Sheahnee Iman Lee said: “Times and our environment have changed ─ now, our kids are not only juggling activities in and out of school, they are also managing the pressures of social expectations. We need to remember that our children are made up of so much more. I appreciate that Tiger is initiating #StrengthFromWithin to remind parents in Malaysia that inner strength is a key aspect of our child’s overall development.” “Children need us to help them work out their feelings, without judgment. We need to be there to help them find that strength from within,” ─ Sharifah Aleya Sharifah Aleya shared: “It is crucial for children to know that they have total control over their minds and emotions. They need to know it is normal to feel angry, sad, ecstatic, confused, and so forth as they are not robots. We as parents also need to ensure our kids know and feel that they have us, their mommies and daddies.” Calling All Parents to Join ‘Bicara Bersama Mama’ Instagram LIVE Tune in to Sheahnee Iman Lee (@sheahnee), Sharifah Aleya (@sharifahaleya) on Universal Children’s Day, November 20th at 9.30pm to be part of the discussion.
