Raising our children and communicating with them every day, we very rarely think about how they perceive us. There are several phrases that children should repeat every day so that they grow up happy.
10. You will succeed (I believe in you)
In childhood, even small tasks sometimes seem huge and difficult for a child. This is due to the reason that your child is not yet aware of all his abilities and abilities. Therefore, encouragement from parents is very important for the motivation and inspiration of the child. Every day, repeat that a son or daughter is able to solve any problem. Then the baby from an early age will not be afraid of difficulties and will learn to overcome them. And in the future, it is parental support that will instill confidence in the strength and determination in an adult child, which is very important for any adult.
9. You are smart
Low self-esteem is not only in adults. Children can also think extremely badly of themselves. They compare themselves with other children and are very upset if they think that the comparison is not in their favor. And only in the power of parents to convince the child that his mental abilities are no lower than those of his peers. If you do not tell the child that he is smart, in any difficult situation that arises, he will give up and write everything off to a lack of mind. And the realization that parents believe in the power of his intellect will help the child successfully solve the most seemingly impossible tasks.
8. I am always with you
Until your child has matured, become independent and has not started his own family, it is the parents who remain the main people in his life. Over time, children understand that friends can be a coming phenomenon in life, but family is the only thing they really have. Therefore, from the very early years it is important to let the baby understand that you are always there and ready to support him at any time. Remind your son or daughter that they can count on your help and understanding in any situation.
7. How was your day
Each end of the day should be celebrated with a family conversation about how someone spent the day. After all, something interesting happens to us every day, and it is important for us to share this with loved ones. A child is also no exception. When you pick it up from a kindergarten or school or just sit together at dinner on the weekend, ask how the kid spent his day. But you can’t ask it mechanically, just for show. Even if your own day was hard and you are tired, listen carefully and actively respond to children's words. It is such heart-to-heart conversations that will help you in the future to maintain a warm relationship with your child when he grows up.
6. I feel sorry for you
From the height of the past years, we, adults, see children's grief as a small trifle. After all, our problems are really important, and children's sorrows are kind of nonsense. We do not even want to sincerely empathize with children's insults and sorrows, and this is very in vain. Adults know that all their problems will somehow be resolved and forgotten, and the child will see their sorrows as big and serious. Therefore, always try to delve into the children's problem and tell your baby that you sympathize and understand what is in his soul right now. This will be a great support for the child.
5. Do not give up
Adults know from their own experience that it makes no sense to be afraid of difficulties. But the children have no clue about this. Therefore, they can pass before any difficult situation. And in order for the child to grow confident in himself and be able to solve complex problems, parents must teach him to deal with failures and continue to go towards his goal, even if it seems unattainable to the baby. Let your child know that it’s okay to make mistakes, but it’s important not to give up and keep trying.
4. I trust you
When a child plans to do something or has already done and tells his parents about it, it is important for him to hear what they think about this. The phrase “I trust you” from mom and dad will be the biggest praise for the child in this case. His self-esteem will rise and he will feel like an adult. When you yourself want to tell the baby something serious and start the conversation with the phrase “I trust you, can you give advice?”, The child immediately feels very important and necessary.
3. I'm proud of you
Everything in a child’s life happens for the first time. For the first time, children sit down to read books, learn to wash floors or cook, solve their first problem in the classroom, and come to the sports section or drawing circle. And in these moments, any child wants to hear encouragement from mom and dad. Every day the child makes some small accomplishment or discovery, and your remark “I am proud of you” will inspire confidence in the child and lead him to new victories. Tell your child this phrase every day, and he will understand how much you value him and are proud of him.
2. Let's hug
Any person experiences several stressful situations during the day. And the children also feel, to some extent, every day, excitement or embarrassment. In order to reassure the baby after difficult weekdays, you just need to start by hugging him. Psychologists say that children need to be hugged several times every day. Without daily hugs, a child can grow up to be an indifferent person. Hugs will not only help reduce anxiety, but also improve mood and bring the baby closer to parents.
1. Thank you!
Never forget to thank a child when he has done something you asked him to. Even the most insignificant, in your opinion, things are worthy of praise - the baby tidied up the room, dressed himself or washed the dishes. Even if the child did something bad, be sure to thank him, and only then delicately point out the shortcomings. It is the word “thank you” that forms the desire to help in the future, teaches the baby to be polite and brings parents and children together.
