Gopika replied. I haven' t heard too good reviews of MP either especially the Noida sector 19 branch. In fact their play area/open area is also very small. I would prefer Little scholar or little Pearls anyday to Mothers Pride Maitheli replied. This playschool is only bothered about minting money. It is packaging sans substance. Tell me honestly, would you like to send your kids to a playschool whose ownners are are notorious for their corrupt practices [ SG' s husband husband is a corrupt MCD engineer]???
Well, I have wasted a lumpsome amount of money on their registration money and they did not even bother to give a reminder call at the time of admission.[remember their persisting phone calls during marketing].
Well, I am sending my daughter to \" LITTLE SCHOLAR\" in Noida and am pretty satisfied there till date.
My sincere advice- Please stay away from MP. It is a big farce in the name of playschool.
Thanks namratasen replied. Hi!
Who said to avoid Mother' s Pride. I am a very contended parent of Mother' s PRide. My son studied in 2002 and daughter has passed out in 2006. Amazing bond with teachers and wonderful results. Both the kids are in DPS and showing great performance. Sad to hear for Rashmi' s daughter but mishappening can happen anywhere. My daughter got hurt at home when she was with me. My son got a frature of left hand while showing taekwondo moves at friends place. We can' t blame school and people. Infact tell and groom our little ones. God bless all little todlers.
Mother' s PRide is GREAT no doubt.. Rashmi replied. Please avoid mother' s pride. Please read Times of India of August 15 to read my plight. My daughter might loose her finger because of this school.

thanks for the messages!!

thanks a ton for taking out time and giving me some insight as to what your views are.
it is indeed very sad to here about your daughter.
i personally feel that if we send our kids to a school for two hours or so,it is entirely the school´ s responsibility to look after the kid for that period of time after all thats what they are being paid for!?!....so they cant shrug off their irresponsible attitude under the guard of " mihap" ....sorry to say, but there is no scope for errors.
definitely the school is to be blamed specially, when there are thousands of concerned mothers who support the view.

Mothers what???

I agree with Sweeti,

Looks like these ´ twins´ are rare species (who defend the comnmercial institute called Mother´ s Pride)...I hail from Gurgaon and have heard some awful stories about how they are packing 30-35kids in one class, give discounts to all (do they think they are in the business of selling vegetables or soaps???), hire Business Managers to get 100 admissions in a month and have PYTs posing as teachers with absolutely no compassion for the little ones. I just wonder when will this set of gullible parents wake up to the fact that this is absolutely a commercial institution run by corrupt people who have no values in life themselves (remember the MCD officer hoarding the taxpayer´ s money who is Sudha Guptas husband?)...I shudder to think what they will do next...

for Rashmi

Dear Rashmi,
Its easy to give sympathy than to endure the pain yourself.
I dont agree with those who says that the school shouldnot be held responsible.A teacher or a staff sense of responsibilty is no match for a mothers sense of responsibility.
And secondly please read the above messages it appears as if twins have posted the messages favouring MP (They both write the complete name).both blessing your daughter and halo!!!!!! on the same day.
In this portal there are a lot of views about MP and that is an eye opener I tell you.Now some of ´ THE defenders´ would not rest till they contradict my statement but by god I hope they would be truthful to themselves.So, instead of your baby, Rashmi, GOD BLESS THEM.

Please don´ t blame school

Hi Rashmi,
I have read about your daughter, it was very sad. As a mother I had tears in my eyes. But, I disagree with you that school didn´ t look after or Mother´ s Pride school is bad. Once our children go out of our home they have to fight out all the odds. Children are bubly and don´ t understand at this tender age as to how to close door etc. I think a finger coming in the door at school was a mishappening and could have happened anywhere at home too. Don´ t Blame school.... I wish your daughter early recovery. God bless her.

Regards
Rahul
