, when Karanbir was talking to his mother, the Manager of the old age home comes there, recognises him and tells him that the husband of the old lady, Hardev Singh Brar, adopted him from the same old age home. After listening to this, Karanbir realizes his mistake and take back his mother with him.

Answer:
An individual makes many relationships during his lifetime. Some relationships last a lifetime but some relationships break down along the way and remain in a comer of the heart. Many times, we realize that this relationship will not last for long. It’s better to stop it here. That’s why we should end such a relationship in a proper way. We must talk to the other person and politely tell him/her that now it is not possible to carry on with the relationship. It’s better to move on. This is the best way to move on from the relationship.

Long Answer Type Questions:

Question 1.
“All relationships have social boundaries.” Explain the statement.
Answer:
Our society has made some rules that our relationships are bound to remain within some limits. In addition to this, it is also told that how. much boundary is required in every relationship. That’s why we never cross our boundaries. Our parents, teachers, friends etc. continuously tell us about such boundaries. That’s why we must identify such boundaries and check the limits made by society. If we will not do the same and violate the limits, it will not be good for us as well as for society. Relationships inside the home have closeness but relationships outside the home are artificial and have less closeness. It depends upon our love and intensity about that particular relationship. Many times we make a very good relationship with a stranger and occasionally we have sour relationships with our blood relatives. Relationships are not easy to maintain. It is not like drawing a line on paper with a pencil. It is a relationship that cannot end quickly. That’s why it is a must to maintain the boundaries of relationships.

Question 2.
Which things should be kept in mind while breaking up or leaving a relationship?
Answer:
We all live in social life and while living a social life, we make many relationships. Some relationships last a lifetime but some relationships end up along the way. While ending a relationship, we must keep a few things in mind so that if in the future, a need arises to revive that relationship, we would easily do that. We must keep following things in mind while ending a relationship.

  • Remember the time spent with the person and thank him or her well.
  • Leave sour memories and only remember and share the good memories.
  • If you want to keep in contact with that person, share each other’s mobile numbers.
  • If you don’t trust the person, then don’t be emotional and don’t share personal information with that person.
  • Don’t get angry with that person or try to get revenge.

That’s why it is said that it would be nice to end a story at a nice turn that can’t be taken to the end.
