7. Example - Rahul
Rahul is a precocious and hyperactive third-grader, the youngest of 3 children in a
laidback and loving family. Lately, he has gotten into trouble at school for “talking
back.”On one such day, he brings a note home from the teacher describing his
infraction by stating “Rahul was disrespectful today.” His mother sits him down
and asks him what happened. In an exasperated tone, he tells her that, when he
was in the recess line, Mrs. Singh told him to stop trying to balance a pencil on his
finger, point-side-up, because he might “stab himself in the face.”He frowned and
snapped back at Mrs. Singh by telling her that he would have to bend “all the way
over the pencil like this” (demonstrating) to stab himself in the face and that he
isn’t “that stupid.” In response, Mrs. Singh confiscated his pencil, wrote his name
on the board, and sent him home with a note.

8. “How could you do this? Now Mrs Singh will think I’ve not
taught you good manners! This is embarrassing. Go to your
room. I don’t want to see you right now. I’m very hurt.”
www.justforhearts.org

9. “This is unacceptable. You need to learn how to show proper respect!
You don’t deserve to go to the football game tomorrow. Maybe next time
you’ll remember to respect Mrs. Singh.”
www.justforhearts.org

10. On handing the note to the mother a barely perceptible shadow crossed her face
which was quickly replaced by a brightening.
“Go along.” Rahul ran to catch the ball. When he caught it, his mom jumped up
and down, making cheering noises from the crowd. “You’re such a tough guy.”
She said while mussing his hair. “Rough day though, huh? Would some Ice-
cream make it better?”
www.justforhearts.org

11. Rahul hands note to the father. He watches nervously as his father slowly shakes
his head from side to side. “This in your mother’s fault,” he says, “I’m not
surprised that you’re starting to get into trouble after all that she has put us
through. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely talk to her about this.”
www.justforhearts.org

12. Rahul walked in the door of his beautiful, spacious home and handed the note to
his father, who had stopped by the change his clothes for a meeting. His mother
was away traveling for business. His father peered over his reading glasses at
Rahul with a disappointed look and said:
“This is not good Rahul. I am sorry I have to rush to my meeting right now, but
I am going to give this note to your nanny and she will talk with you about it
tonight”.
www.justforhearts.org

13. “ Rahul, how could you behave this way at school? Now Mrs. Singh may change
her mind about writing the recommendation letter to help with your application to
the Amazing Child School! We need to call Mrs. Singh right now and smooth this
over”.
www.justforhearts.org

14. Mother: “Mrs. Singh didn’t understand that you were embarrassed by her thinking you
could be stupid enough to stick your eye out with a pencil. But when teachers ask you to
stop doing something, the reason doesn’t matter. It’s your job to stop.”
Rahul: “I know! I was trying to say that to her and she wouldn’t listen!”
Mother: “Yes, I know how frustrated you get when people don’t let you talk. Mrs. Singh
doesn’t know that you’re dealing with your brother and sister not listening to you much
lately.”
Rahul relaxes a little in response to his mother’s understanding: “Yeah, she got me so
frustrated and then she took my pencil.”
Mother: “It must’ve been hard for you. But, you see, Mrs. Singh’s class is very big and
she doesn’t have time to talk things over like we are right now. It’s so important that
when any grownup at school asks you to do something, you do it right away. Will you try
to do as asked without saying anything back, Rahul?”
Rahul: “Yeah, Mom.”
Mother: “Good! If you do what Mrs. Singh asks, you’ll never get in trouble. Then you can
come home and complain to us if you think it’s unfair. That’s fine. But as a student,
respect means cooperating with your teacher’s requests.”

17. HOUSE UNDER LOCKDOWN
How can parents keep their children entertained and engaged while they juggle
team video conference calls and presentations?
What happens to snack-time, play-time and me-time?
Here are some practical parenting tips that we can follow
www.justforhearts.org

18. ● Talk to your children
Explain clearly to children why we are all forced to be indoors and the importance
of adhering to this restriction. Once they understand the reasoning, you will be
surprised at how much more willing they will be to comply.
● Set up a routine
A routine for not only kids but parents too. Children need to understand this is not
a vacation and that they must have fixed mealtimes and bedtimes.
Chores like making their bed and cleaning up their room do not require your
supervision and will keep them occupied and the children will turn a helping hand
in this crisis time. Eg: Taking turns to wash utensils, clean the house, assign tasks
since the house help is not coming
www.justforhearts.org

19. ● Track of screen time
Don’t fight screen time, instead use it strategically. Find ways
to make the screen time more productive, attending classes
on zoom/skype, reading e-books, opting virtual museum or
zoo tours and YouTube videos for revision of concepts.
There are many available online certificate courses that will
add a boost to the CV and learning
www.justforhearts.org

20. ● Home Schooling
If the goal is to raise well-balanced, well-adjusted children with a broad base of
knowledge, we need to move away from the idea that education is only what is
taught in schools. Bring learning to home.
Take time to nurture hobbies. Help the children realize the importance of house
chores
Use this time to teach basic values – empathy, respect with the help of many
stories
www.justforhearts.org

21. ● Game Time
With the amount of time at hand, engage in playing games with the children. One-
on-One time makes children feel loved and secure, and shows them that they are
important.
Games could range from intellectual to fun games like ludo, carom and cards. This
has proven extremely effective in bonding with family members.
