Parents are being asked to consider whether it is worth teaching their children the art of arguing.
This is a difficult art that not every adult can master. And if someone does not like the name "the ability to argue", remember that it is the same as the ability to defend your opinion.
We'll tell you why children should be able to argue, and why parents shouldn't be afraid of it.
Children who were shielded from this topic or were not even allowed to argue and contradict grow up to be less confident people and have a harder time communicating with their peers.
It is precisely these people who often become victims of other people's influence.
And if a child argues, then at the very least he wants his opinion to be heard.
Choose a situation in which the child will be faced with a choice and will have to make a decision on his own.
This will teach him to think, reason and make decisions based on that reasoning.
Gradually he will learn to hear himself, his opinion and express it.
It has been noted that such children grow up not spoiled or capricious, but purposeful. They know that their parents love them and respect their opinion.
The second important point is that the child must obey his elders in matters that concern his safety and health.
This skill will help you maintain respect for your parents.
As a result, the child will not grow up constrained by a framework or under overprotection, but as a person capable of making his own decisions.
Previously, we talked about why you shouldn’t use empty threats when raising a child.
