How Moms Help Kids Understand Operation Sindoor

 "A mother is a child’s first teacher she can turn the hardest lessons into stories of love and understanding." — Inspired by Maria Montessori

Yes, a mother often a child's first teacher, guide, and source of comfort can teach her children to face difficult situations with positivity and courage.
