Supporting Children through Love
The sky is the limit
As a child grows up, dreams are constant and at the forefront of many thoughts. There is nothing a child cannot be or do, because a child believes anything is possible. That continues for as long as the adults allow it to, and then the child’s mind starts to believe there are limitations.
There are many opportunities in a single day where an adult can praise the child and fill them full of love and confidence. This often happens from an adult that understands that confidence and love is an important factor in the
development of a young mind.
But what happens if the adult doesn’t see it that way? What happens if there is constant teasing, and an effort to undermine the confidence of the
child whether it is consciously or subconsciously from the adult?
There are parents that go by this saying; “if I didn’t get what I want, why should they get what they want?” This is a very selfish comment. It states clearly that if your life has not gone as planned, that you want the same for the child. It doesn’t always just fall on parents either, as teachers can do the same thing, because they may be jealous of the student’s looks, intelligence or popularity.
This type of attitude needs to stop. It can be very damaging to the children’s future going forward. The children of today are the future of tomorrow. If you do not want them to have better than you, you need to ask yourself why.
It’s a mindset that needs to be fixed.
Adults will benefit from the fresh, smart thinking children present, day in and day out. Children are a joy to be around, and add value to any day. If there are ghosts in your past and life didn’t go the way you had planned it, there are probably reasons for it. This wisdom can be passed down to the child in order to help them not make the same mistake, thus giving them a better opportunity to be confident, loving and successful in any endeavour they undertake.
A child filled with love and confidence that sits beside a shy child that has been teased constantly is all the evidence that one needs to see which approach works.
Each new day, approach it with wanting a better life for your child then what you have. Tell them to reach for the stars because they are so smart they can likely literally touch them. Tell them how handsome or pretty they are, and let them know you want better for them so they can do the things you have not been able to do. Let them reach out to each day filled with love, gratitude and confidence and they will walk into any situation with a coolness that can be picked up from any observer!
Praise a child every chance you get, it’s a positive energy that will help make the world a far better place.
