Musarrat Bibi – Replacing Fear with a Culture of Love

Musarrat shared that in her joint family, shouting, showing anger and hitting children were considered the only way to raise them. When she learned the methods of Positive Parenting in the SMG program, she stopped raising her hand or getting angry at her children and instead talked to them with love, logic and wisdom. Her sisters-in-law and relatives were surprised to see how calm, well-mannered and obedient her children had become, and they began asking her for advice. Inspired by her approach, they started adopting gentler behavior with their own children, and her sister admitted that seeing Musarrat’s children made them stop hitting their own. The program protected the childhood of all the children in their extended family by replacing fear with a culture of love.
