Who says that having children and educating them is an easy task, it is definitely not doing the right thing !! Raising a child has always been a difficult task and for the brave since the world is the world and we can affirm this with even more certainty in the present times. Unfortunately, children are not born with a manual and much less there is a primer for parents to follow on how to raise a child. But one thing that all parents know is to dedicate yourself and do your best with all your heart.
And even with so much dedication, zeal and worry, it is inevitable at a stage in life that dads and moms don’t stop to think and wonder if they are making mistakes . Do not feel privileged to charge yourself too much and feel that you are doing little for your children, this is a feeling of everyone who had the choice to be a real parent. Some points of education must be provided with some care, since that old phrase of “that everything that is too much is not good” fits perfectly !! Excesses are never healthy for a child’s education and development.
Raising a child and generating responsible, intelligent and good self-esteem children is a complicated task that requires daily doses of education and, believe me, the main key word of this difficult journey is the word NO . Setting boundaries, teaching right and wrong and that there is adequate time for all things are the first steps for a child to grow up confident and without excesses. Some parents, afraid of the authority over their children and with the image they will have of them in their growth, end up giving up teaching or showing what they think is correct besides teaching a necessary and healthy authority for their development.
Being a parent who says yes to all your child’s wishes does not mean being a good parent! This will deprive the healthy development of your children who will be stuck with intolerance, insecurity and, on top of that, will not be able to deal with situations where they do not get what they want. For this reason, all specialists in early childhood education affirm that it is better to educate and say no in the home with love , than to let and allow the world to do without the same precious feeling and to let them learn very hard that life is not. the way they’ve learned throughout their life.
Main Points to Educate a Child
There are no rules for a good education, but there are points that must be respected and followed to focus on a good education for children. Pointed out as the pillars of good education, psychologists, pedagogues and all specialists in early childhood education have the same vision and point out the same focuses.
Don’t Lie – Don’t make promises that won’t be kept, especially when you’re doing something you don’t approve of. The lie, over time, becomes something uncomfortable since the little one will question the truth of the things you say, since you do not fulfill them. Talking will always be the best way out and showing the mistake made in order to fix it or resolve the situation.
Do not disallow the order of the father or mother – Never go over an order from your partner, whatever it may be. If the punishment was given, it must be maintained and under no circumstances discussed about what happened in front of the children. This will cause the authority to be divided or even withdrawn over the child. The best way to resolve is to talk to your partner alone and the solution taken in partnership.
Put rules and don’t break them – Rules and limits are extremely healthy points for early childhood education. Children who grow up knowing what they can and cannot do, knowing their limits, develop in a healthy way to face adolescence and adulthood without so many worries and dilemmas. The good example of parents is the best class children have. Thus, if the father and mother follow good examples, the child’s daily life will run even more smoothly.
Give autonomy- Teaching children to do their daily chores and take care of their things helps in the autonomy of children, who will become more independent and smart. They learn to deal with the responsibilities and consequences of their actions.
To educate a child it takes a lot of love, a lot of dedication and being 100% connected to them. Correcting them when they get it wrong, talking about how to improve, and praising them when they get things right are healthy ways to lead a good education. Don’t be responsible for their mistakes, especially when they are bigger, and don’t even punish yourself when an error is detected, trying to solve it so that the error doesn’t happen again is better than blaming yourself.

My name is Dr. Alexis Hart I am 38 years old, I am the mother of 3 beautiful children! Different ages, different phases 16 years, 12 years and 7 years. In love with motherhood since always, I found it difficult to make my dreams come true, and also some more after I was already a mother.
Since I imagined myself as a mother, in my thoughts everything seemed to be much easier and simpler than it really was, I expected to get pregnant as soon as I wished, but it wasn’t that simple. The first pregnancy was smooth, but my daughter’s birth was very troubled. Joana was born in 2002 with a weight of 2930kg and 45cm, from a very peaceful cesarean delivery but she had already been born with congenital pneumonia due to a broken bag not treated with antibiotics even before delivery.
