Parenting 101: Why Every Child Needs A Healthy Dose Of Neglect From Parents

A lot of children these days takes advantage of their parents when they try to help them. Children leave everything and every work for their parents if parents offer them help and they also become more stubborn and tend to show more attitude when asked twice.

Even though not all children are like that, some of them have even achieved a lot in their lives and some of them are working on it. However, majority of the children are spoiled these days. But why are they spoiled? Too much attention perhaps? Kids like it when parents give attention to them and gradually get used to it.

Centre of Parenting Education states that parents overdo their children by asking them if they need any help time and time again. It is important for a parent to neglect their child in a healthy manner and by doing this, a parent is doing a favor for their child.

When a healthy dose of neglect is given to a child by their parents, they learn to take responsibilities. They learn to handle things on their own, when a child see that their parents have not offered them any help, then they intend to do things on their own.

The Federalist post says that the key to successful parenting is when parents ignore their children. Parents have to take a step back because if they won't, then their child will always depend on them, which is definitely not a good thing.

If a parent won't take a step back at that particular point then they will be harming no none else but their own child. It will affect the character-building and the personality development of the child. So, if a parent wants the best for their children and they want them to be successful and dependent, then it's best for them to neglect their children for the meantime.
