Question

Am looking for hobby classes for my 3 year old niece, prefrably in south of bangalore.Kindly suggest some hobby classes addresses. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I taught three year olds for ten years. A hobby class by itself is not going to help you. A child of that age does not have the attention span to sit that long and work on one thing. Instead you would be better off placing her in a day care for two hours per day where she could interact with other children and play with different types of things. A good day care, or Mother's Day Out program would offer activities in small blocks of time that would be age appropriate.

You could also purchase a few things like chalk boards and chalk, coloring books and markers, play doh or clay, construction paper and scissors and play with her yourself for some time each day. Nothing is better than one on one with a beloved adult.

Answer 2

Firstly, I would like to say that I am sorry that you and your family are going through this awful situation but your son is what would commonly be known as a paedophile - and I am not saying that to be awful - I have read/researched this subject for years as a foster carer of sexually abused children and it is probably the start of what can become a cycle. Paedophiles usually start at around the age of 11 and usually prey on their brothers/sisters/cousins etc You need to all sit down as a family and discuss this very serious situation - it is brilliant that it has been brought out in the open but the issues still have to be dealt with. Your son has a problem and he needs appropriate counselling by professionals. He will probably continue to do this (in secret if he has to) as he has already done it - and as Dr Phil says "past behaviour is a predictor of future behaviour". As is the case with most sex offenders, when they are caught it is usually not the first time they have done it. If this was my son, I would bring the police into it as he is a sex offender and needs to recognise this - along with appropriate legal avenues he will get all the help that he needs and also you will be protecting future (god forbid) victims if he is already in the sights of authorities. This is such a sad situation, but if not addressed he will most probably re-offend and continue to do so throughout his adult years. Sorry, I had to be blunt. PS At 13 your son knew what he was doing was wrong (you didn't state if he had any psychological problems so I assume he is normal). Good luck. I hope you can get this issue resolved and your son the help he most obviously needs.
