It is our responsibility as a Parent to Nurture and develop the ‘ Original Mind ‘ of our children.
Our children are taught from the very young age to ‘fit in’ . We discourage them from developing their power of reasoning and realisation.
Most parents encourage their children by comparing them to someone.
We don’t want them to fail, fall or make mistakes . We shield them right from when they are born.
The first 7 years is the best time to develop the ‘Original Mind ‘.
- Nourish them , nurture them and dont stress their mind with too much to make them genius.
- Let them learn at their own pace.
- Teach them how to identify and handle strong emotions .
- Let them get bored for a while and see them inventing something new to manage their boredom.
- Let your children see how you solve problems at home , thats going to teach them how to handle crisis .
- Let them interact with different people .
- Let them explore different places .
- Give them ample space to explore their creativity.
- Introduce them to all forms of art and music .
- Confining them to the four walls and limiting their reach can cause harm and distress to their minds as they grow up .
Children who are taught to resort to technology from day 1 as distraction face difficulties managing their emotions.
Parents must understand that children need to be equipped more than Shielded.
Also , every child is different .
Trust his growth process and trust yourself for doing the best.
Like every child is unique , so is every parent and their parenting style .
HAPPY PARENTING !
