A motivated child has the power to overcome challenges at his/ her own pace, an uplifted parent has the will to guide her children all through to adulthood and an inspired teacher provides the best of knowledge to her students. Your child’s mind isn’t a container to be filled rather a fire to be kindled; it takes the efforts of parents and teachers to bring sustainable change in the life of your child.
Be the first one to build self-esteem in your child, trust your children’s abilities and correct their weakness. Have a purpose of raising them in the best of conditions. Motivate them all along and let them explore more on their own to appreciate the real life experiences.
