let’s be honest we all had parents or some kind of figure in our life that taught us like a parent… wether they were the best parents or the worst parent ever, i wanna know your idea if you were a parent what would you do?
Read book about parenting.
Try to give my kids less trauma then what I got- I think that is successful parenting!!
frrrr
Be merciful that's the first step to any parenting
i agree
giving them freedom but not too much freedom
let them do what they want and support them but still any parent should criticise their childrens actions if they are in wrong
i agree
Keeping them disciplined at a very young age (includes fixed sleeping hours, bedtime, minimal screen, etc..) being open with them, taking care of their diet, getting them into sports or any physical activity, providing a safe environment for them to share their feelings and thoughts, helping them understand their passions and what they want to do in life and supporting them at a very young age.
Overall ensuring that they have a healthy lifestyle, they’re happy while not expecting anything in return from them in the future.
yes!!!0
If the kid does not come and say us his/her concern and what troubles him/her. We should know that we have failed as a parent because the kid cannot even trust you to tell the story.- start of a terrible trauma!!
And another advice i could give is be a friend not a parent
I would let them explore the world and let them be free to be allowed to do what makes them happy and i would not argue infront of them
awe o love this
You would definitely miss out on your kid's growth because you'd be sleeping the entire time lol
You want them to be free so you can take time off!! I know you!!
I think they worded it the wrong way, i get where they’re coming from
Raise them in a way which makes them comfortable enough to tell me bout their problems or if something bad happens, I don't want them to be scared to tell me if something went wrong. Instead of beating the kids I'll make them sit down and explain what they did wrong and why is it wrong, also that actions have consequences. Teach them how to take care of themselves ( cooking, cleaning and other basic things) irrespective of gender.
You dont know me
I would not miss out on it
Oooo, okay!!
Was a joke miss.

Ohh,really??
Nice.
Definitely not like my current self.
💀
I don't think it's easy as a lot of people make it out to seem like. Kids do have a mind of their own. You could try your best to be a good parent. But if you try too much, you might be doing just the same thing as your parents.
I would try my best but not gonna lie, I would suck at it
I think that's a good call my man!!
Yope. I would give them some bit of hell too
Life isn't just going to go easy on them
This is reality
Yup, true that is required!!
Yeah. It's okay to be friendly with your kids but don't be friends with them
Lol, that shit doesn't work out in the way people think it's
A friend Nd a parent are too different things
Ya I too think, they should look upto you with respect!!, authority!!
Don't treat parents like their other joker friends!!
Well, when you start being a friend. That line gets blurred
It only shows up one day when the kid start treating you on the same grounds as a friend
Yeah children start to talk back lol!! I don't like that
Exactly 💯
that's the least of the issues
And we maybe like oh my kid will tell me everything because I'm free with them
I'm free with my mum but I ain't letting her know everything

Such is life
And what you may think it's okay and good for your kid. You are hundred percent sure of that, but the kid thinks other wise and would call that as you been wicked lol
Kids are funny though
Truly haha!!
With everyone we love them but we can only say certain things to certain people lol!!
For real
An example is if your dad says you should read. You would think that's him just forcing too much on yah till it's result time
You don't want them to be told how to do it or what to do
I think they should be told

Well, I guess you would wait until they make a big mistake that one cannot learn from
I'm getting your point
Well they will not know naturally, and if they associate with bad people they are gone lol!!
I think they should be taught to think, analyze and understand situations and facts- they can build a strong moral code that decides what is right or wrong then!!
You think telling them limits their own creativity Nd reasoning
There is time for them to be able to do things on their own
Right
All kids do
Well, that's up to your future kid
We all gonna be different kinds of parents

Well that depends on different circumstance you faced, your influence,how you reacted, etc
I tell me kid. Go do that Nd this is how to do.
Then watch him do
Or he watch me do it
You can't just expect them to gain knowledge out of nothingness
Okay guys here me out!!
If kid asks you why is the grass green or why is the sky blue what do you answer??
Science
The sky is blue due to light reflection
Grass is green due to chlorophyll
Then explain what those terms means
Ohh, okk!!
oop

bruh
Discipline your child when needed, teach them important habits and goals and overall things that life won't tell them
My parents were fantastic
The only issue I had was that they babied the fuck out of my brother which stunted his growth basically he’s so wickedly immature
Hi
Hellooo
Is anyone here?
Can anyone hear me???
Hellooooooo
Hey!! Doing good my man??
Lol!! He must use being younger against you haha
