She explained that the responsibilities of raising children can only be fully understood after experiencing parenthood firsthand. Sharing her feelings, Kajol wrote, “#Happyparentsday ..We are all parents now and the sheer responsibility of being a parent is something that u truly don’t understand till it happens to you.. and u never know how much ur parents love u and have sacrificed for u till it happens to u . So this is a gratitude post to all my parents for loving me so much. I’m so very loved and therefore so very blessed.”
