Step 1
Any child is the most invaluable, unique creature with unlimited possibilities and able to achieve anything if only he wishes. To help a child form his personality and uniqueness, he just needs to be allowed to live in his own way, only by guiding him. And the first thing your baby needs is love.
Step 2
Praise your child. And the more often the better. For the slightest progress, whenever the opportunity presents itself, praise your child. Praise strengthens the child's belief that he is unique, strong, talented. We ourselves do not suspect how deeply parental words, attitudes and even intonations sit in our subconscious. Sometimes we catch ourselves thinking that we are used to doing the way dad or mom did it. Unconsciously, automatically!
Step 3
If a child knows and believes that he is smart, then he will become so. If the child knows and believes that he is brave and he will become so. And if a child is told from the cradle that he is stupid, he will involuntarily begin to believe in this.
Step 4
Give happiness, freedom to your children. If parents are happy, then their children also learn from them to be happy. If the parents themselves are unhappy, then the children will learn to be unhappy. There are no exceptions! The state of happiness is contagious. Cast aside your adult seriousness and see the world with a child's eyes. Fool around and have fun unafraid. Don't be afraid to sound funny. Listen to the child, try to understand what he thinks, feels. Tell the children about your childhood, how funny and funny you were. Do not dismiss your children if they turn to you, otherwise after a few years your child will not want to share his thoughts and desires with you.
Step 5
Talk to children as if you were a child and what you yourself wanted to hear from your parents. Remind them how much you love them. Do not get tired of repeating to your child “I love you!”. Remember there is never a lot of love. The more love you give, the more you receive!
Step 6
And remember: everything that the parents do, say, is imprinted in the child's mind forever. Whether we like it or not, habits, habits and even the method of pickling cabbage are transmitted with genes. Children absorb literally everything, both good and bad. And rest assured that they will give it to you sooner or later. Children copy us, so let us be happy to look at their copies.
