Musannah - July 29: A workshop for women on the ‘Art of Containment’ was conducted at Al Musannah College of Technology recently.


It focused on ways and preferred styles of embracing children with love and dealing with them properly to create a strong, healthy and confident personality.


The workshop was held as part of the fourth social week for year 2017 by the Directorate-General for Social Development in the Governorates of Al Batinah South and North representative in the Department of Social Development in the Wilayat of Musannah.


Held under the auspices of Rahma al Nofali, Member of the Municipal Council representing Musannah, the workshop was conducted by programmes and community awareness specialist Naqaa al Lawati.


A total of 60 women from different government entities and voluntary teams from Musannah attended the workshop.


The workshop highlighted the common parenting styles of bringing up children: authoritarian, strict as well as flexible. The impact of these parenting styles were also discussed.


Participants were told to spend more time with their children. “The art of containment in dealing with children is 70 per cent based on building a positive relationship, 10 per cent on building positive confidence and 10 per cent on boosting positive behaviour besides 10 per cent on modifying positive behaviour,” she said. The workshop concluded with the handing of certificates to the participants.
