We asked our experts on the biggest challenges faced by parents today.

Deeya Singh said, “To be able to raise normal, healthy kids with a strong spiritual and moral centre, to be able to raise discerning children who have developed their own strong sense of right and wrong, where discipline and rules are self-imposed are the biggest challenges facing young mother and parents.

According to Dr Lata Shenava, “The media having taken over as a role -model for children and young people, replacing the family is one of the biggest challenges facing young mothers and parents.”

Dr Armida Fernandez opined, “In this era, technology has invaded the space of outdoor activities and relationships, restricting physical and emotional growth in children.”
