Children are a delight. They are to be taken care of and trained to become good adults no matter the
challenges.
Yes challenges. Because of biological, environmental and psychological factors, children can be affected negatively. A child can be born blind, dumb or cripple. The environment into which a child is born can also make him/her dull or rusty. Psychologically, a child can see things from a
wrong and different point of view. A child can do something bad and see nothing wrong with it.
Parents are faced with uncountable challenges. Sometimes it becomes a problem.
Inspite of all these, it it the responsibility of every parent to guide and train their children. To factual, it is not easy. Alot of time,effort and money is required. But whatever the difficulties, it is their responsibility to cater for their children. When they have this at the back of their minds, it will propel them to live up to expectation.
Children can be
difficult, naughty etc. but remember everybody has been a child been a child before. Lets just compare the way we used to think and act when we were children to our present
state of doing things. The point is; we
shouldnt expect too much from children. We shouldnt see them as adults. This notwithstanding, they should be corrected when they go wrong, but in a lovely manner; such that the child will understand why he/she is been corrected. Correction does not mean punishment alone. Counselling a child does alot of wonders. Children grow up with the kind of training given them and the attitude shown towards them. It is very difficult if not impossible to change a persons views and attitudes in life. Such views and attitudes are acquired from childhood. Its just like a building. The foundation which is the earliest and foremost state of the building is what determines its strength and longevity.
Also just like anybody, children have their pride. Comparing a child to his fellow mates or humiliating a child in public only makes them discouraged and sometimes rusty. When a child has some form of deformity or weakness, the love and support a parent gives yields positive results.
Another major thing parents should avoid is making a child feel inferior amongst his/her siblings. It can cause hatred from the child towards his/her parents and siblings. It can also cause mental disorders and the bad habit of inferiority complex.
Therefore parents must appreciate even the little success of their children and encourage them to build upon their successes. They must also have time to monitor the activities of their children and train them very well.
