RE: ARE WE TEACHING OUR CHILDREN THE CORRECT PRINCIPLES AND VALUES IN LIFE?

in #life7 years ago

I've found that children aren't very receptive to feedback unless you have invested the time to have a really good relationship with them. You can tell them about good habits, honesty, etc; but if they lack the will it is useless. You need to have fun with them and have conversations where you don't put any pressure on them - just let them be their honest selves, and talk about anything they are interested in. After that you can have more fruitful discussions. That's my experience. In any case, it's incredibly interesting and challenging!

Thank you Idealist, I agree you need to let them know you love them and are interested in them, and then you teach them by example as the occasions arise. We need to realize that we are our children's role models and if we teach them a principle we have to live by that principle or else they will think we are huge hypocrites.
