Know Your Child

Know Your Child (KYC) is a 2-hour workshop for parents and teachers associated with children between ages of 0 to 12 years.

The viewpoint of a child is very different from that of an adult. A child's view is full of wonder, amazement and excitement, innocent mischief and simplicity. Then, as time goes by, the child slowly starts imbibing more and more of its environment, and begins to express ideas that it has acquired from observation. In the first few years, teachers and parents constitute the major portion of a child’s environment. Yet there is a fundamental difference between the perspectives of a child and that of an adult.

Because of this “cultural” misunderstanding, children often feel they are not understood, and parents feel frustrated as their child acts out. If this “cultural divide” deepens, the quality of the relationship between parents and children can deteriorate, creating a lack of closeness among family members.

Know Your Child is one of many educational course offered through the Art of Living Foundation. It is designed to help parents understand children better and thus improve the quality of family life dramatically. KYC does a root cause analysis of children’s behavioural patterns and equips the parents/teachers with the knowledge to help children blossom to their full potential. These inputs are also vital to preserving the beauty of the relationship as the child grows up to teenage and adulthood.

"Parenting is a huge job for me I often see sibling rivalry or there are times when my kids are stubborn and refuse to listen to me However, having attended this workshop, I learned valuable insights into my child's mind and gained practical solution for every single behavioural issue that I face. Now, I see the world through my child's eyes and find parenting fulfilling. I am less stressful and more joyful.” - Julia Tang, parent who is Med from Harvard University.
