There are several things that mom and dad should never do in front of their child.
The article is not devoted to obvious parental mistakes, but to those oversights that, at first glance, are not dangerous.
In fact, any of these actions can lead to serious consequences.
For example, to a deterioration in the relationship between parents and the child. Or to a drop in the child's self-esteem.
So, what exactly should you not do in front of your son or daughter?
Argue
Parents should not quarrel in front of their child.
If you still couldn’t avoid a conflict situation developing in front of your child, then at least don’t involve your son or daughter in the family “confrontation.”
Never demand that your child support you and oppose the other parent.
Redoing what the child has done
Let's imagine a situation: a child has cleaned his room himself. And then the mother continues cleaning.
The child will probably perceive this as the following hint: “You did everything wrong. You have to redo it.”
As a result, the child will become upset, will begin to consider himself a failure and will lose motivation for further actions.
If the child has not completed the work, tell him about it. Point out the missed moments. Let the child finish the task on his own.
If you still want to finish the work yourself, do it outside the presence of your child.
Complaining about a child to another person
Do not criticize your child in conversation with other people. Especially if the child hears this conversation.
Such parental action will certainly be perceived by the child as a betrayal.
Earlier we talked about how to make a child more self-confident.
