Effective Parenting
The article I am writing about is how to have a great relationship with your children. In this article you will see how the friendship, parent to child relationship at its peak will build a healthy family.
A child should never look at a parent as a friend if they do they will begin to treat you and talk to you like a friend. The first way separate the two is pretty simple, have a child doing what children do play with friends, not hang around adult conversation and last but not least have some type of structure in their lives.
A child when turning the age seven needs some type of small chores around the house to be taught values and morals within life nothing will come without working daily no matter what you do. Its very important how this mentally effects a child while growing up.
When a child does wrong there has to be some type of discipline every time a problem happens or the same things will keep happening and as the child grows up to be an adult the problems get worst. I dont mean you have to abuse your child but simply be consistent when there is a problem. Example if he or she starts doing bad in school at first its a warning, if the same problem keeps happening you turn up the heat a little bit. Take something away that means something to them. Next step would be to take there freedom away ground them but make sure there is no activities while there grounded. That's what the police does when you do bad right? Take your freedom and strip you of your rights.
What we do as parents affect how our children are today what they see on t.v also affects how they are in certain ways so as parents we should never do things around our kids we don't want them to repeat lead by example our children are an example of their homes. Like they say you are a product of your environment.
Always show your kids how much you love them it will go a long way in life not just by rewarding them but by doing what ever you can to make them the best person ever. A lot of adults take the shortcut and would rather buy something for a kid than take the time and sit and see the child for who they really are.
This is not intended to bash the parents but instead give a little more motivation to bring your family closer. Most of us work all day anyway so about time you get home your ready to relax and handle other things so we tend to ignore the bigger picture. But the biggest and most important is the children of the future.
