helpful on the topic of parenting and learned things that I had not previously considered. One
thing that really stood out for me was how every tip requires focus on how the child feels and
thinks. The way parents treat their children will directly impact their future. I think that in the
past and even into today, parents used to put a lot of emphasis on the parent rather than the child.
I do believe parents thought they were putting the child first, but most parenting techniques were
centered around what the parent wanted to do despite what the child needed or even wanted at
that moment. I liked this idea that the article talked about when the tips were focused on how the
child feels and thinks. I think that in order to make more productive members of society and
build self-confidence, it is important for children to feel heard, especially by their parents. Of
course I also agree that there is a fine line between being authoritative and responding warmly to
the child and being permissive or even neglectful. Good parenting is crucial for a child’s growth
and future success. The article also discussed that it is important for parents to create a safe and
loving environment that promotes emotional well-being and resilience. Children who grow up in
such an environment develop higher self-esteem and social skills. They also tend to be more
optimistic, have more empathy towards others, and have better situational awareness. Therefore,
parents should set their goal on giving their children the best head start in life. I hope to do this
with my children as my parents did this for me. Both of my parents were emotionally invested in
their relationship with me, so I saw the benefits of it firsthand by experiencing that type of love
myself. I was glad to see the article talk about creating more loving and safer environments for
children because I feel like the benefits are often overlooked. Good parenting also plays an
important role in supporting the mental development of children. A child can develop good
habits and a sense of control over their lives by being given a sense of discipline and routines.
This develops their time management skills so that they will be more productive in the future. To
help a child's independence and problem-solving skills, parenting should also contain a good mix
of flexibility and discipline. When parents let their kids experience difficulties and learn from
their errors, it helps kids comprehend consequences, remembers errors they made, and make
better decisions. When I was growing up my parents would always tell me to do certain things
but I never understood why. Now that I am older and more mature I have learned the same
lessons my parents were teaching me through my own personal experience. The plan I have for
my child is to create a nurturing and safe environment for my child. I will do this by paying close
attention to how my child feels and thinks. I will constantly push positive things on the child for
the best interest of their future. The company I keep around my child will be held to a minimum.
The child will also be on a very healthy diet and get constant exercise. Another thing I will do is
not be overprotective and give them freedom so they can figure out the things they like to do.
This will also allow them to make decisions on their own and learn the consequences of their
decisions.
In conclusion, I believe good parenting plays a critical role in shaping children's lives.
Creating a nurturing and secure environment that is full of positive discipline is essential.
Parents should strive to provide for their children with the support and encouragement they need
to benefit their future. Through open communication, parents can guide their children towards
successful opportunities and relationships. Good parenting is essential for a child’s emotional,
mental, and physical development, and without it, a child may struggle in both their personal and
professional lives. Therefore, we must understand the importance of good parenting, and take
positive action to ensure that our children have the best possible start in life.
