Child upbringing is a process that goes on from infancy to adulthood; it involves promoting and supporting the physical, social, financial, emotional and intellectual developments. From talking and reading to infants to inculcating values in a child, parents play a great role in the life of a child. In a rapidly changing world parenting is subject to fads and changing trends. It is rightly said that a child comes to this world like a blank slate, therefore it is important that parents give their children a good start by providing them with unconditional love and nurturing them with acceptance. Counseling for single parents in India or outside India gives support to those struggling with the challenges of parenting- all alone."
Parental Pressures
We have always wanted to be perfect parents and we expect our children to grow up in a perfect manner. In the process of defining what that ‘perfect’ can be , we end up comparing ourselves to others around and get disappointed when the results don’t match our expectations . Being pushy or compelling the child to live up to the demands of the society today can lead to unwanted stress and anxieties in both the parent and the child. Encouragement and healthy interactions can help the kid grow in a healthy manner in all aspects.

Sometimes in the process of juggling between the demands of work and taking care of the child, it is natural to feel burdened. At times like that, it is healthy to talk to someone who can help you lighten up.
