All the blessings one has in life culminates in being the ‘right kinda parent’ in enabling his/her child to become what best he/she could. As always said, no child is born good or bad, but is made one through the parenting received and of course coupled with several other factors. Nevertheless, parenting has its significant, direct, proportionate and justifiable boomeranging impact on grooming a child’s personality.
Each one of us have great dreams for our child to create a legacy and we keep tossing our hardest effort in very many ways to make them capacious. A Self-Confession before we move on will add value to this read.
1. Were/are you giving the time that your child needed/needs in every form and time?
2. Do you see your child too dependent on you for everything?
3. Do you feel that your child is out of your control in many ways?
4. Are you empathizing with your child’s needs as the parent or the child in you?
Your answers could be ‘yes’ or ‘no’ or ‘halfway’ too. Whichever the case be, it’s important that your reflection takes your parenting style to the next level. Now, having known your ownself as a parent and your child well, take a closer look at the following framework to analyze what kinda parent you are and what kinda child have you been moulding!
