21st Century Parenting Skills

 Fab Five Parenting Funda of 21st Century !!!

Reading this Blog on 21st century parenting, we are sure you will understand the situations and today’s generation and we all will be able to bridge this generation gap.

1. 1.Understand the Interest

Every child is special, unique and gifted with some talent. Try to identify your child’s interest and shape his talent.

For example, you want your child to be a doctor but he/she is only interested in music than please start encouraging your child to be the best, the most popular musician in the world.

If you don’t encourage your child, then India is going to miss a great musician and at the same time we are not sure he will be a good doctor but we are so sure that misunderstanding will be forever between you both and it ends with the destruction of your relationship and Love.

2. Avoid Comparison

Do not compare your child with anyone, not even with siblings as no two individual in this world is born with the same IQ, same EQ, same thinking or same opinion, same tastes etc.

Every child is a unique though they may be identical twins of same parents for surprisingly!

Identify your child’s talent, interests, tastes, opinions and grow them and make sure the child shines in that particular area with your support and encouragement.

3. Practical Knowledge is more important than bookish knowledge

Avoid putting your child under the burden of only educational books but let the child explore the world of practical knowledge too. It is said that “Knowledge without practice is useless, practice without knowledge is dangerous.”

It’s parents’ duty to make their child practically sound on any topic of every subject.

 

4. Children need your presence not the presents

Your child starts learning character-development, personality development, value-based education right from the school age seeing you, observing you.

At least 30 minutes spend your time with your children, laugh with them, cry with them, share your limited emotions with them, and make them understand what you are! And what you are for!!

The special, pleasant, great present (gift), you can give to your child is

 “If you don’t love them – don’t expect love from them”
“If you are lazy – don’t expect them to be active”
“If you are characterless – don’t expect them to be with good character.”

“Plant a seed of love and get lovely fruits.”

5. Be the Best Parent for your child not for society

1.    There are many things that a child learns from his/her peer-groups. So have an Eye-On your child’s peer group.

2.      When your child makes you emotional-blackmail? Then immediately say NO to his/her mobile and other electronic gadgets because its misuse is dominating them we know you can’t do it.

3.      There’s no problem in saying NO to your child for his/her good, but always explain the reason.

Parenting is not a rocket science, just listen to your heart and it follows the path.

 Happy Parenting…!!! J
