i.e.
4. Not giving children quality time:
Parents always shows themselves busy with their work i.e. business work,, jobs, household chores, ferrying children to and from activities, excessive mobiles and Internet, watching TV etc.
They forget that our children need our enough attention to them so they realise that they are not getting ignored by their parents.
They also need to assured their kids that if anything is troubling them, then they are always with them and will help it to sort. They need parents to play with them, to listen to them and help them understand the whole world and its workings.
To fix: Make sure that you are giving enough time to your kids and try to make feel them that they are your priority, rather than having eye on the Internet, TV , their mobile or any other stuff.
5. Not setting yourselves as an good examples or role models:
Its truth that children always learn what they see in their childhood and get affected by that. And in future there are more chances of the kid's behaving like his/ her parents, when they will be an adult.
Some parents regularly lose their temper or fight with each other so it affects their kid's in very wrong manner. And the consequences may be end up with the kids are that they may become abusive in their future. We only teach our children about anger management but dont apply on ourselves. We show them that raising your voice and using force to control others is acceptable. If parents can control their own anger they will never earn the respect of their children.
To fix: So, if parents wants their child to grow up to be generous, kind, funny, happy, loving, thoughtful and respectful, genuine towards other people or society. Then they need to first turn themselves to be in such a manner so that their kid's learn these qualities from that.
Moreover, some parents do not allow their kids to play and interact with other kids i.e. poor kids or kids who are of lower status financially.
This thought hampers the entire values and fundamental ethics of the mind of a kid when he is forced to feel himself /herself superior than other. And this can lead to negative and long term impact on the child so that he/her can become too anxious later in life. It can even encourage certain harmful behaviours like smoking, consuming alcohol and so on.
To fix: Always teach your kid the value of being a human being and how to being a good human being first. Other things he / she will absorb automatically when they are done with this.
