Introduction
Greetings everyone it feels good to be able to participate in yet again another Steemit engagement challenge S16/W3 which is being hosted here in the hindwhales community that is titled "Who has the strongest influence on children? Father, mother, teacher, siblings, or friends? "
Who has the strongest influence on a child isn't always fix in a sense that in some cases the father can be the one who has the strongest influence on a child likewise the mother as well as the teacher, siblings and friends.
But which ever has the strongest influence below we are going to discuss on the various ways in which each of them contribute in influencing a child, so without wasting much time let's proceed.
How Does A Father Have A Strong Influence On Children?
The father being the head of the family has a very strong influence on children in so many ways, you know some father's do not always take it kindly when it comes to child's discipline not to mention when they misbehave that is why father's seems to be one of the most Influential when it has to do with children.
Father's are always very strict with their discipline with the application of force and order of command which compelled a child to a must obey state of mind thus influencing their general behavior and decisions.
While most father's seems to make use of soft words cherishing a father and children relationship using that to weaken their tantrums and influencing them positively in order of good behavior
How Does A Mother Have A Strong Influence On Children?
Now this is the most interesting part, the mother is always gentle and patient when it comes to their children, and by so doing cherishing the mother and children relationship and using that to influence them beyond imagination.
Though most children always take their simplicity for granted especially the female adolescent child, I've seen on in our community were she wouldn't even care to help out her mom in the kitchen all she does is just go out have fun then come back despite her mom trying to convince her that such behavior isn't good.
But on a normal note mothers with their special approach on children are able to influence a child far more better than how father's could because they make use of kind words, promising rewards like (extra food for good behavior) etc.
How Does The Teacher Have A Strong Influence On Children?
This kind of influence I call it martial law in a sense that the teacher influences a child moral and psychological behavior through the use of punishment as a reward for disobedience
Which is the say that a teacher has an effective way of influencing and shaping a child's behavior but only for the main time (school sessions) while in class which to me such influence isn't as much effective as compared to father and mother's influence.
How Do Siblings Have A Strong Influence On Children?
Siblings have a strong influence on children in so many great ways and some of them this siblings tends out to be completely ignorant of what is going on, I know you are confused here but I will explain.
Speaking from experience siblings may influence their younger siblings without even knowing for example a child sees how her senior brother putting starch on clothes after a while the children will want to follow their seniors in trying to also put starch on their clothes also just to dress like senior.
How Do Friends Have A Strong Influence On Children?
Now this is the most Influential if I'm not mistaking and it is otherwise called peer group influence, have you ever noticed that you may want to dress up a child in other to maybe go out and play then all of a sudden he or she says mommy/daddy I don't like this clothes or I don't want to wear this one.
All that is as a result of influence from peers (friends) because at the point of wearing that particular clothes they will remember that their friends used to make fun of them or that isn't what is trending in school, that which is as a result of peer group influence.
And it is also common amongst adult, you see your neighbor buys a new car you will want to also buy your own so as to feel among, in college you see all your friends having a girlfriend you will also want to have one so as not to be a loner, so that is why I'd said that this is the most common and strongest influence of all.
Conclusion

Hello friend
You shared how much the mothers are of extreme care and support to the kids as they are patient and kind waiting for their kids to change. They make it a point of duty to see to it that they train their kids well. He father is the strong one in the home, he applied give most times to see to it that the kids learn while making it a point of duty to provide for these kids. I enjoyed your entry and success in the challenge my dear friend
I very much appreciate it thanks
It can be said that the influence of siblings on children is special due to the closeness they have with those children. For example, if a child has a slightly distant relationship with his siblings, the bond between them will decrease to some extent.
Wish you good luck in wonderful engagement challenge bro.
