Parenting-is a challenge these days

We all know that parenting these days is not a cake walk .Its required great efforts and challenge to raise a child equipped good moral value ,socially accepted behavior without any kind of addictions-Drugs, alcohol, mobile, internet etc . A study show that 90% of a child’s permanent foundation for brain development occurs in the early years according to Rauch Foundation. An overuse of gadgets can only stunt this growth and cause a negative impact on the child’s overall development.
If your child is spending more time swiping and scrolling, instead of interaction with the real world, you need to act before it’s too late.
