There are days when your child comes home and says, “Mumma, she is better than me.” Maybe a friend got higher marks, ran faster, made more friends, or simply seemed more confident. My first instinct used to be to make my child feel better immediately. But I realised that saying “Don’t compare yourself” doesn’t really …
There was a time when I worried about almost every bite my toddler ate. My son was around 22 months old, and apart from breastfeeding, he was hardly eating anything. I tried parathas, curd, milk, flavoured milk, fruits, and almost everything I could think of. What finally helped was not one magic trick, but understanding …

पिछले हफ्ते मेरे 7 साल के बेटे ने तीसरी बार नया टॉय मांगा — और तीसरी बार मैंने “हां” बोल दिया। रात को जब उसकी अलमारी साफ कर रही थी, देखा कि आधे टॉयज़ तो उसने खोल कर देखे भी नहीं थे। उसी रात खुद से सवाल पूछा — क्या मेरा बेटा जानता है कि …
