Be there for them. Let them know how much you love them. Participate in things with them. Ask them questions. Let them know how important they are to you.
Oh, that reminds me, did you see those old public service announcements or commercials? Family. Isn't it about time? Do you know what I'm talking about? Did you see those?
I have three little girls and this is something that I am learning and trying to do well. When you spend time to get to know each child, you have a better chance of influencing them.
Unfortunately, I think some people grow up in a culture where hurting a child to discipline them is normal in their family and I don't think that that's right. I think that you can discipline a child by sending them to their room or setting up other consequences like taking away toys.
But when you invest time in getting to know your child and really loving them, then your influence becomes more natural. They want to listen to you. You don't have to force them to listen.
It doesn't mean that there isn't going to be issues that come up or there isn't going to be discipline that's necessary. I know that that's the case with my own daughters, but I have found that the things that I've shared is true. Get to know your children, spend time with them.
I have left a lot of messages thanks for your patience here but one more thing is when a child gets old enough to reason with them, reason with them through the problem, ask them questions instead of saying my way or the highway.
Based on my own experience, it would be nice to have a father growing up that is understanding and not automatically punish their child for making a mistake and making them feel like a bad person or worthless person.
