Being a good parent is a lot of work. Each generation is different from the previous one, the methods of education, like the world around us, are constantly changing. Being a modern parent means being able to adapt to these changes yourself and teach your child to live in harmony with the environment.
Instructions
Step 1
The essence of parenting is to raise a child as a worthy member of society. Your baby must become independent, learn to live in society, adhering to the laws and moral norms. To give such upbringing, the parents themselves need to be extremely sensitive to change. Pay attention to your surroundings. If there are examples of good parenting nearby, learn from the experience of such parents. It is not out of place to seek the help of a specialist. Psychologists of kindergartens and schools help to solve many problems and choose methods of education.
Step 2
One of the mistakes that modern parents make is the upbringing of the younger generation in the spirit in which they were brought up themselves. Some say: "I was flogged - and I will flog my son." Think about it, maybe your child deserves better treatment? How did you feel after being physically punished as a child? Learn from your parenting mistakes and don't repeat them.
Step 3
Try to be a worthy example for your children - this is the best way to educate. “Do as an adult” - children begin to follow this principle from infancy, it is an instinct. It is pointless to talk about the dangers of nicotine and alcohol, to make any convincing arguments if you yourself smoke and drink often. “Double standards” irritate children and make them prone to deception. Get rid of bad habits, play sports, read more, live with interest in everything around you - and your child will do the same.
Step 4
Pass on your life experiences to your children. Explain to them that any action comes back in one way or another. If a child behaves aggressively, he will be treated with fear and distrust, and in the future such behavior will lead to a lack of friends, conflicts, etc.
Step 5
Take care of your child's safety. Unfortunately, in the modern world, children are in danger everywhere. That is why modern parents are constantly worried about the younger generation. And when this anxiety becomes unbearable, they resort to the authoritarian method of control. Try to avoid this extreme.
Step 6
Spend more time with your child. Career and business are important to a family's financial well-being, but close and trusting relationships are more important in parenting. Flicking off your child under the pretext of important things, one day you will find that he has matured, and you do not know him at all. In adolescence, this is fraught with the fact that your child will make many mistakes that could have been avoided.
