Read the full guide for a gentle path back to presence:

7/ We aren't bad parents; we're just living in a world designed to steal our attention. But as Guru Ji says, "no harm is done that cannot be mended."

6/ 3 Quick Tips: ✅ Eye contact first: Put the phone down *before* responding. ✅ Phone-free zones: Protect the dinner table and car rides. ✅ Be the first face: Greet them in the morning before checking notifications.

5/ "ਛਿਨੁ ਛਿਨੁ ਅਉਧ ਬਿਹਾਤੁ ਹੈ" — Every moment, life is passing like water from a cracked pitcher. That window where your child *wants* to show you their world is closing a little more each day. Don't let a screen steal it.

4/ Gurbani calls us to be "ਇਕ ਮਨਿ ਇਕ ਚਿਤਿ" (with one mind, one consciousness). If we are called to this presence in prayer, how can we offer anything less to the children Waheguru placed in our care?

3/ In the 1970s, the "Still Face Experiment" showed that when a parent stops responding and goes "blank," infants become visibly distressed within seconds. In 2026, the smartphone is the new "still face." 📱💔

2/ Ever feel like your phone is a "third person" in your relationship with your child? Researchers call it "technoference"—the tiny interruptions that add up to a big gap in connection. Here is why looking up matters more than you think. 🧵

Question 5/30 — Sikh parents, if your child asked you "Why do we give free food (Langar) to everyone, even people who aren't Sikh?" Would you know what to say? Our kids are curious but afraid to ask. Let's start the conversation. #SikhParenting #SikhKids #Sikhi101 #AskWithoutFear

"Tell me more" is the most powerful sentence in a parent's vocabulary. More powerful than "stop that" or "because I said so." #ParentingTips #MindfulParenting #SikhWisdom

This late discovery has been a profound reminder for me. We must actively work on making sure our Sakhis are passed down to the next generation. Our youth need to know the history they come from. 🙏🏽 (4/4)

When you realize that Jathas traveled from as far away as Canada to Jaito to stand against oppression, it puts that devotion into incredible perspective. The global solidarity of the Panth back then is truly awe-inspiring. (3/4)

Growing up, the true weight of this heritage, the sheer sacrifices, and the unwavering Chardi Kala spirit of the Sikh Khalsa Panth weren't passed down to me. I only fully learned about the magnitude of these events as an adult. (2/4)

Feeling deeply blessed to have been born in the historic town of Jaito. Today marks the anniversary of the Jaito Morcha (Feb 21, 1924), a profound chapter in our history that deserves to be remembered. (1/4)

Question 4/30 — Sikh parents, if your child asked you "Why do we all sit on the floor together at the Gurdwara Sahib?" Would you know what to say? These questions deserve honest answers. Let's have the conversation. #SikhParenting #SikhKids #Sikhi101 #AskWithoutFear

Next time anger rises, name it silently: "That's Krodh. I see you." Naming the vice takes away half its power. Try it tonight. #ParentingTips #JapjiSahib #MindfulParenting
