At a party like that, Maha woiuld definely be "on stage" and on his best behavior. And who can resist a beautiful child, especially your own.However, if you consider how Maharaji treated other family members, his brothers, his mother and his nephews, and you begin to wonder what kind of father he really was to those kids.
I would think with his drinking, affairs, his temper and absolute dictatorial attitude he was in for quite a handful with his kids as teens. I can't imagine that household was anything other than crazily disfunctional with the narsicctic (sp) Lord of the Universe at the family helm.
