5 PRINCIPLES OF GOOD PARENTING

-

 These are the 5 principle of good parenting. They are as follow;

1. You cannot be too loving: "It is simply not possible to spoil a child with love," Steinberg writes. "What we often think of as the product of spoiling a child is never the result of showing a child too much love. It is usually the consequence of giving a child things in place of love.

2.  2. Be involved in your child's life: "Being an involved parent takes time and is hard work, and it often means rethinking and rearranging your priorities. It frequently means sacrificing what you want to do for what your child needs to do. Be there mentally as well as physically."

3. Adapt your parenting to fit your child: Keep pace with your child's development. Your child is growing up. Consider how age is affecting the child's behavior.

4. Establish and set rules: "If you don't manage your child's behavior when he is young, he will have a hard time learning how to manage himself when he is older and you aren't around. Any time of the day or night, you should always be able to answer these three questions: Where is my child? Who is with my child? What is my child doing? The rules your child has learned from you are going to shape the rules he applies to himself.

5. Avoid harsh discipline: Parents should never hit a child, under any circumstances, Steinberg says. "Children who are spanked, hit, or slapped are more prone to fighting with other children," he writes. "They are more likely to be bullies and more likely to use aggression to solve disputes with others."
