When raising a daughter, it is worth considering a number of important factors, since girls are very thoughtful, so a carelessly thrown phrase can have negative consequences.
Therefore, some expressions are best not used at all.
What phrases should you not say to your daughter?
"You've gained a lot of weight."
This phrase is especially dangerous during puberty, but younger girls will not react positively to it either. A child's excess weight primarily indicates that the parents were unable to organize proper nutrition and form decent eating habits.
Girls react very sensitively to such comments, because excess weight is a serious blow to self-esteem.
Experts recommend not to raise this topic. It is necessary to understand what is the reason for the problem. Then it is necessary to think over a plan for the solution.
"You clean and cook so badly, no one will marry you"
If a girl hears that in the process of family life she will only have to cook and clean the apartment, which should also be at a certain high level, then she may not want to get married at all.
First of all, a girl wants to be an individual whose opinion and interests are important. The way she cleans and cooks should not become a characteristic of her personality.
Besides, such statements create a negative attitude towards marriage. So just help your daughter improve her skills, but do not allow thoughtless comments.
"How can this be? You're a girl!"
Often daughters hear this phrase when instead of a dress or skirt that is beautiful, in the opinion of their parents, they choose shorts and trousers. The comment can also be "earned" when the child chooses cars and a construction set instead of dolls.
It is worth understanding that girls should develop in accordance with their interests. If she behaves actively, this does not mean that she suddenly becomes a boy. Therefore, you should not use such an expression.
