We often see how a little daughter often wears her mother’s dress and how the little boy wears his father’s shoes. Little children always wish to be like their parents. This is a clear example of how you as a parent have a huge impact over your child.
Do we realize the importance of how our actions influence the child?
As parents, many of us do not realize the importance of the power of positive parenting. This is mainly because of the following reasons:
- Many parents do not fully accept the fact that their actions actually influence the kid. They may believe that genetics or social surroundings play a bigger role in the child’s development.
- Parents may receive conflicting advice from friends, family, or professionals about the “right” way to parent. Hence, at times parents are often confused about the correct approach.
- Parents may have unrealistic expectations for their child’s development or future success. Hence they often feel disappointed when the child does not meet the expectations.
Many researches show how parental behaviours have a lasting impact on the child’s social and emotional development. Studies show that providing emotional support and creating a positive environment lead to higher self-esteem and academic achievement amongst kids, whereas on the other hand, unwanted criticism and neglect have a negative impact on the child.
Here, we are listing down a few ways of positive parenting in which you can put up a positive impact on your child’s development:
- Begin with recognizing and accepting the fact that you as a parent have a power that will shape your child’s future.
- Practice values and beliefs. Your children always look up to you, hence it is very much important that you follow and practice the values and beliefs that you want your child to adopt.
- Provide emotional support. Emotional support helps kids to develop their self-esteem. When they are provided with proper emotional support, they feel loved.
- It is always important to support what your child wants. Supporting the child’s likes and passions helps the kid to develop a sense of purpose.
- Create a friendly learning environment. A learning environment where the kid is happy and feels positive helps the kid to develop liking towards learning and academics.
