During the event, Sisodia also talked about how parents treat their children as if they are their bosses, expecting them to do what they want in the name of parenting. He added that there are two common kinds of parenting — zero parenting or over-parenting, and both of them are harmful to the overall development of the child. Hence, this programme will bridge the gap between School Management Committees (SMCs) and parents.
Sisodia launched this programme at Thyagaraj Stadium. The event was attended by Kalkaji MLA Atishi, DCPCR Chairperson Anurag Kundu, Principal Education Secretary H Rajesh Prasad, Director of EducationHimanshu Gupta, Principal Education Advisor Shailendra Sharma and other senior officials.
