People say that being a parent is easy,but parenting is difficult. We receive no formal training, nor are we provided with a clear set of guidlines about the right way of parenting. But once a parent. we are constantly scrutinised and criticised on how we proceed with the job. Most of us muddle along on our own way. Usually one tries to be just like ones parents or does the exact opposite things, depending on the one’s experiences while growing up.
being effective parents requires a lot of dedication and patience along wigh love, care and attention. It may be time consuming but brings very rewarding fruits in the long run. Our kids today are the future generation of tomorrow and they will prosper when devotion and effort is put into bringing them up. Parenting is tough. It is one of the most important responsibilities you will have in your life. Wigh all the complications and distractions of the modern world one has to stay connected with the kids no matterwhat their age is. When a two way communication is established and maintained, there develops and effetive parenting process as well as a set of successful parents.
But what are the thumb rules of being good parents ? Back when our parents were born, parenting techniques and skills were learnt from the extended family. the elders, like grandparents, uncles, aunts, in-laws and others were there to guide and impart wisdom to the younger generation on the likes of pregnancy, childbirth and raising children. Today jnuclear families are prevalent in our society, with nobody to provide suggestions and advice to couple.
Remember what Gandhi said, ‘If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.’ children bring us much joy and contentment. Taking the time to plan ahead can lessen the stress and worry we experience while rasing them.
