She is very open about challenges of parenting and how she has taken them on over the years.
Temper tantrums are pretty common among toddlers and lately we are seeing a generation which has less control over their emotions. Parenting is what eventually gets blamed for children not realizing how to behave in a stable manner. Salma Hassan shared a story of her own daughter and advised parents what to do when a child is throwing a tantrum.
Salma Hassan shared that her only child, Fatima once went to a mall with her and she wanted to buy a bag while she was only 3 years old. Salma did not want to buy the bag as it was expensive and her daughter was only 3. The child did not have it and had a full blown temper tantrum in the mall. She sat on the floor and started crying for a good 15 minutes. Salma still did not give up on her and walked away. The child then gave up and went with her mother but Salma did not give up on the tantrum.
