“Values provide a framework for living. When you make choices that are aligned with your values, you built your character and a sense of self-worth. When you compromise your values, you are living a lie. The stronger your values are, the more stable and secure you will be” – Unknown.
With family and surroundings, children are conditioned to love, fear, or hate before they are even able to reason. An early influence on any child starts with the family.
Throughout the lives of children, we need to emphasize the virtue of GRATITUDE to them. They should imbibe the habit of thanking the parents of their friends if they have eaten at their HOMES, sure they should offer thanks to whoever showed kindness or any sort of help to them. Of the all displeasing traits children could exhibit, the ingratitude way of life could affect their peace in the future. Hence, we should inculcate a habit of thanksgiving and love towards human beings more than the material exchange of stuff.
THANKSGIVING goes a long way in building a character for a long prosperous future.
As a parent, showing respect to one’s child’s needs and concerns in private or in front of relatives or friends should never be taken on a lighter note, as kids learn to reciprocate the same insult or ignorance to others when they grow big, especially with their spouse or kids. Unhealthy patterns of emotions can become a part of their everyday life. And such kids fall to abandonment, excluded, or deprived in many ways and continue with these patterns even when they grow up.
Mistreating, ignoring, or controlling them can only aggravate any situation and the effect of this will be a lifelong loss of confidence in achieving any desired goals. Life traps begin when early childhood environments are destructive. Hence, creating a healthy atmosphere of love, gratitude, and respect at home will act as stronger pillars for life for YOUR kid’s future from many perspectives.
Healthy living with a healthy mind and nurturing environment is what all kids should get in childhood at home and outside the world, for kids to thrive and outperform.
Teach them IMPULSE CONTROL. Letting them face and vision for realistic limits with self-discipline under permitted freedom and appropriate limits is where a child performs to become RESPONSIBLE.
Just dig the well deep inside and see how well our children do if we praise, support, and guide them in areas of achievement to tap their UTMOST POTENTIAL.
Do not spoil your children by giving them whatever they want. Today’s parents have a cling to provide whatever the child desires, it’s good up to some extent, but see to that they do not get used to it. Or later the consequences may be that your kid will start controlling you with his/her needs.
Teach children TOLERANCE towards FRUSTRATIONS. Force them to take the responsibilities of the assigned tasks, including household chores or schoolwork.
Parents are role models to kids when talking about self-control and self-discipline. The same is likely reciprocated in kids when they grow up.
“Parents who are out of control produce children who are out of control. It is through parental self-control that kids, learn to control themselves.” – Unknown
To a working MOM, your children get only one childhood. Spend some actual quality time. Once gone time, will never come back, and once gone childhood -teaching good manners, will never come back. Don’t long or regret those times, when you see your child misbehaving and taunting you for your own actions.
