Parenting tips - Really works !!

Here are some unnbelievably simple parenting ideas that work.


1. Children need a minimum of eight  touches during a day to feel connected to a parent.


If they’re going through a particularly challenging time, it’s a minimum of 12 a day. This doesn’t have to be a big deal; it could be the straightening of a collar, a pat on the shoulder or a simple hug.


2. Each day, children need one meaningful eye-to-eye conversation with a parent.


It is especially important for babies to have that eye contact, but children of all ages need us to slow down and look them in the eyes.


3. There are nine minutes during the day that have the greatest impact on a child:


the first three minutes right after they wake up
the three minutes after they come home from school
the last three minutes of the day before they go to bed
We need to make those moments special and help our children feel loved.
These are simple, right? Nothing really earth-shattering here.


Try it.
1⃣ Whenever u feel like scolding or beating your child, take a deep breath, or count 1-10 and then act.
2⃣ Let's ask them to study their favorite subject on their own..
3⃣ Send them to one exam without studying at all..
4⃣ Remember what our kids are learning in 5th std is taught to 7th std abroad..
5⃣ Lets keep our kids out of unwanted competition.
6⃣ 80% of what kids are learning ,won't be useful to them in future..
7⃣ Our kids can really afford to do whatever they want to do in future .
8⃣ Higher degrees don't guaranty success and happiness..
9⃣ Not all the highly educated people do well professionally.
And not all who do well professionally are the happiest ones..
10 Kids are always in a party mood.. don't spoil their childhood. Support and let them be what they want to be.

And change the way we look at our kids and their future.

I wouldn't connect happiness of a child and thus of the parents with such simple rules. Making sure your kids grow up with love and confidence in their abilities is somethink all parents want. And giving them the means to achieve what they want to do in life is generally also what parents strive for. I still think it's important to have the best education a child can achieve even if it means learning. It's true that 80% of topics touched may not be relevant but a.) it's important that children know how to learn a topic and what approaches will help them and b.) a wide understanding of how the world moves and what makes it move will always be helpful.

And yes, a university diploma not necessarily provides a bucket full of happiness but it provides a better foundation to build on top.
