Well yes, you guessed it right. This is one question that plagues many people. Wait - add another question, "Tu jaanta hai mera baap kaun hai? (Do you know who my father is?)" - this is when the father of a son/daughter is a person in power. My response to these people will be - don't you know who your father is?
In India, people have this tendency to be 'egoistic' rather than proud of what their parents achieved. Yes, it is great that their parent(s) achieved in their lifetime. And much appreciated. However, it is the achievement of the parent. Not the child. The father or mother was a governor. Or an IAS officer. Or the business tycoon. Or a beauty queen. Or someone in Indian politics. But, what have you done as a son or a daughter? Be proud of your own achievements; not of others.
