Fantastic read. I agree Asian kids are lot more nerdy. Take heart in the biblical prediction that Geeks will rule the earth 🙂
Sincerely i don’t know what is right parenting and what is bad parenting. being a kid of two boys aged between 4-5, everyday for me is a roller coaster ride. Though I want to be a light heart mother, but I am surmount by various factors that envisage a regime in their lives.nBut yes i completely agree to follow kids interest and guide them to their comfort level. So if my kid want to be a musician or an artist, so be it.nyes it definitely involves understanding our kids, so love them nurture them unconditionally.nI would not say west is best, but yes it definitely gives them the freedom to be themselves, not what the parents desire them to be and that for me is the biggest freedom.nOne word for all moms and dad’s…try to live your dreams yourself and not through your children as they have their own dreams to live for.
Bhabhi, superbly written…Brilliant Quote at the end. You should see the changes in the Indian education system now…Yes, the pressure to get good grades is always there…but, the influence of the Internation Schools is slowly catching up. nThe promise of a better future with good education and social responsibility is a must
