To bring up a Child
Ther is not any ready-made recipe for good raising a child. As we have different personalities of our children, so each individual unit needs an adequate educational strategy. In addition to that nowadays parents are trying to keep up with the economic and mental problems of society which include so busy lifestyles and the growing pressure created by the progress that raising the child is a real challenge.
Looking at this issue, we have a division into the three types of child-rearing: democratic, autocratic and liberal in which none of them guarantees 100% success - so what is the secret, hmm...?!
Accepting the fact of upbringing is not a one-off attempt to impact on the child, but it must be a conscious, intentional and orderly action of the parents, aimed at achieving a relatively permanent change in the personality development of the child, both in the sphere of intellectual, emotional, social, cultural, physical, moral and spiritual, considering also the contribution of the intermediate people (teachers, coaches, friends, distant relatives and peers) on the whole process and the innate possibilities of the child the answer can only be one - BALANCE!!! Why?
Here's the evidence! Let's look one of the most difficult topics "corporal punishment". The Daily Express interviewed Professor Richard Lynn (professor of psychology at the University of Coleraine) and his opinion is: "The effectiveness of smack is that it creates fear - and fear acts as deterrent to further misbehavior". He also notes that from when parents have limited this method the criminality has significantly grown.
Against that opinion, Penelope Leach ( expert on child development) expressed: "Psychical punishments do neither. They cannot help in the development of self-discipline because they only tell children that they have done wrong. They neither describe the crime nor suggest the preferable alternative". Moreover, she added that "children who are hit often misunderstand the cause of the punishment and relate only to the last event. In the longer term, physical punishment actually works against children's development of socialized self-control because it denies them a parental model for it".
Briefly, summing up raising children is not an easy task, as many parents and children as many ideas of preparing children into adulthood. View and opinions are also divided among psychologists and scientists. In my own opinion is that all that is in excess or too little has consequences even parental love so important is to love much but sensible and reasonable - keep balance, do our best to help children be independent and happy in the future.
Think deeply , and let me know haw you like my text? Wat is your opinion right and why?
