Mother Exchange

154,881 views
Mothers everywhere worry about their children when they go away to school. And children everywhere miss their families, in particular, their mothers' cooking, when they are away from home. This innovative program, started by an edible oil company, allows mothers to give and send a bit of love and comfort to their children. Watch how.

I fully agree with Lucy Fryer.

Oh, no, no, no, NO! Please! As if the mother as family servant for 20 years isn't enough, they're still mothering their sons in adulthood! What, I wonder, would the film have been like if the mothers had been cooking for their DAUGHTERS? But no, daughters are are supposed to know how to cook for themselves. And besides, daughters are just bred to serve the next generation of young men (that's if they escape being KILLED because they're a baby girl and not a baby boy!) GET A LIFE, ladies! There's more to you than being the handmaiden of men! Cooking for another person's son is no love, it's a desperate need to be needed!

Inspiring film but I did not know where Chennai was:Chennai, on the Bay of Bengal in eastern India, is the capital of the Tamil Nadu state. It's home to Fort St. George, built in 1644 and now a museum showcasing the city’s roots as a British military garrison and East India Company trading outpost. Religious sites include Kapaleeshwarar Temple, adorned with carved and painted gods, and St. Mary’s, a 17th-century Anglican church.
