A Firm No – Does not question your Parental love
A Firm No
– Does not question your Parental love
People misunderstand that loving their children is giving
them whatever they ask for. If you give them everything they ask for, the
children will become more and more stubborn.
Saying NO,
to a child for anything they ask does not question your love, in fact, it’s your
love for which at times you have to say a NO, a FIRM NO
Most of the time we believe that love can only be expressed
by giving whatever the child demands. We as parents feel that we should not
deprive our kids of any materialistic things or comfort, and that’s the way
love is to be shown. Actually, by doing this we are harming them. Our love
should not be conditional on fulfilling the demands of our kids. We should be balanced figure in fulfilling the demands and giving the correct amount of
anything to our children.
No
is not a question to your Parental Love
A “No”
to anything cannot be or should not be a question of our love for our kids.
Because a proper balance of “ yes” to correct demands and a ”No” to incorrect demands
will only make our children better adults. The kids of parents who always say
“yes” to everything become “yes” listeners”, they don’t have the world known in
their dictionary. These children cannot confront or tolerate a” No” from anyone, later this
attitude disturbs their emotional stability and teenage crime takes place. Teenage crime is increasing day by day, somewhere our unthoughtful love is
responsible for this factor.
Accepting Demands is not about affordability only
Before accepting the child’s demands we should also think
that the demands are genuine, correct, and actually needed. Majorly the
demands are status oriented. It’s not the question of whether the demand is
affordable or not, the affordability should not be in reference to the cost of
the demand but in the context of the demand being correct, genuine, and actually
needed.
In today’s era where demands are mainly status-oriented, we
should analyze before committing to any demand. Without thinking, if we fulfill all
the demands the child will become stubborn and dissatisfied, in fact, gradually
they will stop valuing things they get easily. It is very important to say a
firm “No” to the
children for their undue demands and even parents should not feel guilty for
any refusal they make to their children.
No will teach the children to Accept Rejections
A “No”
to the child will help them accept their rejection, which in life is a lesson to be
learned, as life will not always be pleasant to serve him whatever he demands,
we, as parents want to up bring a strong child and for that “No” at times, is needed.
Before approving any demands of our children we, as parents
should pause, and think twice,
Do we want to make our children emotionally strong or weak?
It’s a simple equation –
More Yes = emotionally weak children
Sometimes No = emotionally strong children.
Listening to No and Accepting No makes the children accept failures
easily in life…
Let’s prepare children for Life….
Happy Parenting
No
is also a language of Parental Love
