Children deserve your quality time! |
The sight of a mother brings tears of joy to the eyes of a baby. He is elated to see his mother and looks forward to staying around her all the time. In the same way, the loving hug of the father makes the child feel secure and safe. He needs both the parents to feel complete. The presence of both parents boosts the confidence and enthusiasm of the child.
Impact of Quality Time of Parents
Imagine a young kid who is about to perform on the stage. His eyes search for his parents. The moment he traces them his eyes sparkle and he is motivated to do better. But the absence of parents disheartens the child and affects his self-esteem. Lack of enough time or excessive monitoring both hampers the child's development.
The kids who get the proper attention of their parents grow up as more confident and emotionally secure adults. While those who do not get sufficient time and attention lack a zest for life. But that does not mean one should leave all the work and other priorities of life behind. A child does not require 24 hours of attention. All he or she requires is the quality time of parents.
Take time out to listen to him or her. A good conversation time or playtime fills happiness in the atmosphere.
You must have heard that a family that eats together stays together. Share at least one meal time with your son or daughter. A light-hearted talk at the dinner table helps release stress levels and induces a cheerful mood among the family members.
Reading a story together at bedtime is yet another way to strengthen the parent-child bonding.
Remember to fulfill your promises. Avoid making promises which you cannot fulfill at all. So if you have promised a visit to the zoo at the weekend then try to make it possible. The times spent together will last long in the memory of the child and will bring the latter closer to the parents.
In case of any unforeseen circumstance, assure the child that the promise will be fulfilled soon.
The child expects special treatment from his or her parents. He or she deserves it too but in an optimum proportion. The purpose is to make him or her bloom with delight.
Therefore, make sure that you devote quality time to your child!
