9 Differences

Differences in children makes our work so interesting.

Thank God we have children who are different. Lets acknowledge these differences and ensure that we tune our efforts accordingly.

Howard Gardner said, “We are all so different largely because we have all different combinations of intelligence. If we recognized this, I think we will have at least a better chance of dealing appropriately with the many problems that we face in the world.”

Often a parent would say, “I brought up both the kids the same way, and see how the younger one shaped up compared with the older”. The basic fallacy in this thinking is the assumption that both children required same parenting. The fact that they are two children – means that they would require different approaches.

Just as we cook according to the different tastes; just like that we need to vary our parenting. The essence of effectiveness is flexibility and adaptability.
