Being a parent is a huge responsibility.

And probably every woman wants to be the best mother for her child. But even seemingly ideal parents fail.

The most common mistakes in raising children.

1. No obligations

A child is harmed by a too simple life, when he has no obligations, and parents rather save on additional clubs. Already at a tender age, the child should understand that everyone has not only rights, but also responsibilities.

Simple little things - helping in the kitchen from time to time, taking out the trash, pouring water for the dog, etc.

But through these actions, the child learns that it is important to take action in life, and in the future, he will grow up to be a responsible person, able to work together and solve problems.

2. Lack of feelings

A child should feel that his parents love him and are interested in the problems of their child.

If not, you are raising a person who will not be able to freely express his feelings in the future. He will become aggressive or, on the contrary, fearful, uncommunicative.

3. Lack of time for your child

There is nothing sadder than seeing a child who is eagerly waiting for his dad to come home from work, and when he finally comes, he sits down in front of the TV and does not want to be disturbed.

We must spend time on our child every day. Let it be a little. It is important how you spend these hours.

4. Devaluation and insults

If you treat your child inappropriately, this will lead to the little person losing faith in himself, as well as confidence in you, the parents.

Next time he will ask his question to someone else for fear of humiliation. It is necessary to praise the child even for little things, efforts should also be appreciated.

It is important to try to answer each of his questions, to be interested in the baby when something bothers him. If you do this with your child, he will see you as a friend who can be approached at any time.

There is no ideal. No person is capable of being perfect. Therefore, you should not compare your child with other children and adjust them to some standard.

It’s better to teach your child to see himself as an individual and develop his own unique qualities.
