PARENTS DEALING WITH TODDLERS

I must agree with some parents that dealing with your young child could cause headaches. There is a transformation from normalcy to abnormality when dealing with our tots. At that stage of life, the children can seem to possess super-normal abilities and would crave to know everything. I agree that the actions of toddlers without the right grounding from parents can cause insanity.
Being a father of three now, I have acquired a great deal of experience I must tell you. Also, my association with friends and colleagues that have been recently blessed with kids and automatically have become parents has compelled me to give out useful advice on parenting your young child.
Toddlers are wonderful when it comes to tantrums and every parent must be inspired to make sure that their toddler does not have a frustrating experience. Tantrums from toddlers would rise because they are unable to move quickly and successfully communicate. Showing love, interest, admiration, support and adopting a platform for repetitive activity are ways I believe will work for parents dealing with toddlers.
Hugging, kissing, praising and giving attention to your child are some ways to show love. This will also allow the child to tag along rules that are set. However, parents should not adopt setting rules in every situation to get their toddlers to behave how they want. There must be room for the child to grow without restraints at every step. Parents must also understand that growing children will display certain personality traits that are hereditary or well-read. Respect your child’s growth and unique character, he or she can never be like any other child or even totally like you. Do not compare your child to another. Establish confidence in your child; do not concentrate on certain features that are unconstructive. Build your child’s strengths but also note weaknesses.
Safety is also crucial for your toddlers, as much as they would like to explore, ensure that rules set allow them to be conscious of their safety. Parents are also advised to get rid of any thing that may be tempting and that could result in unsafe situations for their toddlers. Parents should set a good example for their children. They should be positive examples by living even within the rules that they have set, remember that children also learn by watching. Introduce penalties when the rules are broken and I do not mean beating the child.
My friends, I am sure that God is already making your family the best and equipping you with the wisdom to deal with your toddler. Let us ensure that the foundation of the destinies of our children especially at this tot stage will not be defective. Our young children will grow to be great constructive individuals and models to generations. As a parent you will never know lack and your needs will be supplied accordingly.
