Parenting requires parents to have patience:

- Parenting is no easy task and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. It takes patience, time, and a lot of trial and error to figure out what will work for your family. But as any parent will tell you, it can be worth the effort.


Sometimes parents think they need to correct every little thing their children do or they’ll never learn right from wrong. But as adults we know that this isn’t the case. If we make an error at work, we don’t get corrected by our boss every time we do it – we just try not to repeat it. 


Parents have a very important role in their child's wellbeing and character. Parents are the first teachers of children. How parents deal with children everyday is very crucial.


Here are some ways that patience in parenting can help your family. The Best Ways to Keep Your Patience as a Parent.


Why do we need to cultivate patience? What is the best way to cultivate patience as a parent?


Follow the 5 quick rules below:


1. Don't be quick to anger. 

Children don't realize when their behavior is inappropriate. The negative reaction towards your child's behavior can create very adverse circumstances. Keep your anger in check.


2. Don't be quick to respond. 

Avoid hitting your child when he or she tries to touch you, or do anything else that will hurt your temper. When you respond to something, it can easily start a verbal cycle. Your child will begin repeating their actions. It is better to not react to the first incident.


3. Love your children.

Maintaining a loving relationship with your child is the key to keeping your patience. Make time to play with them and talk with them. 

 

 4. Don't judge them. 

Being a constant critic is not the solution.


5. Be role model yourself.

Treat your child with love and affection. Show them empathy. Try to make them feel good and safe. Teach them about respecting others and other's rights. Show your child that you value your own time as well. Appreciate children for their positive attitude and how well they can listen.


Keeping your patience as a parent is very important:

Becoming a parent will make you more patient than you are. It will also improve your confidence in handling your children. You will learn to share love with your child. That is your role as a parent. It's important to know how to remain patient and at the same time show love and affection to your child. Always remember, that your child is the most important human being in your life. Take care of them and feed them well. 


Conclusion

Parenting is one of the most crucial jobs in the world. Every child has the potential to become a successful and confident individual. Being a parent, gives you the opportunity to influence your child and to shape their future.

Happy parenting.

Seven key differences between Parenting in India and Dutch:

 - A Dutch mother, Ivana, recently shared her experiences living in Mumbai for nine years, highlighting seven key differences between parenting in India. She emphasises that neither approach is "better" or "worse," but rather they involve different trade-offs.  Key Differences in Parenting: According to her viral reflections on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWJv7RLDM-z/), the primary contrasts include: * Community vs. Solo Marathon: In the Netherlands, parenting often feels like a "solo marathon". In Mumbai, she experiences a "real village" where family, neighbours, and the building community are always available to help. * Independence vs. Interdependence: Dutch culture raises children to be "fierceley independent," such as cycling to school alone at age eight. Indian parenting focuses on interdependence and being part of a larger, supportive system. * Child-Friendly Public Spaces: She notes that children in India are acce...

REOPENING THE SCHOOL- SOME SUGGESTIONS (Suggestions via- IIEP_UNESCO):

- The COVID19 pandemic has led to another crisis of reasonable ideas in order to resolve all sorts of emerging issues in front. Educational plannings in times of crisis seem to be another challenge because of the judgmental dilemma about the importance of education as well as health.  However, focusing on balancing the importance of both the aspects- education and health is focal. What and how implementable plannings could be done is the big question to be responded by most of the concerned authorities and stakeholders. Currently, school founders, principals, administrators and concerned heads are considering many ways to win this situation.  There are very key areas which the school leaders should consider- Finance, Infrastructure and Human resources. Here we are discussing some ideas and suggestions that have been addressed regarding the reopening of the schools (Please refer the full resource from UNESCO at the end of this article).  Image source: ChristopherSalem 1.

# Beyond the Answer Key: Teaching Children *How* to Think

 - Nurturing Thinkers, Not Memorizers:  A Guide for Educators Think back to the last time a child asked you a "Why" question. Why is the sky blue? Why do birds fly? Why do we have to sleep? Young children can ask dozens of questions an hour. It is their way of mapping out a massive, unfamiliar world. As parents and educators, our natural instinct is to give them an immediate answer. We want to be helpful, and we want to share our knowledge. But when we provide the answer right away, we accidentally turn off their mental engine. ### What to Think vs. How to Think When we give an instant answer, the child learns *what* to think. They receive a static fact to memorize. But when we pause and invite them into the discovery process, they learn *how* to think. They learn to evaluate clues, connect dots, and build logic. The magic isn't in the destination (the answer); the magic is in the journey (the thinking). ### The Four-Word Shift The next time a child brings you a curious q...

School Operations Manual:

- A school is a complex organization where multiple activities should co-ordinate in sync. Each stake holder - Management, Teacher, Students, Parents and supportive staff, everyone has an important role to play. All these stake holders need to know their job, roles and responsibilities, and also the structure, policy and procedure of their work. Thus a team has come up with a 'school operations manual' to support schools in designing their school policies and procedures, which will help to strengthen the school system.  This manual outlines the significant policies and procedures covering a wide spectrum of activities in a school, starting from affiliation, curriculum planning, extra-curricular activities, value education, school administration, statutory compliances, HR, etc.  The core objective of this manual is to communicate, describe and help in implementing the best practices, policies and procedures so as to bring standardisation in our schools through collaboration. Ev...

Online Schools and eclectic curriculum:

 - Online schools, while offering flexibility and accessibility, come with several disadvantages, particularly when they employ a mixed eclectic curriculum. An "eclectic curriculum" typically means drawing from various teaching philosophies and methods, aiming to personalize learning. While this sounds good in theory, in an online setting, it can lead to unique challenges. Here are the disadvantages of online school, especially one offering a mixed eclectic curriculum: I. General Disadvantages of Online School:  * Lack of Face-to-Face Interaction and Social Isolation:    * Reduced Engagement: Students miss out on spontaneous discussions, immediate feedback, and the dynamic energy of a physical classroom.    * Isolation: The absence of in-person interaction with peers and instructors can lead to feelings of loneliness, reduced motivation, and a diminished sense of community.    * Limited Social Skill Development: Opportunities for developing crucia...
