In re: My disinterest in Teacher's Day.

This Teacher's Day thing is more relevant for people from less prosperous economic backgrounds.

I hardly managed to learn anything from school or college teachers.

Initially my mother taught me, then I had commercial tution teachers & towards the end I taught myself.

Growing up in a commercial city like Mumbai had an impact on my having zero interest in things like Teacher's Day.

I guess interest in this day is more in Delhi even among affording classes given the city's thriving academic & linked NGO culture.

I am sure that such interest is a LOT more among prosperous provincial freaks who live in or have recently moved to metropolitan cities from Tier 2 cities given prevalent value systems.
