Hi mothers, welcome back to the Parent Education program where we celebrate every Monday as Mother's Monday. Today in part two of the series Common Parenting Mistakes we'll discuss 7 more of such mistakes. In our last video the 7 Parenting Mistakes that we had discussed for, not leading by example, fighting your children's battles, skimping on polity time, letting technology take over, projecting your goals onto your kids, passing on phobias and neglecting your partner. So let's continue and see what are the other 7. 8. Using a one-size-fits-all approach. Too often we make assumptions about supportive techniques and environments without asking if they are tailored to these specific needs of the child. A better way is taking a more personalized approach in handling kids. That is, figuring out a child's individual quirks and tailoring discipline and rewards to best fit those particular needs. Providing generic techniques even if they are helpful to some children is often insufficient for children who have difficulties with emotional and behavioral regulation. And assigning each child's individual differences helps a staleer or approach to deal with our children. 9. Not Making Enough Meetime. One of the best things a parent can do for their children is to schedule in time for themselves each and every day. That meetime allows parents to avoid getting overwhelmed and frustrated by the demands of parenting. A while it may seem counter-intuitive, parents need to take care of themselves before they can effectively take care of their kids and others. 9. Not Expending A Child Freedom As They Age. Like most things, personal freedom gets easier to handle with practice. That's why it's crucial to give children an increasing room for independence as they age. While it's understandable that at an early age you would set boundaries, it's important to let those boundaries expand over time. Though doing so may initially cause fear for both parties, but letting children slowly build their independence is more effective than expecting them to learn it all at once in adulthood. 9. 9. Reacting In The Moment. Because children are reactive, it's sometimes easy to react almost immediately to their behavior during a conflict. However, it's important to remember that children are also impressionable and always watching. Therefore, instead of displaying a reaction of anxiety, anger or sometimes insecurity take the time to think before you react and consider the consequences. 12. Doing Everything For Your Kids. Of course, parents will responsibility for their child's well-being, but that children translate into catering to their child's every whim. It's fine to want to help them to some degree, but doing everything for them removes appreciation in addition to building really bad expectations. 13. Not letting kids make mistakes. Every parent wants the best for their kids and wants to protect them, but sometimes it's important to let them fail. In the long run, the best way to make sure they are able to handle mistakes and heal from those buns and bruises that come with them is to let them dust themselves off and come back from any slip-ups. 14. Not listening to your kids. Most of the time, it just gives more voice, that means taking the time to listen to what they have to say is a crucial part of making children feel valued. While their thoughts may be disagreeable, at least give them the time of the day. And if something is really bothering them, take it seriously no matter how trivial it may seem to you. For more parenting mistakes and how to rectify them, keep watching. Thank you. Thank you.
