Respect: To scold the child, to shout at him, to hit him, to interrupt, to lie to the child are signs that he is not respected. The child who is not respected, refers to behavioral disorders. So mothers and fathers must learn to respect their children.
The child should be approached as an independent individual, given their word, taken their opinions, and respected.
Allocating time for the Child: It is necessary to take care of the child and to spare time for him / her every day. Even if the time spent with the child is small, the quality of the time is important, not the quantity. Spending an hour of quality time with the child will provide significant benefits to the child’s spiritual world.
In this time that will be allocated for the child, activities that the child will enjoy should be done with the child.
Encouragement: In order for the child to gain self-confidence, first of all, the parents should show the child that they trust him. The family and the environment should appreciate the child’s every effort and encourage the child. It is very important to encourage the child to see himself / herself as a valuable individual.
Encouraging means loving and accepting the child as he is and valuing him only for who he is.
Love: The most important way to ensure harmony in a child is to make him feel loved.
In order for the child to be confident, he must be sure that he is loved, and learn to love and be loved unconditionally.
