Raising a child, whether you are a Mum, Dad or carer is one of the most rewarding and important jobs you can do. Supporting your child through their developmental years brings amazing rewards as well as challenges.
Children enrich our lives in so many different ways. Every child is unique and there is no such thing as a ‘one size fits all’ style of parenting. Parents need to understand and respond to their child’s unique personality, strengths and needs.
Children are not born knowing what is acceptable and what is not acceptable behaviour. Young children don’t have the ability to link their feelings, thoughts and behaviour in the same way adults do. Children learn to manage their emotions and their behaviour as they develop. As they grow, they learn acceptable ways to respond to different situations.
Positive parenting uses techniques that work well for every child. These techniques help to develop a strong parent-child bond, develop good listening skills and above all loving your child – leading to a better-behaved, happy child and less-stressed parents. Positive parenting techniques are much more likely to work and leave you feeling more positive about your parenting.
