From infancy to adolescence - Free counselling service for Indian Mums and Dads
As the parent of a 21 year old son with ADHD, and a 19 year old daughter, I've spent a large part of the last 22 years attempting to educate myself on how to be the best parent possible.
In this quest I've lost track of the number of books I've read on child psychology, early years' development, adolescence, special needs, behaviour problems, parenting tips and more . . . an endless stream of case studies and articles from which I have drawn both inspiration (for the successes), and desperation (for my failures).
In addition to learning from my day-to-day parenting experiences, complemented by the above 'academic' approach, I have also taken time out to retrain as a teacher, study transactional analysis, work with special needs children, counsel parents/families, develop curriculum and more . . . all in an attempt to become that elusive 'perfect parent'.
And have I succeeded? No yet. But am passionately working on it!
Hence the birth of Made 4 Mums. I have benefited from a wide range of information and knowledge gained from friends, experts, family, community, professionals and most of all learning from my own mistakes; how to handle a child with croup at 3.00 am, how to motivate a hyperactive kid to listen, how to convert a fussy eater into a foodie, how to know when your teenager is telling the truth, where to look for help if your child is failing in school and more . . .
However my learning has often been painful and sometimes too late to be of full benefit. Time then to change this for others; to use technology to unite Mums throughout India by setting up a 'digital village' designed to provide Help 4 Mums, Knowledge 4 Mums, Information 4 Mums, Empowerment 4 Mums!
So if you have a problem or need some confidential advice from a non-judgemental fellow parent and/or professional, join 'Made 4 Mums' today and post your question.
Warm regards.
