Positive parenting

Is it best to guide your children every step of the way? Make sure they are perfectly dolled up for all spheres of life? Is it a parenting failure if the kid doesn’t excel in either academics, sports or fine arts? How much pressure is too much pressure?

Or are you a lazy, chilled out parent who let’s the kid be? One who isn’t worried about grades and excellence but rather focused on the learning experience? Isn’t this a cover for your inadequacy to multi-task?

All these myriad questions come to every first time parent as the child starts schooling. Till then it’s you and your kid but now it’s a bunch of other kids and their parents too! Comparisions and contrasts are but natural. Making you wonder if your parenting style is too lenient or too strict!

And there is no golden answer. It’s what fits your family, your circumstances, your equation with your partner and so on. So stay on the course you’ve chosen, just keep your eyes and ears peeled for learning what’s happening in your kid’s world! 😇
