Abstract
Abstract:No parent is born a parent rather parenting is a process wherein a parent grows from an individual state to being a parent. Parents shape a child’s whole childhood and in the process of shaping ‘play’ occupies a major role and it fosters the parent child relationship. Play in childhood doesn’t just reflect the current level of development in the child but rather it seems to take forward its effect throughout the life of the child and helps parents understand the child’s perspective easily. For a child, play is not just a play but it is a way of self expression. Playing with the child gives child a sense of being important to the parent this later facilitates a sense of optimism in the child. Being a parent is never an easy role to go about, it calls for a lot of effort often parents are torn between the parenting roles and professional role. Especially in the Indian scenario parents playing with their kids are often valued less and it is not considered as an important element in child development. The advent of technology too has a very important role to contribute to the devaluing of play in today’s world. Keywords:Parenting, play, child development, positive parent, attachment, emotional expression, quality time.
