EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL GUIDANCE FOR CHILDREN
It’s an extremely sensitive subject to talk about!
It’s not easy being a parent! When it comes to parenting, it is always difficult at times to handle children. There is nothing like that one-size-fits-all approach to parenting!
The society we live in now is a rat race, and as parents, we have come to demand 100 percent outcomes from our children in all of the things we deem important.
Most parents don’t realize that their children have unique talents and hobbies, and they place unrealistic expectations on their children.
EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL GUIDANCE FOR CHILDREN
A lack of cooperation and achievement occurs when we compel our children to participate in activities that are not in line with their interests.
When we have the words’ HANDLE WITH CARE WRITTEN ON FRAGILE AND EXPENSIVE PRODUCTS ‘ don’t you all think, our children are like wet clay and they can be mounded and shaped into beautiful masterpieces when handled with a lot of care!
It’s unlikely that you’ll get cooperation from your children by lavishing them with a life of luxury, but who knows? Yes, and you are in charge of it!
Kids today have higher aspirations and a wider range of abilities than previous generations. But we fail to recognize and appreciate their talents, as we say we have no time to understand our children.
We’ve also burdened our children with our interests through the schedule we’ve established, which includes everything from getting up in the morning to finishing the day with homework and extracurricular activities of our choice. I beg your pardon, I do not mean all the parents but most of us!
When we shout at our kids for being confused and disobedient, we don’t take the time to befriend them and listen to them and understand their needs! We parents think of ourselves as ‘Mr. and Mrs. knows it all.’
We believe that we know what is best for our children, which is truly the case don’t forget that kids have their tastes and preferences, too! Children like any other adults have emotions overflowing.
All they need is a little help in understanding their emotions, acknowledging them, and managing it
EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL GUIDANCE FOR CHILDREN: Traditions such as eating dinner together, discussing the day’s activities over dinner, and playing together both inside and outside the home have all disappeared over time.
Blame the modern world for these changes brought in and as a result, the bonding between parents and children has become a challenging task.
The easiest method for acquiring children’s cooperation is to get to know them first. If you take them to a park and engage in conversation with them while you’re walking or playing, you’ll be astonished at how ready kids are to express their feelings.

First and foremost, we parents are the finest counsellors. So, allow the children to communicate their wants and needs without interfering, instead of taking a directive approach. Remember that each kid is different.
Let us not instill in our children the belief that attaining the first position is more important than attempting.
Teach kids that success isn’t just about where you are in the hierarchy; it’s about what you’re interested in and how hard you work!
The inability of our parents to comprehend us as children leads to aggression in children of all ages.
Let’s all take a little time to get to know our children and what they need from us. The more you talk to your children, the more organized they will become.
“Spare the rod and spoil the kid” is an age-old saying that we’ve all heard at a certain point.
In today’s society, I believe the best advice is to “spare a little time to understand your kid.”
As parents, all we need to do is give them our time, communicate, sympathize, and never compare!!!
Once we’ve accomplished all these tasks then definitely the kid’s behavior will completely change for the better.
“Nothing can be attained by force but everything can be achieved by love, understanding, and compassion,”
As parents, it’s important to remember the ABCs of parenting
A- ACCEPT CHILDREN AS THEY ARE
B- BELIEVE IN THEM, TO EXPRESS THEIR BEST BEHAVIOR
C – COMFORT THEM WITH THE TRUTH, NEVER WITH FALSEHOOD
This is the mantra to get your kids to cooperate and this will only take place if their emotional needs are satisfied.
Therefore, let us all awaken from the rat race mindset, let us choose to spare time for our little sweethearts to listen to what is in their hearts, and from there on handing them over to the educators who will guide them into the limelight.
