Every parent wants their children to be successful people when they grow up.
However, often mothers and fathers themselves deprive the child of opportunities for self-realization.
A boy or a girl is forbidden to have a particular hobby. Because of this, the child does not acquire knowledge and skills.
As a result, children grow up unhappy people who are never able to realize their talent.
Recommendation for parents
Moms and dads should remember one simple rule - "Do not forbid your child to do what he likes."
Of course, we are talking about actions that do not pose a danger to the baby and do not interfere with other people.
Is the boy interested in cooking or sewing? Is the girl interested in football? Great! Let the child continue doing it.
There is no need for prohibitions and restrictions. Stereotypes about "non-male" and "non-female" activities should also be forgotten.
You shouldn’t distract a child from things that seem insignificant and frivolous to parents.
Has your child become interested in the history of shipbuilding? Let him study the relevant literature. It is possible that in adulthood he will be able to realize himself in this direction.
If you forbid a child to do something, assuring him that "math/foreign language/physics is more important", then the child will not gain knowledge. It will be difficult to catch up later.
If you force your son or daughter to do something they don’t like, they are unlikely to become real professionals in adult life.
