Parents always wish their child happiness, only sometimes their ideas about it are wrong. For a child to be truly happy, mom and dad themselves need to be like that.
Taking care of a child is natural for parents, they always dream that their son or daughter will be successful. Failures of children are perceived as an insult, and accusations to their other half that the child is stupid and insignificant, all in him, can not achieve anything.
You need to love a child
Loving a child does not at all mean that he should have all the best, and parents should hurt themselves in order to provide all this. To love is to accept the little man as he already is. It is ridiculous to demand ideal behavior and correct action from a toddler who cannot walk on his own! He needs help to get to his feet.
Help consists of various activities, primarily communication. You need to talk with the baby, talk, even if he does not yet understand speech. But he learns to pronounce sounds. It is important that poetry is read to him, fairy tales or stories that are appropriate for age are told at night. The child learns, learns, there is no need to interfere with this, it is better to help. Let him walk barefoot through a flowering meadow, just not on a lawn in a big city, it's dangerous! She spanks in boots in a puddle, plays snowballs with her peers.
What you shouldn't do for your child's happiness
It is impossible to be capricious, you will then have to work only on the child's toys, the prices of which will increase in proportion to his age. And you shouldn't give birth "for yourself" either, the child is raised for care. A child born to a single mother only with the aim of bringing her a glass of water in old age becomes a "mama's boy", and a "loving" mother will never allow him to marry, break any bond of her matured man.
Many 40-year-olds live next to their mother, they do not know how to build relationships, they run to their mother for any reason. And this attitude towards the child has nothing to do with sincere love for him. This is only a manifestation of her own selfishness and the mother's great love for herself.
Happy child family
In a happy family, there is no habit of eating "dry food" that does not need to be cooked. Tastes are formed from childhood, so the mother prepares food, and traditional lunches (breakfasts, dinners) are gathered around the table by the whole family. Parents must organize the daily routine correctly so that the child does not fall asleep on the keyboard deep after midnight, and in the morning does not miss the first lessons at school.
And the mother should raise the baby from birth, and not entrust him to strangers who carry out only mechanical care, do not give either love or warmth of the soul. It is impossible to quarrel in front of a child, it devastates him morally, since he has one love, for both parents. And he cannot make a difficult choice at a tender age, neuroses appear from this, behavior changes, and for the worse.
