A child should feel parental love and care, but at the same time grow and develop in order to one day become independent and be an individual.
A lot depends on parents in this regard, but seven mistakes that seem insignificant to some can get in the way.
Let's find out what situations in raising children should be avoided.
Devaluation
A child has his own problems and he also has some feelings, emotions. To an adult they may seem trivial, but for a fragile person they will remain serious.
You can't ignore such circumstances. The child must understand that he can always come for advice.
Ridicule
Ridicule, like excessive criticism, will make a child insecure.
It is necessary to support any children's endeavors. You should not use phrases like "it's beyond your power" or others, even if you are sure that the child himself will soon abandon his plans.
Comparison
You can't compare a child with other people's children, or with children of your relatives. That way, he might think that he is not worthy of parental attention, and grow up insecure, envious, and embittered.
Imposing
A child should be guided by his feelings and desires, with the exception of whims. Imposing your opinion, depriving the opportunity to choose is unacceptable.
Instructions
It is also impossible to give instructions and directions on how to live and how to make decisions.
Guardianship
Trying to protect from negativity and unpleasantness, parents are more likely to raise a person who is not ready for anything and is incapable of anything, than a strong personality.
Refusal
If a child does not share their views on life, the worst thing parents can do is to abandon them. True love is always unconditional.
