I am trying to get together parents to become learners and become<br>
models for children to awaken their learning ability.<br>
<br>
The biggest fallout of the modern educational paradigm is the loss of<br>
knowledge creation in society so much so that even the knowledge to<br>
look after children is gone. Parents are depending on books and<br>
authorities to look after children and this is what children are<br>
experiencing the day in and day out.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, children learn what they experience and imbibe this<br>
nature of dependency from their parents. Also their anxiety, stress,<br>
etc<br>
<br>
I have worked out an interesting way to turn this around.<br>
<br>
During the Covid lockdown, we worked with a group of parents and asked<br>
them to let children do what they feel like and just document what<br>
children do naturally and spontaneously.  We specifically requested<br>
the parents not to interfere, guide, etc. We also requested parents to<br>
make a few changes in the house.  This made the parents begin to<br>
observe their children keenly and then the magic began to happen.<br>
<br>
Parents were able to bring back joy, creativity, and exploration into<br>
the lives of children and the parents themselves became freer and less<br>
anxious. They were able to see the logic behind the so-called<br>
meaningless activity that children were doing.<br>
<br>
There is a need to rediscover our innate abilities.<br>
<br>
We are trying to get more parents into this activity and request your<br>
help in sharing this brochure.<br>
