KIDS AND WORKING MOTHERS # MANNERS

Yiepsie,

Your child is your wealth and pride. So you must teach him manners and it should be started at an early age.

Teach him about right and wrong. Put efforts to make your child a good person instead of a successful one. Any child can be successful but only a well-taught and well-mannered child will become a good person.

Sometimes a child's tender age and innocence do not allow him to listen to his parents. Thus parents must teach him mannerism by putting their all efforts.

I believe that while dealing with children one parent should be strict and the other should be lenient or they can take turns in becoming strict and lenient. If both parents are strict then it will lead to fear, rebellion, anger, depression. If both parents are lenient then your child will become underachiever, will lack confidence during tough times and overprotectiveness will become their weakness.

These days the scenario is that parents pamper their child a lot. They do not hurt his emotions. This is wrong, as the early, your child gets hurt emotionally early he will be ready for the world. Start telling him the truths of life at a young age.


Teach etiquettes to your child politely with a cool mind. Give him examples of great and well-known people. But never compare your child with others, not even with siblings. Teach him how to be polite, respectful, how to eat, how and when to say sorry and thank you, how to share, etc.Teach them not to argue, not to be obsessive, arrogant, mean, jealous, do not misbehave, etc.

Instead of teaching and saying things to a child, parents should set an example by practicing good manners as I believe that

Actions speak louder than words.
