Most of us worry about the future of our kids. What will they do? How will they do it? Typical concerns every parent has. And that's normal. After all, we want them to excel in everything they do and hope that they don't struggle to achieve their dreams.
But in doing so are we setting them up for something more? With parents shuttling between helicopter parenting and snowplough parenting, our kids have it comparatively easier than we did. The drive to achieve may just be missing from this new generation but having said that we shouldn't underestimate their capabilities. We should allow them to do what they want and learn from their mistakes.
Mansi Zaveri of Kidsstoppress caught up with Varun Duggirala, Co-Founder of The Glitch about life after being a father and we were stumped with everything he had to say
- He speaks to us about night duties with the dogs and his child
- How he learnt patience from running a company with young employees
- How he is a better dad at 30s and wouldn't be the best in his 20s
- How he was a backbencher, trouble maker and then pulled up his socks – would give the same freedom to his child.
If you want to know what makes him tick and how he managed his start-up and spends time with his daughter, you need to watch the video.
