ISN'T PARENTING SOMETHING WE DO BY INSTINCT?
Posted by Kesang Menezes who is a facilitator at Parenting Matters and mother of two girls aged 11 and 15.
We conduct parenting workshops and very often we are asked this question- Why would anyone come to a workshop on parenting? Isn’t parenting something one does by instinct? This is a very valid question but do we even know what in instinct in a world where we are so conditioned? Are we able to get in touch with what is called ‘animal instinct’ which drives every creature to protect, feed and nurture its young?
