Twinkle Khanna posted a message about parenting on her Instagram page. She shared a picture of herself kissing her daughter Nitara and wrote in the caption that parents are not responsible for giving their children a “perfect childhood.” Instead, she advocated for parents to support their children’s creativity and not draw attention to their flaws.

Twinkle wrote, “Our job is not to give our children perfect childhoods. It is to fill their heads with ideas, to honour their strengths and make them aware, but never underline their weaknesses. It involves loving them madly and throwing a few vegetables down their throats. We need to permanently dedicate a large number of our neurons towards their mosquito bites, bad grades, and hurt feelings.”

“And we must do all of this, day after day, without losing sight of everything we are and can be, along with being their mothers.”
