Why Parents have to Grow too?

Our Kids... Growing every year, every day, every moment. In order to meet all their needs, parents will also have to grow every moment. Grow with your kids, cherish them.

Gender Bias

Don't Confuse Children by indirectly criticising the other gender

Sometimes, the set notions about how a child belonging to a particular gender should behave are rather silly. For a child, relating to his/her gender is important, but we have to be careful that s/he does not develop any animosity or a strong dislike and/or disrespect for the other gender.
