Business Description:The exposure that today's generation gets is far greater than what any of the earlier generations have experienced. This kind of exposure brings along with it both positives and negatives.
Our society is also caught up in the middle of a cultural metamorphosis where working parents and nuclear families have become a norm of the day. Hence our younger generations are deprived of the traditional social backing and family support systems that existed earlier.
Faced with increased levels of competition, media explosion and information overload one is left searching aimlessly for the right source of guidance for their problems. This is where we pitch in. We do not offer any quick fixes or instant solutions. But what we do offer is a safe, secure and personal guidance to all teenagers who seek us.
