Parents are role models for their children, regardless of age. They play an irreplaceable part in their child’s life .Parents teach their children in many ways, such as how to read, writ, sing, and even dance.Parents involvement to child’s life is very vital to help them mature from a baby to an adult.
Parents always pay attention to their child’s interest and help him explore new and different things. Parents also set time to review the material that kids learn in class at home to help them better understand areas they may need help with. Reading together with the kid will help them further develop a hobby of reading.
Parents are always a part of child’s everyday experience. To make a child open up and tell what they like and how they feel about certain things, parents act as a child’s friend. They set time for studying and extra –curricular activities.
“We want to keep children in charge of their learning and become responsible for it”
“We want them to be responsible for their successes and failures, from this parents should show them how engaging learning is , and that the motivations for learning should be the child’s intrinsic interests , not an external reward.”
Parents should encourage a child to learn something new everyday, to develop their curiosity for new things. Learning together to assist kids in becoming more comfortable and confident about in making mistakes and better prepares them to fix the mistakes.
To show interest in his/her activities and reinforce the importance of proper education, parents should actively participate in their child’s education at home and in school.
Parents should develop a positive attitude towards health, like, healthy eating habits. Teaching a child at early age is very important to be able to lessen the bad habits that will be learned from the others.
Parents role is extraordinary, unique and non-stop. If parents can give their lives to their children, they will surely do it without hesitation. Why? Because they love their children more than anything in this world!
