Every kid born in the Indian society is labelled with so many expectations and boundaries that by the time they grow up they start acting like a part of the society and don't go beyond the limits of the society to think and become something different and creative enough. In the similar way a girl child faces tons of problems in each stage of her life. It's the problems in her life that helps her keep going through those boundaries and far beyond.

Such girls are not given the freedom and the opportunity to be a part of the free society and have their own will. 

The mental health of such married women goes into the drain as they are not loved and protected in the marriage relationship. Due to this they feel distant and lonely in their marriage. Such things make their life miserable and impacts the marriage overall. 

Certain individuals defined marriage adjustment as the state in which there is an overall feeling between husband and wife ,of happiness and satisfaction with their marriage and with each other. This implies experiencing satisfactory relationship between spouses characterized by mutual concern, care, understanding and acceptance. Such kind of marriage adjustment doesn't exist nowadays. There is no more adjustment in marriage and people have become more open to stressing and pressurizing the life of a housewife. 

For an Indian housewife things become difficult as their in laws are angry people, depressing, unable to understand emotions, lack of husband's love, lack of support, degrades their mental health and makes them confused, unhappy and doubtful in their marriage.  This leads to breakup and divorce. The number of divorce cases of married couple are increasing and thus it leads to broken relationships and problems within their married life.
