The Art of Understanding Children | Asuda Soran | TEDxNishtiman

Many parents and educators ask the same question: What should we do when children don't listen? In this thought-provoking talk, Asuda Soran challenges the traditional belief that a child's role is simply to obey. She explores why constant control, shouting, and expecting immediate compliance may not lead to healthy development. Instead, she invites us to rethink parenting and education through the lens of understanding, growth, and connection. A powerful conversation about raising confident, responsible, and emotionally healthy children in a rapidly changing world. Asuda Soran is a Kurdish educational speaker and trainer based in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, widely recognized for her advocacy in child development, positive parenting, and youth empowerment.
