The parent-teacher meeting is an opportunity to exchange observations of a student with each other. Sharing daily experience and observation provide a wider prospect for parent and teacher to plan, prepare and execute plans for a better learning outcome for a student.

Don Bosco Tech Palda organized a parents' meeting on 12 March 2022 at the Centre where 52 parents were present. In parents meet Fr. Roy Thomas, Director of Janvikas, Trainers, trainees, and parents of our trainees were present. The program began at 11 am with a prayer song which was led by the trainee. Br. Sameer Barwa formally welcomed the parents and gave a brief introduction to Janvikas and DB Tech activities. Four trainees shared their experience and learning of DB Tech Janvikas. They said that they have learned many things along with their domain. They improved a lot in self-confidence and personality development. Before joining DB Tech, they could not speak in front of the public and never got an opportunity to perform on stage. But, after joining DB Tech, they get a lot of opportunities for stage activities and that helped them stand and speak before the public.

After experience sharing Fr. Roy addressed the parents and trainees and shared the story of an engineer who did not understand the pain and struggle of his mother. He said that the DB Tech course is not a free course, hard work and money of someone is involved. He also stressed the importance of doing jobs and supporting the family. He said that the trainee has to begin the job with less salary. Once the trainee has experience he or she could demand a good salary.

We also discussed with parents some issues like parents not sending for the job, not giving freedom, calling children home early, and asking us to reduce time.

There was an interactive session with parents in which they shared the following points:

They have seen positive changes in their children.

Children's behavior has changed lot children and they obey their parents.

DB Tech Janvikas is working for a good cause in training the youth for free.

DB Tech is doing a lot for children therefore parents will give full support to Janvikas in placement and other activities.

The parents' meeting was well organized and it went on well. There was a lot of interaction and sharing between parents and trainers. They said that they felt very good to attend the meeting. They appreciated DB Tech Janvikas for conducting a standard program in skill training. Trainees also felt very good to come with their parents.
