Kural Number: 0069 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 02 - இல்லறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 007 - புதல்வரைப் பெறுதல்; குறள் எண்: 0069}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 02 - Family Ethics; Chapter: 007 - Having Children; Kural Number: 0069}

ஈன்ற பொழுதிற் பெரிதுவக்கும் தன்மகனைச் 
சான்றோன் எனக்கேட்ட தாய்

When children are called as scholars;
mother feels happier

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: A mother will feel happier than the time when she gave birth - on hearing others say that her children are scholars.

(Likewise...)

A father will feel happier than the time when they were conceived - on hearing the first call as "Daddy" by his children.
