Upbringing Children - ABC of Upbringing

By Arifa Hudda

Accept your child the way he is.

Build on the talents of your child, rather than criticizing his defects.

Conceal the faults and mistakes of your child from others.

Don't degrade your child for his shortcomings, for every one of us has some.

Encourage your child to pursue his goals.

Forbearance and patience must be shown in all situations.

Give your child the understanding and support that he needs.

Help your child when he comes across a difficulty or a dead end.

Inquire about the sorrows and unhappiness of your child.

Justice must be observed between all of your children

Keep the channel of communication open with your child at all times.

Lend an ear to your child in times of distress.

Moral support towards your child is very important.

Never lie to your child about anything, or make false promises.

Obliging the child to do things exactly the way we want them done will turn them away from you.

Praise the child only to the extent of his deed (do not over-exaggerate).

Quietly and calmly speak to your child, do not raise your voice.

Respect your child, for he too is a human being.

Show your child how things are to be done, rather than expect them to know.

Teach your child manners and etiquette with your actions, rather than your words.

Upbringing your child in the proper way will make a brighter future for all.

Vows and promises made to the child must be kept.

Warm, loving words said to the child will have more of an affect than harsh ones.

EXamine the faults in yourself and improve them, rather than condemning the child for the same things.

Yelling at children will make them yell back at you.

Zeal and eagerness of your child, especially in regards to his talents should be encouraged.
