[Śrī Tinku asked: These days parents give a majority of their property to their sons only. However, sons might not take care of their parents once they got their property. Does the responsibility of taking care of parents belongs to only their sons who inherited their property or daughters also have the responsibility to take care of their parents even when they didn't receive much of their parent’s property? Generally, it is said that a daughter-in-law must take care of her husbands’ parents. Does a son-in-law also have the responsibility to take care of his wife’s parents?]
Swāmi replied: Taking care of parents involves personal service and spending money for their service. The responsibility lies either on sons or on daughters or both based on receipt of the property from parents. If property is taken and in return sufficient care is not taken, it is a sin and such issue, be male or female will be punished by God.
