How to raise a healthy child
Perhaps one of the most important gifts parents can give to their children
is a healthy, positive and meaningful upbringing, which makes their little
children confident and positive in outlook to face the challenges in life
in future. Believe me that no amount of worldly and monetary accomplishments
can substitute the excellent upbringing you can give your child. And it
is easy and practical to do that. It is no rocked science and demands just
your time and commitment to be a part of the growing years of your child.
In fact many of the personality problems which emerge later in life of many
a person takes their roots in their childhood in the manner in which they
were raised or handled during their formative years.
Following simple but practical tips will help you in raising a positive
and confident child:
- Learn to be appreciative. Respond with pride whenever your child
accomplishes a task, however small it may seem to you. Get excited genuinely
by the success of your kid, give them a pat on the back, clap, smile
and feel and express happiness. Words like ‘wonderful’ ‘bravo’,
‘great’ and ‘good job done’ should not only
be a part of your office vocabulary but also used lavishly for your
kids.
- Do not just feel but also communicate verbally with your child about
good things. Be generous with compliments. It won’t cost you a
dime but will mean a million for your kid. Remember that for kids, their
parents are their heroes and the best things they can do to them is
to compliment them.
- Never ever compare your kids with others. Every kid is different
and has her own set of skills and talents. Learn to harness that talent
and skill rather than expect her to be like her friend.
- Never criticize the behavior of your kid in front of others.
- Set special time with your kid and never let outside factor interfere
that time. Be communicative with your kid during that time. Ask her
about what she did in schools. Show genuine interest in her activities
and her friends. This way they will learn to share things with you,
good and bad. Also share your office experience with them in your own
way.
- Do not criticize your child for making mistakes. No one has learnt
any thing in life without making mistakes.
- Always keep your word and promises. Kids remember every little thing
and it can come to you later when you are least prepared. Do not take
your kid for granted.
- Acknowledge and celebrate special occasions such as birthdays and
holidays and family functions together. They are good means of bonding
with your kid.
- Create a supportive, positive and creative environment for your kid
where she can grow and develop without any fear.
- Practice before you preach. Remember that you are under 24/7 surveillance
and every behavior pattern of yours is being watched, understood and
aped by your kid. Do not expect your kid to be truthful when you yourself
lie on phone and your kid knows it. Do not allow yourself to be embarrassed
in front of your small but smart kid.
