Parenting 2.0

How can we instill self-discipline without the need to shout or nag? How can we teach our children sense of responsibility without turning them into rebellious teenagers? How can we empower our children and get them to respect others at the same time? How can we train our children to be resourceful without turning them into manipulative, cunning little creatures? How can we cultivate resilience in our children without creating resentment and low self-worthiness? Ko Teik Yen aka TYKo is a parent and practicing Clinical Hypnotherapist who conducts workshops and seminars on parenting skills and related emotional, psychological and behavioural issues. He speaks regularly at local and international events. He works with children, adolescents, parents and adults in his daily clinical practice too. Modern parents have become the new SANDWICH generation, squeezed between their work, children, and aging parents while grappling to shield their children from the invasion of digital technology right in their home. In Parenting 2.0, TYKo looks into the changing world of parenting and questions if we are heading in the right direction? By sifting through the latest evidence in brain science and child development and with his personal experience as a therapist and as a parent; TYKo has discovered how parents can be guided with mindfulness and compassion as well as insights from the research in human development and brain science to the way forward.
