Mangaluru, Jun 24: “Children from childhood imitate their father, mother and relatives. They follow in their footsteps throughout their lives. The examples of elders at home and teachers in schools lay the foundations for their values,” said Bengaluru BACCE organization director Swamy Sharad Viharidas.

Besant High School in the city and Vishwa Parishat Mannagudde committee held a discussion forum for parents of school and high school students in the city on the part of parents in children’s education on June 23.
