Read More...There are more symptoms of being nervous like a habit of nail biting, when the child does not want to go to the school or is least interested in the activities once he enjoyed a lot. Some children about keep complaining and cribbing about small things. It is our duty to help our child and understand them that they are not doing anything purposely. Relaxing the child is the first thing which every parent should do and talk everything positive to the child so that the child does not have any kind of negative influence on him or her. -

To read the related article, click here. Read More...The most important thing according to me which should be taught by the parents is that the children should understand the importance of feelings and expressing it. This way you can start teaching the emotional quotient to your child. You can describe and show him your feelings so that he understands the meaning and also understand how to classify feelings in different ways. You can also test your child’s IQ there are several centres where these IQ tests are taken and from the score you can understand how much you need to work on your child. -

For what does your child argue the most? How do you deal with your child’s arguing? Do you agree that arguments can be healthy for both parents and kids?
To read the related article, click here. Read More...Hello, according to me parents should adopt a middle of the road approach which is not to strict not too lenient. It is necessary that children learn to respect their parents and at the same time parents should also be respecting their children’s opinion, thoughts and feelings. You can try to keep calm when you children have argumentative behaviour and shouting and scolding them can make the situation worse and also sometimes take the children away from you. Forcing the children to do what you want and as you want can never work and put you and your children in adversarial position. -

To read the related article, click here. Read More...I completely agree with you we parents should support our child so that he strives hard and achieves all the success which he deserves. It is also necessary that children study regularly and do their homework also on regular basis. Help the kids to finish their homework, take out time from your work schedule. When you help them they will also feel better and excited to do their homework along with you. Let them do their homework on their own and you can accompany them by just sitting along with them. Make sure that they complete their task regularly and do not have pending homework. -

I understand that preschoolers lie but when school goers lie, this means a matter of concern. They do it knowingly and being aware of the consequences. My daughter just keeps on telling tales that she thinks we will believe. How can I stop her behavior? Read More...Parents and other family members can make the child believe that it is absolutely safe to tell the truth in their family by their unconditional love. Encourage them to accept their mistake and make them believe that accepting their mistakes is a right thing and an opportunity to learn things from the mistakes they make. Share your experiences and examples when it was difficult for you to tell the truth but you said it anyways without thinking about the consequences. Appreciate your child for being honest and telling the truth whenever he does, this will definitely boost his self-confidence and self-respect. -

We as parents should be knowing all the things of our child. Take an initiative and get involved in his day to day activities.

All these questions can give you a rough outlook of his life.
