Q1. Tell us a bit about your background, education and childhood.
Umer: I was raised in Multan in a very traditional family. I grew up in fortunate circumstances, with a strong yet intimate man as my father, three amazing younger siblings, and my mother and two aunts (who also lived with us) altogether providing thrice the usual intensity of motherly affection afforded to people. This provided a foundation unlike any other. After O levels, I went to Aitchison College for A levels, learned from the challenges of living in a hostel, and then went to USA to continue my studies. There, I encountered amazing teachers, colleagues, and disciplines, and fell deeply in love with philosophy, film, religious studies, psychology, and music. Now I live and work in Philadelphia, USA. {Read More…}

The song is aimed at creating awareness about issues related to parental neglect, which sometimes translate to emotionally abusive relationships, romantic or otherwise. For how much suffering it causes people, this subject is still not very well understood.
