Some Unwritten Rules of Being a Parent

How many of your feel that being a parent is hard? Well, this is one of the toughest jobs in the world and yet a job of great responsibility. Many parents have issues that their kids do not listen to them. Well, sorry but it’s the fault of the parents because, the kind of upbringing you offer them, the kids would behave in the same manner.

So here I have compiled some unsaid and unwritten rules of being a parent that you must follow to get better results with the kids:

• First of all, being tough with your kids is very important. It does not mean caning your kids every time they do something wrong. However, you need to show your disapproval when they do something wrong and never support anything wrong. Punishing them or grounding them is helpful when you do it in a manner that helps your kids.
• As a parent, it is very necessary to know the kind of friends your kids have and what they do when they get together. Do not forget to have the contact details of your kids’ friends and their family members. This could help you a lot in an emergency.
• Similarly, always stay in touch with all the teachers of your kids. Teachers stay with kids all the time and they can tell you better about your kids. Also, never criticize your kids’ teachers anywhere in front of your kids and never blame anything on teachers. If your kid is facing any issue with the teacher, talk it out politely in absence of your kids.
• Parents complain about their kids stuck to the digital devices all the time and how finicky their kids are in eating food. These are the same parents who keep their smartphones in their hands even while eating their meals. Well, kids do not learn anything from out of their home. Whatever they see their parents doing, they learn it quickly. To help your kids read a book instead of operating digital devices, you need to show it to them instead of commanding.

These are some of the unwritten rules about being a parent that is a must to follow. Remember, kids learn everything from what they see around them. So as a parent, it is your liability to see what surrounds your kids and ensure that it is healthy enough.
