Director of DTS, Co-ordinator of ‘Create India Jaipur’ and also the editor of Parenting Magazine, “Mums and Dads,” Mrs.Amina Martin, who was the resource person, dwelt at length on successful parenting. Observing that ours is a society that views successful parenting as the need to only excel in academic field, get good job and be financially sound, she however stressed that to be successful in our parenting we need to show unconditional love, be a role model and discipline the children with consequences. As parents, sometimes we are confused between love, discipline and consequence she said, and pointed out that love is choosing the best for the one we love, even if it is a hard discipline, further stating that in the long run it would yield fruitful results.
In successful parenting we need to focus on overall purpose, objectives and goals keeping the end in mind, she maintained. Harping on being good role models to our children, Amina said that even if we have overall purpose yet, if we are not good models to them, it will not help. “Being a good model to children is very important because it is not taught but caught,” she added. She further opined that a child need to know what is right and wrong and also need to develop boundaries. She further said that a child in the age group of 0-5 years is a very crucial time to instill values, principles and develop their gifted skills.
The seminar organized by Ministers’ Hill Baptist Higher Secondary School was attended by concerned parents, Principal and staffs of MHBHSS Kohima.
