Good Parenting Tips
Here are some simple tips for enhancing the beautiful bond.
SAY I LOVE YOU:
Tell your child you love her/him every day-no matter what his/her age is.Even on trying days or after a parent-child disagreement,when you don't exactly like your child,express your love.A simple 'I love you ' goes a long way towards developing and then strengthening a relationship.
Without a tradition of sacrifice for one another, love is broken easily. Because parents sacrifice for children, the bond of parental love never breaks. And if children grow up in true parental love, they can never disobey their parents. When the degree of sacrifice and sincere effort for one another is extended beyond themselves, blessing comes to a couple; such a family is the blessed land that God visits.
TEACH YOUR FAITH:
Teach your child about your faith and beliefs.Tell him/her what you believe and why.Allow time for your child to ask questions and answer them honestly.
A SPECIAL NAME TO YOUR CHILD:
Create a pecial name for your child that is positive and special or a special code word for him/her.Use the name as a simple reinforcement of your love.
HAVE A SPECIAL BEDTIME RITUAL:
For younger children ,reading a favorite bedtime book,or telling stories is a ritual that will be remembered most likely throughout their life.Older children should not be neglected either.Most teenagers still enjoy the ritual of being told good night in a special way by a parent- even if they don't act like it!
LET YOUR CHILD HELP YOU:
Parents sometimes inadvertently miss out on opportunities to forge closer relationships by not allowing their children to help them with various tasks.Uploading groceries after going to the store is a good example of something that children can and should assist with.
PLAY WITH YOUR children:
The key is to really play with your children .Play with dolls,ball,make believe games,checkers,sing songs,or whatever is fun and interesting.It doesn't matter what you play,just enjoy each other's company.

EAT MEALS AS A FAMILY:You have heard this before,and it really is important!Eating together sets the stage for conversation and sharing.Turn the TVoff,and don't rush through a meal.When schedules permit,talk and enjoy.It can become a quality time most remembered by young and old alike.
THINK CREATIVELY:
Some parents have special nights or 'standing dates' with their children.Whether it is a walking around the neighbourhood,a special trip to a playground or just a movie night with your family.It is important to celebrate each child individually.
ABOUT YOUR KID'S CHOICES:
You don't have to like their mismatched shirt and shorts,however it is important to respect those choices.Children reach out for independence at a young age,and parents can help to foster those decision making skills by being supportive and even looking the other way on occassions.
MAKE THEM A PRIORITY:
Your children need to know that you believe they are a priority in your life .Children can go through excessive stress and notice when they feel you are not paying attention .Don't worry about the small stuff.

Parenting
Parenting is the process of promoting and supporting the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood. Parenting refers to the activity of raising a child rather than the biological relationship.
In the case of humans, it is usually done by the biological parents of the child in question, although governments and society take a role as well. In many cases, orphaned or abandoned children receive parental care from non-parent blood relations. Others may be adopted, raised by foster care, or be placed in an orphanage.
The goals of human parenting are debated. Usually, parental figures provide for a child's physical needs, protect them from harm, and impart in them skills and cultural values until they reach legal adulthood, usually after adolescence. Among non-human species, parenting is usually less lengthy and complicated, though mammals tend to nurture their young extensively. The degree of attention parents invest in their offspring is largely inversely proportional to the number of offspring the average adult in the species produces.
