  • How to Raise Kids. Some parents can’t stop worrying that they’re gonna mess it up or that their kid’s gonna have it tough. According to some statistics, though, most parents are confident in their skills. However, parents often teach their kids the wrong lessons that influence them in the worst way. We’ve checked with the best psychologists to come up with a list of 8 bad lessons a lot of parents unknowingly teach their kids. We’ve also provided some healthy alternatives that’ll help you raise your kids to become strong, confident, and self-sufficient adults.

    SUMMARY
    -Parents should teach their kids to talk openly about unfair or difficult situations and be patient if some of the stories they tell don’t really seem like a big deal through the eyes of an adult.
    -Encourage your child to express their feelings in a safe way.
    -A child should not have to sacrifice their own interests and goals to please others, and they shouldn’t let anyone force them to do something they don’t want to do.
    -Tell your child to work hard to gain knowledge, but don’t wrap themselves up in good grades.
    -Financially responsible parents make great role models for their children, who learn the value of money and use it as a tool, not as entertainment.
    -Honest mistakes don’t need to be punished. If your child gets a bad grade or flunks a test, that might mean they just need help with a tough subject.
    -Many psychologists claim that children won’t learn to rely on themselves if their parents don’t give them some alone time. Provide them with toys, books, and other activities, but let your child choose how to entertain themselves.
    -Encourage your children to share their toys while instilling in them a sense of fairness. If another child wants to borrow the ball they’re playing with, it’s reasonable for the kids to play with that ball together.

    - Never let me get away with a lot of things
    - Treated me different from my younger siblings
    - Made me help my siblings more just because I was taller than them
    - Never allowed privacy
    - Made me feel like I was never the way they wanted me to be

    • @readdescription4132
      @readdescription4132 8 месяцев назад

      For real. Sometimes parents expect the big siblings to be perfect when they’re just human themselves. There have been moments when my older sister was accused too much for how we acted (she’s the oldest) and being a middle child I would sometimes get too much blame about the example I was setting for my little sister. Though my parents have been fair to me on the whole.

    I think one thing parents shouldn’t do is force their children to hug or kiss people they don’t want to. They should be respectful, polite to them, but to teach consent at an early age is what I think should be done in this little way.

    • @kathleenmuchka2559
      @kathleenmuchka2559 6 лет назад +15

      Excellent thought. You are so right. There may be good reason they don't want physical contact. Never be afraid to ask your child, "Does it make you uncomfortable to hug Aunt Greta?" Give them time. They will open up.
      Also, children should be made known that it is their body and no one is allowed to touch them unless they are comfortable with the situation.

    This video gave me anxiety. I remember a few of those bad lessons my parents used, especially when my dad would tell me and my brother that we weren't allowed to be mad at them cause we were the kids. And now I'm a parent. I started crying earlier because I snapped at my daughter for something that wasn't even that bad. Of course I hugged her tight and apologized for it. But it is definitely tough trying to raise them right, I don't really know how to do everything the right way.

      I commend you for apologizing to your daughter for being angry with her. I wish my parents had done that for me when growing up. It sounds like you're a loving, responsible parent who is just trying to do the right thing by your children. And that is truly awesome! Not a lot of parents these days own up to and admit that they make mistakes. We are all human, we are far from perfect and we will all make mistakes at one point or another. Letting your kids know that we're all human is the first, huge step in helping them to become confident and responsible adults one day. I truly wish more parents were like that! Just know that you're doing the best possible job you can. Parenting is far from easy. There's no manual or easy button, although I know all parents wish there was, lol! All you can do is your best, and when you do your best, that IS good enough! 🤗😊

Whilst they were here the woman staying at ours literally told my 11 year cousin to move OFF the sofa so she can have that seat (she's not disabled or old). & I just looked at her & just said that he had just as much of a right to sit there as she does & that if she wanted a chair to sit on she'll have to get another chair by the table. I'm sick of people treating kids like they can just order them around for their own benefit.

    Great video!, I suggest to add that the original approaches are the ones that have been passed on throughout the years. Thankfully, we’re at a time where they may no longer be relevant thanks to our study and understanding of behavioral psychology. Sharing the information is great, but incomplete without an analysis of where the prior way stems from, in doing so people being informed won’t grow grudges because they can’t comprehend “why” their parents disciplined them this way.

      For the most part I agree that sending a child to bed hungry is not a suitable punishment, but I do believe in one exception, being when the child is being a picky eater. In this case it is less of a punishment and more of a natural consequence. In this case, it is entirely on the child whether or not they go to bed hungry. If they truly don't want to eat what is in front of them, they don't have to eat it, but they'll have deal with being hungry. At any point they can choose to eat what they've been given, but they won't be offered anything else until the next scheduled meal time. I'm not a parent, but I have been a nanny and the tactic works. If a 3 year old refuses to finish her lunch but then asks for a snack an hour later, I presented her with what remained of her lunch, which I would have saved in the fridge. I think a major bad lesson is teaching kids that if they won't eat their broccoli they will be rewarded with mac'n'cheese.

    I identify a lot with #2. When I was little, I was constantly yelled at by adults at home and school whenever I began tearing up, them saying I was acting like a baby or spoiled brat, or that I had only myself to blame for my problems. This caused me to forcefully plug up my tear ducts, and also led me in later years to make fun of other kids in school who were crying, which obviously didn't turn out for the best. Only recently did I start to accept that sadness and crying is a natural human emotion, not just for babies.

    I'm just terrified by parents who just let their kids stay on the phone at the age of 2. Makes me cringe.

      I dont see it as bad. They are the generation that will grow up with vast amounts of high tech which will be used in education and in the workplace. Thats actually good that they learn that at an early age.

    With the first one: I was taught that it's only wrong if it doesn't hurt anyone. So for example, snitching that someone ate a gummy bear off the ground is wrong, but saying that someone hit you is not wrong. I like that and I don't understand why that would be wrong.

    Just found out I’m expecting and it’s so interesting seeing how parents forget they were once children. It’s possible to heal from toxic parents but why put your children through that? You should always want better for your child than what you had and for them to succeed in different ways. Being able to express emotions is one of my biggest things I want to instill into my baby, and also to not people please

    One time my sister came to my parents saying that she was bored, and they said she was spoiled. Even I was offended. They give her all of these electronics, and then they claim she’s spoiled. Um, who’s doing the spoiling?

    1:47 this is so true. I am 12, and few weeks ago I cried at school in front of all my classmates and my substitute teacher, because a student seated in front of me(who is my friend who likes teasing) I was writing something personal in my diary and she took it away from me and started reading it loudly. I felt overwhelmed at that moment and bursted out in tears. But none of my family members know about it. I feared that I will be a scolded that I am weak.But if I tell them about this, they will take it lightly.
