Parenting is one of the most difficult jobs in the world and everyone can agree to it. No matter how careful parents are, they are bound to make some mistakes. No child comes with an instruction manual since every child and every family is different, but there are certain things that every parent can avoid in order to make their and their child’s life easier. Child psychotherapists claim that they see some common problems that all children face and the root cause of that is deep seated in the parenting style of their parents. Here are some mistakes that you can avoid with your child.
Not Leading By Example
When you are a parent, a child looks up to you for example. You may be great at giving advice but how often do you follow your own advice? You can tell your child a thousand times that a certain habit is very bad for them but when they see you doing the exact same thing, they will treat you like their idol and follow in your footsteps.
