28 EXPERTS FROM THE FIELDS OF NEUROLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY, MENTAL HEALTH COACHING, TEACHING, EDUCATIONAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP TO HELP PARENTS RAISE THEMSELVES TO RAISE CHILDREN THAT THEIR WORLD NEEDS.

[blockquote author=”Sangita Krishnamurthy”] I am thrilled to see a conference hosted by an Indian parenting website that has brought together renowned names in the various fields of parenting. Not only are the presenters known, the topics have been curated to give parents practical ways to better themselves. Areas like resilience, social emotional well being, skilling for adolescents, etc. are relevant and needed areas of discussion. I got to see a preview of a session on mindfulness by Christopher Willard and was impressed with the ease with which Devishobha guides the discussion to the needs of the Indian parent community. I am looking forward to listening to more of the speakers during the conference.[/blockquote][blockquote author=”Lisa Lynam Piar”]I am an avid researcher regarding parenting techniques, especially for complex or spirited children, and have already found this summit so helpful. I especially loved Bonnie Harris’s piece. Thank you for bringing all of these great resources to the world in a way we can easily access.[/blockquote]
