Parenthood is quite a joyous phase but it brings along a bunch of responsibilities with itself. As much as a parent keeps a tab on the nutritional needs of their child, looking at their emotional and mental well-being is also important. While growing up, kids are pushed to compete with their friends and schoolmates and the constant comparison keeps building up. While pressurising our children to be on the top, to always have a winning stride, we often forget how important it is to let loose sometimes. While the number of mental health cases are increasing, actress, Juhi Parmar urges parents to help their kids face failures.

Juhi Parmar had become a household name with her stint in the popular serial, Kumkum. The actress had gotten married to actor, Sachin Shroff on February 15, 2009, and the couple has a daughter, Samairra together. After eight years of marital bliss, Juhi and Sachin had parted ways and the custody of their daughter had been given to Juhi. Juhi is a hands-on mother and her inspirational posts have inspired many.
Amidst the pandemic of COVID-19, we have seen many actors committing suicide. Addressing the same in an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Juhi Parmar urged all the parents to help their kids understand the importance of failures. She requested them to make their kids understand that winning and losing are part of a game. She shared, “I have always said that there is always a way out but for mental health, I think it’s important for parents to teach their kids the importance and value of being able to take failures. Unfortunately, we teach our kids only about winning. But It is important for them to know that ‘try to win but it’s ok if you lose’. It’s not that you teach them to fail when they grow up, no, you teach them to try to win but the option of failing should always be opened to feel ‘it’s ok’. I do this with my daughter all the time.” (Also Read: Ankita Lokhande Has A Message For Sushant Singh Rajput's Nephew, Nirvanh On His First Day Of School)
On July 26, 2020, Juhi had taken to her IG handle and had shared a video of the beautiful surprise she had received from her 7-year-old daughter, Samairra on Parent’s Day. Along with the video, Juhi had written that there is no role greater than being a mother. Her note could be read as “Sunday started with this lovely surprise as my little Sammy surprised me for #ParentsDay. Life truly can be lived in these small moments, in these memories which you are gifting me Samairra. No role more special than that of being your mother!”
Juhi is acing the role of a single mother and is an inspiration to many. In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Juhi had given credit to her seven-year-old daughter, Samairra for inspiring and motivating her. She had stated that Samairra is her strength and had revealed, “She is the reason I am able to look forward to life every day. I do everything for her. My daughter has been my biggest strength. I want to set an example for her so that when she grows up, she can confidently say that she is proud of her mother. Sachin and I are good friends and have been cordial. We have moved on believe not to carry any grudges or have any animosity. We are all in a happy space where our daughter doesn’t feel any vacuum. Samairra is absolutely free to meet and talk to her father whenever she wants to and vice-versa also. I believe a divorce happens between a couple and not parents.” (Also Read: Divyanka Tripathi And Vivek Dahiya Dance Like No One's Watching Before Eco-Friendly Ganpati Visarjan)
