Most parents want to raise children who are healthy, confident, cooperative, responsible and who know their limits and make right choices. Here |am presenting an example of an ideal child ‘XYZ” and analyzed why ‘XYZ’ is the way he is and how as parents we have a major role in his upbringing.
At the age of 10 he believes he is a capable child who knows how to resolve his problems if he works on them.
He understands his limits and responsibilities and how to deal with the consequences.
He knows the value of money - ‘can afford’, ‘can’t afford’.
He shows ability to assess himself.
He shares some ability to communicate tactfully, cooperate, negotiate, share, empathize and listen.
“XYZ is a capable child”. It did not happen automatically, but he is a product of much time spent by his parents e Exploring rather than explaining Encouraging and believing in him rather than directing. Celebrating his achievements rather than criticizing his mistakes Showing respect for his behavior and opinions
Involving him in day today decisions and house work to make him feel part of everything that happens in the family
If you want a ‘XYZ’ in your house, you have to be involved, be a friend, have fun and be a guide to your child and reflect on the above mentioned analysis.
