Respect gets respect and the sooner you teach this to your child, the better it will be for you and your child’s personality development. What is respect? Respect is when kids look up to or admire someone because of their special abilities or they have done something extraordinary which deserves attention and care.
Why is teaching respect important? When you teach your kids to show respect you teach the virtue of acceptance and appreciation.
Showing respect helps in building a relationship of trust, wellbeing and safety. The doors of effective communication open when you teach respect to your child.
How can you teach your child to respect? Accepting rude behaviour should be a strict no-no. Positive feedback and encouragement by offering compliments is a morale-booster. Give an ear to all that your child has to say. Be patient and attentive while listening. Children might disagree with you on certain things but you have to respect this diversity and effective communication is the key to achieving this. Treat your child like a friend without crossing the line of being the parent in the relationship.
