This is very challenging for every parent to opt for appropriate parenting styles.
The activity of bringing up a child is called Parenting. And obviously, the people who do it, are called parents. Being a parent is not necessarily to become a father or a mother. Even he or she can be a guardian or a single father or a single mother.
Some call parenting, a very challenging task but it can be so easy and simple by following certain things. Parenting is full of responsibility, love, affection, and struggle too at a point in time.
Certainly, we have the happy moments, the distressed moments, the memorable times and more often, the times we just want to forget. On the basis of certain things we can not judge like who is a GOOD PARENT and who is a BAD PARENT.
There is not any concept like “good” and the “bad” one. whosoever be the parent, whether both mother and father or a single mother or a single father always try to raise their children with their full energy, full capabilities. We all do follow all the things so that we can make our children good, well-behaved citizens.
Whatever is our experience, our responsibilities as parents do not change. No parent is pretty perfect in carrying out all the responsibilities, but all of us strive to be good.
What am I seeing these days is everyone talks about HOW TO BE A GOOD PARENT; TIPS TO BECOME A GOOD PARENT, different PARENTING STYLES, etc. And certainly, while scrolling the internet, we surely read all the stuff very very carefully to become a good parent, like only those are the keys to become a good parent. Do we consider ourselves a bad parent…!!!
No……….definitely No…….But the reason behind giving our meaningful time for reading such tips is that we always try to become more and more admirable parents. We blindly follow all those things that are being mentioned by some other people. Following up to some extent is good but before following, we must also consider what our children expect from us. Exactly what is demanding for our children’s growth and understanding?
Every child is different on the basis of their thinking pattern, their nature, body type, food habits, etc. By analyzing all the factors we should make the decision about which parenting style will be better for them.
For children at first instance, their parents are their Role-model. What we can say about good parenting is when a parent creates a stable, nurturing home environment and plays an active part in a child’s life.
Good parenting indicates accepting the responsibility for the total development of the child, providing them moral support, spiritual guidance, and do open communication with them. Responsible parents instill good values, set limits, and positively influence a child’s behavior.
