Hi, and welcome to the secret society called “Parenting”. Here you will find adults usually mid-30s, some maybe mid-20s (those that are cases of “the surprise”).

Ep. #11 Why do your child discipline techniques fail to work.
Child discipline is a topic really close to my heart. Once you become a parent you realise how important it is. If you think its another way of controlling your children then your wrong. 
Imagine you’re in a showroom and a child is pulling his mums dress, coaxing her to buy him a toy. Another one at the restaurant is creating a ruckus, throwing food around and spilling drinks.

3 DIABETIC FRIENDLY FOOD INGREDIENTS TO INCLUDE IN YOUR DIET. Being a diabetic doesn't mean you miss out on the cultures and traditions that you have been following for years. There are two key components to fasting being a diabetic ✔️Adhering to a diet ✔️Regular monitoring of blood sugars. These food items that are safe for diabetics during Navratri. 📌Kuttu (buckwheat) It is known for containing slow-release carbohydrates which are very important in helping you maintain a steady blood sugar level. It also contains micronutrients like magnesium and manganese necessary for good digestion of carbohydrates. Kuttu ticks all the boxes for an ideal food item for diabetics in fasts. 📌Singhara (water chestnut) Singhaara is a fruit that gains its due popularity only in the form of flour. It is an all-time favourite during the fasting season. Being a healthy and yummy alternative to traditional wheat flour, it is a perfect choice for diabetics. There are dozens of yummy preparations that can be made using singhara flour like cheela, parathas rather than making pooris which taste yum but are unhealthy. 📌Ragi (finger millet) This tiny grain is packed with nutrients and has added nutrients. It has a better nutritive profile as compared to rice, maize or wheat. The reason being it is too tiny to be polished, hence it retains all the nutrients. Ragi flour is a good substitute for traditional grains as it is a rich source of calcium, amino acids and polyphenols. It is high in dietary fibres that help keep cravings at bay by giving you a feeling of fullness. Fun fact: both ragi and singhara are gluten-free safe alternatives. This whole grain can be used to make dishes like ragi roti, ragi oats ladoo, dosa or baked ragi chakli. Check the whole article on my website. This article is written as a part of the blog train by @mummasauruss What special Navratri preparations did you make this year? (at India) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGrtBmHliHc/?igshid=ip7v1sd3eipf
