RE: Difficulty teaching children
I don't like the word "study" especially not if I see pictures of small children. Is life really only about studying? How about learning things by playing? By watching wat others do?
Not only parents are tired but children as well. I consider it an unhealthy situation, the pressure put on the children and parents.
There's a time for everything and only if children want they are willing to study.
By the way, it's scientifically proven that children lie, even those who have never been punished, and it already starts (as far as could be proved) at the age of 2 years old.
I'm not good at taking pictures to illustrate reading material. I accept that, but I'll pay more attention in the future.
Discipline patterns must start early and, of course, be tailored to the child's circumstances. Two-year-olds can be taught to differentiate between what's okay and what's not by saying "NO, NO, NO" (of course, without shouting).
We can guide them more persuasively. Sometimes, with two-year-olds, we don't just use words but also actions. For example, if we see a child walking on a slippery surface, we can ask them to avoid that area or pick them up to prevent them from falling. We then advise them and explain that the area is slippery and can cause them to slip.
Learning requires synergy from all parties. Parents, siblings, and the environment contribute to fostering a child's passion for learning. When children see their environment as a place where they are accustomed to studying, reading, taking notes, and creating, they will be motivated to do the same.
However, if the surrounding environment is full of children who enjoy going out, shopping, and playing, it can be very difficult to encourage children to study. While studying, they might suddenly receive calls from their friends to play. Their previously focused time is suddenly interrupted by a peer's invitation to play. Especially if they already have a close friendship, it can be very difficult for children to refuse such invitations.
In this case, parents need to play first to maintain their child's focus on studying. However, they shouldn't miss out on a childhood filled with play.
Parents should do their best to tell their children that studying comes first, followed by playing with friends.
