Though parenting is the toughest and most important job in the world, we do not get any prior training about how to do it. We do it based on how we saw our parents raised us, or we just go by the ‘gut’ feeling'. Would you do the same thing in any other job in the world? No way!!  

There are many parenting books, websites, and shows out there about good parenting...but do they speak directly to you and your experience as you bring up your kids? In today's age of social media, we are all 'global parents' raising our kids to become "global citizens". As Asian Indian parents irrespective of what part of the world we live in, we parent in the "context of our culture" (which is diverse in itself depending on what part of India/world you grew up in). However, our 'overarching goal for parenting' is the same!  " To raise self-reliant, respectful, compassionate human beings who are happy and satisfied with life". If this is your parenting goal and you are a parent raising future global citizens, then this podcast is for you!! Come and join the journey of “Global Desi Parenting”!

Ep.32 What does education mean for you? ft. Dr. Meenal Paranjpe

There is no right or wrong way to parent a child and what works in parenting differs from person to person and family to family.
But there are some universal parenting principles that we cannot deny. It is important to keep updating our “parenting software” and keep it dynamic and ever-evolving.

बच्चे को पालने का कोई सही या गलत तरीका नहीं है और पालन-पोषण के तरीके एक व्यक्ति से दूसरे व्यक्ति और एक परिवार से दूसरें परिवार में भिन्न होते है।
लेकिन कुछ सार्वत्रिक सत्य, universal parenting principles है जिन्हें हम नकार नहीं सकते! यह महत्वपूर्ण है कि हम अपने “पेरेंटिंग सॉफ़्टवेयर” को निरंतर विकसित करते रहें.
