Although each child’s attachment to their parents differs, kids’ attitudes towards their father are mostly the same. Everyone portrays fathers as someone who doesn’t know how to express their love. What do you think about your father?
Every father is anxious about the birth of their child. They are careful as the baby grows forward without faltering in any situation. Kids and families misunderstand the attitudes and interactions of fathers. Remember these if you are a father. Don’t promise or give your children more than what you can, even if there are many shortcomings in their expectations. You make decisions at your home, not someone external, and train your children to make decisions at a younger age. Allow them to start making small decisions regularly. Your kids will be better off making big decisions. Older children need to take responsibility for the day-to-day affairs at home. Once the children are old enough, you should do the household chores with them earlier is better.
Every child has different personalities and talents. They need help only when they are suffering from weakness. Do not punish children when they make mistakes unintentionally or because of their cognitive difficulties. Many kids forget things faster or do not understand and respond maturely. Cognitive deficiency of a child may lead to unexpected responses and loss of interest. Explain to them the correct procedure as many times as needed without hesitation. Remember, home is a university, and you are an experienced trainer. You can develop the cognitive capacity of your kids very well by repeating simple exercises for a long time. When you invest good seeds in the kids, they will produce valuable fruits.
Educate your kids that your life is also precious. Your well-being, life goals, desires, and preferences are also important. When you live for the children, you should not lose your dreams. Loving children does not mean letting them do whatever they want and doing everything on their behalf. Train them to perform their responsibilities and develop the necessary skills. Teach them to live with what they have rather than spending or feeling defeated. Train the kids in the value of time, money, relationships, health, virtues, priorities, support, and education. Forming the character and learning how to learn should be prioritized over higher education and the quality of life over money. If you train your children this way, you will experience them as the olive saplings around the table.
Most fathers would agree that you should live as a father to understand the depth of their love for kids.
