Not all parents can boast of having unconditional authority in the eyes of their child: it takes a long time to achieve this.
Some people believe that you can "scare" children with authoritarian parenting methods or bribe them with gifts.
However, this cannot be called unconditional respect.
What 5 tricks will help you become more authoritative in the eyes of your child
Don't lie
The greatest disappointment of a child is that the closest people he respects and loves deceived him.
Therefore, it is always worth being honest. If you cannot tell the truth in a given situation, it is better to avoid answering than to lie.
Protection
Children feel much more secure if they understand that mom and dad will always protect them and take their side. Therefore, in conflicts with strangers, you should not make hasty conclusions.
Try to defend your child's interests.
Learn to accept rejection gracefully
Experts note that the family should have clear rules and prohibitions that cannot be violated. If children notice that you do not retreat from your position, they will respect you more.
Sometimes learning to say no to your beloved children is extremely difficult, but it is an important and necessary skill.
Become an interesting person
Not all parents realize that children will admire their mom and dad more if they are proud of them. That is why it is important to become the best version of yourself.
Watch your speech, look neat even at home, and behave with dignity in society.
Mutual respect
You shouldn't demand respect unilaterally: the child should feel that he/she is also important and valuable. If you treat children with respect, they will also consider you an authoritative person.
