It is really tough to understand why more and more young kids are pressurised by parents to do something they can't. In a shocking news story from Indore, a stepfather used his belt to ruthlessly thrash his 3-year-old son all because he couldn't count numbers 1-10.

Stepfather used his belt to thrash 3-year-old son

News reports say that the stepfather used his belt and thrashed his son for one and a half hours. His only fault? He couldn't count numbers 1-10. The stepfather has been identified as Dharmendra Nayak.

The incident occurred at around 3 pm on Monday when Dharmendra came home from work. On seeing his son, he asked him to show him if he could count numbers 1-10. When he couln't do as he pleased the stepfather used his belt and started beating his step son mercilessly.

When his mother, Bulbul, tried to intervene, Dharmendra started hitting her as well. On hearing Bulbul's cries, the neighbours got alerted and informed the police.

3-year-old Raj had to be hospitalised since his injuries were so grave. Raj's mother was also hurt when she came to rescue her son from the clutches of his stepfather. In fact, the neighbours had to intervene and call the police to stop the monster dad from hurting the child further.

On knowing that the police is on its way, Dharmendra ran from the spot. Raj was taken to the hospital by the police and is recovering now. The poor old boy has badly injured his stomach, chest, eyes, mouth and a few other parts of the body.

Making learning fun for little ones

Teaching small kids can be a tedious and time-consuming experience. The only key is to be patient and make it fun for them. Here are a few things to keep in mind when teaching kids anything for the first time:

1.Only introduce at first and don't expect them to master a particular thing at the first attempt.

2. Do not teach if your child is under stress, sleepy or not interested.

3. Take only 5 minutes to teach a new concept as that is how long the concentration span of three-year-olds is.

4. By no means, should you get violent or angry while teaching your child as it might scare them

5. Appreciate them and reward them at every small step.
