INSTILLING SOCIAL EQUALITY IN CHILDREN BY NANDHINI CHANDRASEKHARAN



 


“The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.” - Mark Twain.

 ADDRESSING SOCIAL INEQUALITY emphasizes the readers to teach their wards about the present scenario of our social conditions with great attention. Because parents are the first teachers who can initiate their wards to know the basic ideas about the day-to-day life.

Krishna says to Arjuna, do you kill Drona, Bhishma, Jayadratha, Karna and other brave warriors; who stand already killed by me. Gita: 34-XI.

Drona was the great teacher and Bhishma was the grand-sire of Pandavas and Kauravas, they are the ones who failed to teach the modesty and moral codes in proper way.

 Though the phrase from the book –“ rethink about introducing stereotyping books to your children” insists to avoid the same, but parents should choose the worthy anecdotes from fairy tales, Panchatantra stories, or mythologies by which the children can be away from the bad companies, bad habits.

 According to Dr. Vivek Mansingh, a mentor par excellence, the author of “Achieving Meaningful Success” says that the books are to be treated as one among the four gods. Even the Bhagavad Gita instructed the people to depend or read the books in the form of scripture which guide about the do’s and don’ts. 

The line “irrespective of what caste we belong to, we are responsible for dividing or not dividing people based on castes” warns the readers to educate their wards not to be complicate themselves by trapping into this and must understand the following idea that “the wise men who have Equanimeous sight, see the same Self in a learned and humble higher caste, a cow, an elephant, a dog and also in the one who eats the flesh of a dog who is treated as a low-caste.” Gita18/V

One should make his own ward to learn that no one should hurt anyone or break any laws. Neither one should underestimate others nor make others to feel inferior.  For e.g. rainbow is the combination of seven colours. If anyone of those taken out it won’t be nice to watch.  In this way we have to promote our children to understand the same and train to follow practically.

 Take the responsibility to correct improper addressing by children,

 Talk to them about the strength in standing for each other

What can be parents’ roles in shaping and dealing with children’s identities?

 Are the few of the best topics discussed in the e –book by the author Nandhini chandrasekharan. She is an erstwhile Biotechnologist, while staying at home and raising her children, stumbled upon several work-from-home roles one after the other, the last being an EdTech content specialist role. She is now curious about what lies ahead in life.

 This e-book provides the useful approach to parents to advise their children to lead a life with great courage, positive thoughts, maintain the relationships and in turn it helps to develop the feeling of rejoice.

Nothing exists in the world more purifying than knowledge- Gita 38/IV.  According to this wise-quote, by reading this E-Book, one can understand and follow to lead his/her parenting journey properly.

Moreover, the contents are well arranged and the title is being exemplified with suitable image in the wrapper.
