MOV Parent: Teaching children confidence and good character
Trending
Another month went by, and today this page is devoted to parents and children because we call it the parent page, and it is only published once a month.
And you know what that means: I have a whole month to think about it, so I will start today with some lessons that we can teach our children and build some confidence and good character in them, and it's so important.
And really, you don't have to be a parent to do that. Any adult can teach a younger child good manners that they don't always get elsewhere.
So let's start:
If you're thankful for something, make sure you show it.
If you're confused, don't hesitate to ask questions.
If you're stuck and you need help, ask someone.
If you did something and hurt someone, take responsibility.
If you're wrong or something, acknowledge it.
If you make a mistake, that's okay, but go ahead and fix it afterwards.
If you love someone, tell them.
If you fall, try to get up and start again.
If you see something wrong, try again and make it right.
We know that children need guidance, so why don't we teach them to pray and hopefully they will get an answer. Here are some ideas that we can give to a child when they start praying for guidance.
Pray:
When I'm afraid, remind me that you're always with me.
When I face decisions? Help me to hear your voice above all else.
When I don't know which way to go, lead me with your wisdom.
When my path is unclear, light my way with your truth.
Guide my steps, save my heart, and lead me to the life you have planned for me.
And at the end, you can tell them to say thank you for never leaving me and for being my constant guide. A few things like that will help the child start praying every day.
I think it's very important that kids have good friends to share happy and sad occasions, and to even get advice from friends, with one exception: if they have good friends and they get good advice, but as adults we can teach them the meaning of a good and true friend.
Good friends at times are hard to find. Friends are very important to have in life.
Life may change people may come and go and distance may sometimes keep people apart but true friendship doesn't disappear with time.
And even if people don't talk every day once you find a good friend, you know you got someone who genuinely cares about you and no matter where life takes you always be grateful that you got to call someone a true friend because you remember the good memories you have ,that you share countless laughs Unforgettable memories and moments the only you and that person understands and truly you can say that no matter how far life takes you will be grateful that your paths crossed.
And again true friends become the most important people in your life.
One more thing I like to mention to you and you can mention it to your children or grandchildren or any child that you think may listen because let's face it Children have to make a lot of decisions in their lives although we don't think so at times. children need to have a clear mind and tell them at times we spent a lot of time thinking about our future( their future), our responsibilities, our goals and what other people expect from us but sometimes in the process of becoming successful, we forget that a peaceful and healthy mindset is also important so if we take a little time to rest clearly, enjoy simple moments and stay away from unnecessary negativity does not mean you are wasting time. It means you're giving yourself the energy to continue moving forward. You cannot control everything that happens around you, but you can learn how to respond to it. But protect your peace, stay positive and give yourself the same patience that you give to others.
By next month, I will have more ideas to write about children and their needs.
Till then, enjoy the beautiful days because I hear we're going to have a bad winter this year and I hope they're wrong.
But what did we say? Stay positive? Lol
Till next month
