In the end a child’s actions is based on how they were brought up from beginning of life, by teaching them right from wrong, good and bad. Always know that in good teaching good deeds will be rewarded but on the other side of the token when bad actions take place consequences will be given in different ways. Permissive and Authoritative Parenting are opposites but in the end have the same consequences towards the end but in desperate needs they will result back to what they were…
Parental involvement in children’s education from an early age can have an effect on the child’s educational achievement which will continue to do so into adolescence and adulthood. When parents are involved in a child’s learning it is believed that it equate with better outcomes, for example with their cognitive development. Also having the parents involved it provides a range of benefits for children…
While children are influenced by many things, there are no greater influences than that of their parents. Parents are a child’s first playmate and while their world grows parental influence will always be one of the most determining factors in how the child will grow and develop.…
Learning, the act of acquiring new knowledge, is a simple skill which all humans possess in order to survive. To pursue a desired journey to reach success, one must begin at the very bottom and gradually built up. Parental influences play an important role in a child’s early stages in life, as it is one’s main source of knowledge. A parent’s advice is mainly targeted to help their child to become the best that they can be. However, no one can predict the best possible outcome none other than one’s self.…
This article talks about parents wanting their children to have the best of the best, but is it really what is for the best, or what society deems as the "the best" that parents are looking for? Often times, parents fight for their child to have the best teachers, so they can be the highest achiever in the class, which ultimately leads to getting into the top college. But what these parents don't seem to understand is what society deems as "best" may not be the greatest for the individual child. At the same time, a child's teacher spends almost eight hours a day with the child learning his/her different learning styles. I think when it comes to education; a teacher is more knowledgeable with the child's best interests.…
Parenting and the way one chooses to parent is so crucial to child development; it affects every aspect of the child’s life. Parenting styles are choices and there is no right or wrong way to raise a child. In society there may be, but it only matters how to the person raising their child. There are endless ways people raise their children and even though we have four main parenting styles, sometimes many parents don’t even fit into one. Parents should just strive to raise their children as well as they can. The biggest thing a parent can do for their child is to teach them, support them, and be there for them. “At the end of the day, the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents.” - Jane D.…
The realization of how powerful education is dawned upon me for the first time when I started teaching my domestic help’s son during my free time after high school. As empowering as it was, I took it as a responsibility to do my best to help him in his studies. His innocence and playfulness redefined childhood for me, as I myself became a child with him, enjoying the little pleasures of mentoring the kid. However,…
Parents have a great deal of responsibility. They are their children's first teacher. It is from parents, children can learn their culture, social skills, life skills, and get exposed to many experiences. Parents must be willing to take on the challenge of exposing their children…
It is often said that parents are the first teacher of a child. Although parents neither teach their children things directly nor teach by design and children don’t always learn when their parents intend to teach them, they themselves have started to learn from their parents while they are doing things by watching and imitating. Therefore, many people think that the way children get knowledge by observing behavior of adults and copying it is the best one. For me, this statement is partly right for some reasons.…
After becoming a single, young mother I found that I was lost, confused and had several reservations. I was alone and didn’t have anyone I knew that was in the same situation as me or had the answers to all the questions that lingered through my head daily. Living in a small town like Atchison, Kansas, I figured there were no programs being offered to young single parents or should I say I didn’t think there were any programs that were being offered to young single parents. Little did I know there was one that was going to change my outlook on development, parenting, and being the best mom and teacher I can be, for my son. I later found a program called Parents as Teachers that offered support, classes, activities, field trips, and monthly home visits at no cost to me. This was incredible! I was finally getting the answers to my questions, the support I desperately needed, reassurance that I was doing a great job, and most importantly I was getting to socialize with other parents who were in the same position as I was. This was great, but how come I had never heard about this before? Why didn’t I see posters or ads around Atchison about this organization for parents? How come there were only 11 parents participating in this group? These were all questions that came to mind after participating in this organization for the very first time. The answers to those questions were easy, it was as simple as marketing! They did a poor job at marketing this organization in Atchison and not many people were aware of this group or aware of what they offered. Something has to be done in my community to get this organizations name out because it could benefit hundreds of more families in my community.…
Parents aren't always right, their intention is to elaborate children minds, and let them think they are always right, which they are not. since they are they the parent , they think they are right. No parent cannot be right all of the time (parents are not always right) because they would have to be perfect and there is not one person in this world that can truly claim to be perfect. Parents make mistakes, can have bad judgement at time and don’t always understand how different the world is now from when they grew up but lets face it they also have that much more experience than we do.The world isn’t a perfect place. Now whether they are right most of the time or not is a different story, but, the fact is that parents can be just as stubborn as kids. When they think they are right, they really think that they are right.Parents should give their children the chance to access their experience and knowledge, but also realize that their children aren’t them, they aren’t going to live the same way, nor will they want to be told everything, kids need to learn for themselves, even if it may hurt them, physically or emotionally and that will make them free of indoctrination and they become a free and critical thinker.We are in this world because of our parents and we are well aware of the fact that we should respect them. They always think good of us regardless of our behavior and attitude towards them. They give us instructions and advice pretty often and we have a belief that they are always right. They want to see us succeed. But are they always right?the insecurity of the parents especially in the major chunk of the middle class population of India, that determines the decision making of the parents towards their…
“Nothing is secure when you become a parent, except the love you have for your children” Dr. Samuel Caddish. As a personal opinion, I would agree on that, parents make the best teachers to their children because they are the ones who begin the whole education, from the first word to the first steps, they are the ones who love them the most so they’d give their best as teachers.…
Almost for sure our parents are the best teachers at the beginning of our lives, which actually corresponds to the parents' role in nature. Parents are most committed and involved in teaching their children; they have a kind of instinct to sacrifice a part of themselves for the betterment of their children. They love us and have great patience while passing down their knowledge to us. They wish us a success and thus will not teach us bad things. And of course, implicit learning occurs when children unconsciously copy some of their parents' habits and styles of behavior.…
On the other hand, there is another reason for me to consider that parents teach us constantly. For instance, throughout our lifetime not only do our parents provide us with all living needs but they also are responsible for introducing the world to us. Furthermore, they teach us by what they say and do to tell us how to face with problems to weather difficulties optimistically. Hence, how can we stop thinking of our parents as the best teachers?…
In the second place, our experienced parents are our best teachers of today's complicated society. From our teachers at school, we can learn sophisticated knowledge. But how can our teachers tell us how to communicate with others, how to deal with strangers, how to behave in different occasions, and how to make important decisions of our daily life? Only our parents, who will spend their whole life loving us, caring us will tell us how to steer our own boats in the ocean of life without selfish consideration.…
