3 Parental Phrases That Program a Child for an Unhappy Life

20.01.2024 06:20

Will the child grow up to be a happy person? It depends on many factors. Including the attitude of the parents.

If mom and dad support the baby and set him up for success, then the chances will be very high.

But if parents “program” their child for unhappiness, then nothing good can be expected.

Do you want everything to go well in your son or daughter's life? Never say the following words to your child:

"You won't succeed"

Your child wants to draw something or fix something? Don't set him up for failure in advance.

Let the kid try and then decide for himself whether he succeeded or not. This way you will give the child the opportunity to act, acquire skills and not be afraid of mistakes.

"You are lazy and untalented"

Don't focus on the baby's shortcomings.

Yes, maybe the child is not very good at something. But if you constantly talk about it, the child will simply get used to the label of "loser" and "incompetent", and this will reduce the chances of future success in life.

"And here is your classmate..."

Comparing your baby to other children is a bad strategy.

A child is unlikely to follow a classmate's example. Instead, he will come to the following conclusion: "He is better than me, I can't be like him."

A person is unlikely to become happy if he considers himself worse than others.

Earlier we talked about a simple psychological trick that can help stop a child's bad behavior.
