“Silent punishment is worse than hitting your child.”
It may sound extreme — but it’s something Dr. Ravi Malik, one of India’s top pediatricians, has seen time and again.
With over 30 years of experience, and leadership roles at the Indian Academy of Pediatrics and Indian Medical Association, Dr. Malik brings both medical insight and real-world wisdom to the parenting table.
From screen time to tantrums, walkers to food struggles, and ADHD to overprotective parenting — this conversation is packed with clarity, science, and compassion.
In this episode, we spoke about:
🍼 Why screen time should be zero for children under 2
🤫 How silent treatment can damage a child more than yelling
🚼 The hidden risks of walkers, salt, and early development
🧠 Early signs of ADHD & Autism — and when not to panic
📚 Whether homeschooling is a privilege or a necessity
🧸 Tantrums, boundaries, and how to actually discipline with love
🛡️ What every parent must know about good touch & bad touch
This conversation might just change the way you parent.
Whether you’re a new parent, a soon-to-be one, or simply trying to do better — Dr. Malik brings a mix of science, sensitivity, and real talk you won’t want to miss.
