About MyParenting Congress
Parenting has never been easy, but in today’s fast-paced, ever-changing world, it feels more challenging than ever. From the rise of technology and social media to shifting family dynamics and societal expectations, the way we raise our children has evolved dramatically over the years. What worked for previous generations may no longer be enough to prepare our kids for the complexities of the modern world.
​
That’s why we’re excited to invite you to the Malaysia Parenting Congress, a two-day event designed exclusively for parents like you. Held on 8 and 9 November, this congress is your opportunity to learn, grow, and connect with experts and fellow parents who understand the joys and struggles of raising children in the 21st century.
Why Parenting Has Changed
Parenting today is vastly different from what it was even a decade ago. Technology has transformed how our children learn, play, and interact, while societal shifts have redefined traditional family roles. Fathers are more involved in caregiving, mothers are balancing careers and parenting, and families are navigating the challenges of raising children in a digital age. At the same time, we’re seeing the rise of new parenting styles, from "helicopter" to "free-range," each with its own benefits and pitfalls.
​
The pressure to "get it right" can feel overwhelming. How do we set boundaries while fostering independence? How do we protect our children online without stifling their curiosity? How do we raise resilient, empathetic, and confident kids in a world that’s constantly changing? These are the questions we’ll tackle together at the Malaysia Parenting Congress.
​
