@Bobby1

Also, if you let me know about specific situations then I can guide you. It is very challenging to be a desi parent in the current environment. I am involved with high-performance athletes and have read about and observed making of champions, one of my kids best friend is no 3 in the country in taekwondo, I know several others who are aspiring to go to Olympics. Our club had actually hired a sports psychologist.
What are your parenting goals? I met this Chinese girl who had a doctorate in engineering and she told me that her husband would read physics to the baby when he was still in the tummy.

Pay attention to physical literacy, in the western world they say physical literacy is as important as education.

Bobby1, I am sorry but you aren’t seeing my point. I asked you to reread my post to see that i also said no to my child since his father had already (in your first reply you said i didnt). I understand no means no…but it shouldn’t be a "no"every time.

My husband thinks he is all those things (misbehaved, disobedient etc.) but that’s the problem. What 5 year old isn’t a picky eater? what 5 year old ignores rules? What 5 year old doesn’t want to hold his baby brother? I am trying to explain this to my husband that this is normal behavior and we need to deal with it instead of just saying NO. BY giving him alternative choices like Mahool suggested.

you have too many assumptions and judgmental comments in your posts. Whatever your experiences and qualifications are, they sure aren’t on how to deal with a worried mother. Maybe your criticism works with professional athletes (and their parents) but not working with a worried mother like me.
