We as parents should never compare our children with their siblings or any other child .
Each and every child has their own way of thinking.
Each and every child has their own problems.
We as parents should guide, nuture, and love our children.
We need to think how would we feel as parents if we were in the child' s shoes.
Don' t be to hard on these children.
Encourage,encourage,and encourage.
So, therefore ...as parents we need to lighten their loads every now and then ask the child to talk, talk, and talk about their dreams, want they want out of life and what they truly want out of life.
Sometimes we may not like what they have to say, but we as parents have to remember WE were like them when we were younger. Our parents really did not know how to handle us when we had problems.
We have to show them what is wrong and what is right, but we have to remember they willeventually have to make their own decisions later on, but now we have to show and guide them on the correct path of life.
Remember the children of ours could be tomorrow' s leaders!!!
