Tips to strengthen the character of your child!
How to strengthen the character of the child
The importance of instilling values.
Although children are small and it is more expensive to understand some concepts, you can explain the importance of honesty, kindness, empathy ... through daily stories or example. It is also not that you overwhelm them with this aspect, but you should know that parents are the example of their children, especially in their first years of life.
At four or five years of age, the child will absorb everything he perceives as fears, pleasures or activities. At this stage, the behavior of parents will be very important to them.
Direct interaction with your children.
It is very important that there is a clear and direct communication between parents and children, so that they explain the daily things, identify the problems, the options they have and the consequences of making certain decisions. In this way we will be empowering our son to act in a responsible way and understanding the reason of each of his decisions and actions.
You can ask them each day how they did, find topics to highlight good behavior or reaffirm empathy. If we educate them in this way since they are young, we will be teaching them to be strong and kind people with others
Motivation.
It is important that parents value their children's small achievements and congratulate them. You can say phrases of the time "I'm sure you can do better". Valuing their efforts and motivating them is the best way to grow your children with healthy self-esteem.
Parents tend to punish and comment on the negative behaviors of their children with comments that do not help at all, such as "you always behave badly or you always do badly". It's about helping to correct your child's inappropriate behaviors from a positive angle. What we do by highlighting their negative attitudes is that they create it and become more insecure.
It is a priority that parents strengthen the character of their child and use positive phrases that are what help to shape the character of your child. Instead of saying phrases like "never leave your toys", bet on saying "how good you share your toys, you are very kind".
Promote good actions
You can motivate them to participate in charity activities and to share their toys. In this way, you are teaching them not to be selfish.
It establishes limits in its behavior.
This will give them greater security and tranquility since they will see you as the leader of the family.
Assign responsibilities to your children.
Remember that it is very important that your children help you with home chores according to their age and their needs. In this way you will be contributing to strengthen the character of the child so that it is a participative person in society.
