Some parents think that their parenting system is flawless.
Others do not deny that they make mistakes, because they cannot be perfect in everything.
There are types of flaws that almost everyone makes.
What errors are we talking about?
You suppress your child's own opinion.
As soon as children start arguing with you, disagreeing with decisions made, defending their position, some parents “squeeze” personal opinions at the very beginning.
Yes, you may achieve short-term success: the child will be forced to obey you. However, there is a chance that he will no longer try to defend his opinion not only with you, but in general, experts say.
Realization of personal ambitions
No one is immune from this mistake. If parents dreamed of a career as a ballerina or hockey player, they can impose their desires on their children.
The child's opinion is not taken into account at all at this moment.
Constant doubts
Children may already doubt their own abilities because they are not always successful at everything. So there is no need to "add" reasons for their low self-esteem.
