Faith in oneself and one's abilities is the best thing parents can give their children. Top 5 ways.

Many parents dream of a happy future for their children, yet at the same time, unknowingly cultivate in their children the qualities of unhappy people. Let's take it step by step. 

Do you think self-confidence and belief in one's abilities are necessary qualities? A child who is confident in themselves, in their abilities, in their desires bravely goes towards their dream, full of energy and strength. They know their strengths, their resources, and achieving it is just a matter of time. This is not a fantasy but reality because children can happily and playfully gain life experience and easily develop qualities necessary for adult life.

For example, punctuality, have you seen a child be late for their favorite practice or class? Or, diligence - children can repeat a favorite dance many times, sing a song, draw a beloved character, and so on. But the most important thing I want to highlight is that only family and close people, by providing support and trust to the child, can give them the best gift - faith in themselves and their abilities, and with this wealth, the child can boldly step into adult life. In case of difficulties, perceive the situation not as the collapse of hopes, but as a chance to gain new experience and improve. For this, parents only need to place the right emphasis. So:

1. Teach children to enjoy the process of achieving a goal, not just the result. It's not scary if something goes wrong, it's scary if the child no longer wants to try their hand.

2. Learn to feel your children and if you see the child wanting to draw, dance, sing, write poetry, cut, sew, etc., even if it doesn't match your vision of the child's future, give them a chance, maybe this passion will become their life's work.

3. Allow the child to solve their problems independently, only in this way can they feel what they are capable of; simply be there, in case they need your support or just a loving and accepting parent's look.

4. Eliminate criticism and use the technique "I-message": objectify any situation and speak only about your feelings, reactions, intentions.

5. The child will still adopt your model of communication in the family and society as a role model, so make sure that success and happiness are your real state and not a demonstration.

Когда-то, в один прекрасный день, любой, даже самый воспитанный, приятный, милый, добрый, отзывчивый, любящий «обнимашки» ребенок превращается в «занозу» и изгоняет в прямом и переносном смысле, еще недавно горячо любимых родителей, из своего пространства. И это безусловно может сбить с толку, а иногда и просто взбесить родителей. 

Once upon a time, on a fine day, any child, even the most well-behaved, pleasant, sweet, kind, responsive, and hug-loving one, turns into a "thorn" and in both the literal and figurative sense, expels the recently dearly loved parents from their space. And this can certainly be confusing and sometimes just infuriate the parents.

Часто на консультации психолога «вскрывается» сильная обида на родителей. Недодали любовь, время, внимание, когда было так нужно. Не позволяли чувствовать свои чувства, думать свои мысли, навязали убеждения, которые сейчас сильно мешают жить. Запрещали быть собой…, но ведь, если честно, это время давно прошло. И если сейчас задать себя вопрос, а кто теперь мешает быть собой, жить свою жизнь? Ответ будет очевиден – я сам/сама.

«Моя жизнь – моя ответственность и только я выбираю…»
