In My Own Words

My parenting style is a very disciplinary one, that keeps kids on a wide but well defined path of schooling, education, activities, play/fun, technology, learning, sharing/caring, volunteering etc. I am helping my kids design success by peeking into their interests, letting them make decisions, but yet guiding them through the choices (of good, bad and ugly). My pet peeves are and will always be the lack of involvement that parents have with their kids as they grow up, and become an individual. The best memories for me are my time with the kids from age 1 through 10.

Parents I'd Like to Meet

I'd like to meet other parents who are deeply involved in ensuring success of their children as they age from teenage years to adulthood. I am referring to helping them excel in school, sports, extra-curricular activities, ACT-SAT, College Selection/Admissions, Creating a Life Plan, Goal-setting, Affirmations etc. I am a high performance individual and I want to give them the true advantage of what I have learnt in life to make myself successful.
