Journey of Progress # 3
Greetings! I'm Dr. Salman Yunus, a pediatrician with over three decades of experience. Currently, I hold the position of Head of the Pediatrics Department at Maroof Hospital in Islamabad, having previously served in the same capacity at Islamabad Medical and Dental College and Southern Ocean County Hospital in Manahawkin, New Jersey.
My journey into understanding parenting began when my wife and I were raising our two wonderful children in the United States while I was in the process of becoming a pediatrician. As the years passed, leading to my practice in New Jersey and later in Islamabad, a profound realization gradually became clearer to me.
I came to understand that a child's physical health is intricately interconnected with their emotional, social, mental, and moral well-being. A child's life is an integration of all these dimensions, all of which are, in turn, significantly influenced by the environment in which a child lives and grows.
Based on the above principles, I've developed a Holistic Parenting Paradigm, a transformative approach empowering parents to bring order and predictability into their child's life. This paradigm is a departure from a solely child-centered focus, redirecting our attention to optimizing the entire environment.
This paradigm is designed to nurture all dimensions of a child's inner world: Their physical, emotional, intellectual, and moral health. It also encompasses various elements of the child's Outer World, including parents, and their mutual dynamics. family dynamics, school involvement, and guarding against societal and media influences. This paradigm is principle-driven rather than personality or convention-driven, and it provides clarity of roles for parents children, and all caregivers.
With this shift, replacing randomness with order, parents create predictability in the short and long run. By doing so they shape not only their child's future but also their own.
Throughout my career, I've shared these transformative parenting principles with thousands of families in my practice, and many more through counseling, talks, and training sessions. I've witnessed little children blossom into well-rounded, successful young adults. I've even had the privilege of applying these principles within my own family, where my wife and I nurtured our son and daughter, both of whom have gone on to become accomplished doctors in Boston and London.
My mission now extends beyond my practice to reach parents worldwide through digital media. I invite you to explore and embrace these fundamental principles, enabling you to create a nurturing environment that will shape your child's future and, indeed, your own.
To unlock a child's full potential, Doctors and parents must focus not only on the child but also on creating the right environment. This requires that the traditional Parenting paradigm which focuses narrowly on the child or parent-child interaction, be replaced with a wider focusing and holistic parenting paradigm which extends the focus to their whole environment and covers all dimensions of their life.
