These five things parents do, their children never forget
All parents want to have wonderful children. That of children they are affable and of adults they behave as responsible and useful people for society. However, much more effort is put into thinking that morning than in laying the foundations during the present on which we walk.
Some parents think that when children are young they should just obey and that is what parenting is all about.
In this way, some parental attitudes leave a mark forever: sometimes positive, sometimes negative, but most of the time profound. These are 5 of those behaviors that children rarely forget.
Mistreatment
No relationship is perfect, much less one as intense as that of parents with their children. There will always be moments of contradiction or conflict and that is perfectly normal. What changes is the way to overcome these difficulties and, unfortunately, many parents mistakenly assume that abuse is a tool to educate.
LACK OF ATTENTION
Children need to feel the constant love and care of their parents. That attention is measured by the time they can spend for their parents. If we do not spend time with them or only the so-called “quality time” our children will feel neglected. They need us to share time every day with them.
PARENT PROTECTION
The fear they felt on that stormy day in summer or the fear of the dark at night are not often forgotten by children. Children always trust parents for a sense of security. When parents are the ones causing fear in their children, they feel unprotected.
A UNITED FAMILY
Adults who have enjoyed a close family during childhood never forget it. When parents put family above everything else, they always remember the values they have been taught. Family meals, games with siblings, or unconditional support are remembered throughout life. They even dream of being able to start a family in the future.
TREATMENT TO THE OTHER PARENT
The relationship between parents is the pattern from which the child departs to forge an attitude towards couple relationships. It is very likely that, consciously or unconsciously, as an adult, you will repeat with your partner what you saw at home between your parents. Before, you will probably repeat it with the people you love.
