Parenting

Parenting is important because parents can prepare and protect their children with the knowledge to know how to survive in this world. They shouldn’t use punishment and rewards to control their children. Children can rebel if parents push them over the edge. Natural consequences can be negative or a positive outcomes as children develop. Parent should teach their children about responsibility and respect them for their decisions they make.

Some parents use punishments and rewards to manipulate their children to get them to do what they want. The more the parents try to over-control their children, it won’t be as likely that they will have an influence on their children. Sometimes parents who feel like they failed as a parent when their children were younger try to make up for it by giving them gifts, money, and other things. It’s very disrespectful for parents to use awards to make their children feel better or to ease their guilt of what they did to their children. For example, a parent shouldn’t be buying them something as an apology. This shows the child that the parents don’t care about their feelings.

Children will rebel if their parents humiliate or mock them in public. Parents shouldn’t make all the decisions for their children if they are old enough to make their own choices. It will not teach the children to resolve their problems and they won’t get to learn how to handle the solution the correct way. If the parents are harsh while teaching their children a lesson, it won’t work because the children will feel inferior to their parents. The children will also be afraid to know what to say or do without disappointing their parents. When parents put lots of pressure on their children to do what they want them to do, the children sometimes stop listening and obeying them. This shows a lack of trust with the parent and the children won’t feel comfortable telling their parents anything. Children will also lose the ability to make decisions on their own because they didn’t get an opportunity to practice making choices for themselves.

Children will have many opportunities to make decisions for themselves and learn from their mistakes. It’s important for parents to make sure their children are not doing dangerous things to put their lives at risk. Parents can’t always rescue their children when they are struggling, and it can be difficult for the parents to see them suffer. The parents can provide support and convey confidence in their children. Sometimes, parents should not ever allow to their children to make extreme choices for themselves that can affect them in the long run. For example, parents allowing the child to stop going to school because he doesn’t like his classes.

Overall, parents can encourage their children in what they are doing well. They can respect the children’s decisions, even if the disagree themselves. Parents can express their appreciation as they see who their children become. This will help their children learn to take responsibility for their actions and will help them know of how to be successful.
