Right before our very eyes, we watch our children growing up. Time flies bye and it seems just like yesterday they were babies learning to walk and crawl and now they’re involved in school and making new friends and learning to be independent. From the time they’re born, we are constantly learning to let go and this is what parents before us have said. The result will then have to be changing our parenting strategies. Like our child, our parenting role matures, grows, and develops. You undoubtedly discovered your child having their own unique personality and temperament as they grow. Unconsciously redeveloping your parenting skills around the individual needs of your child is what you may have done. No parenting style is exactly alike the other, just as no two children are alike. We’ve become used to having to lead, guide, and consistently encourage the child through their childhood while encouraging independence in order to build their self esteem and confidence level since some children need more guidance and feel more unsure of themselves. Yet another child may be very intrinsically motivated and very willful and not need a great deal of guidance or leadership from you. As you encourage their independence, don’t forget that you also need to encourage their ability to ask help when needed and continue to praise them for their actions and deeds. In order to successfully adjust our parenting skills, the most important tools we have are our eyes and ears. We have to see what’s going on with our child and we have to hear what they are telling us. Encouraging our child to be their own individual while being available to them when they need us is important. However, it can be situation-specific. A child may not need us to be as directly involved with their schooling to ensure their overall academic success, but they do need us to be more involved in their social life as they may be feeling a bit shaky or scared when it comes to making new friends or meeting new people. It is very important to “Talk” & “Listen” daily to your child right from when they started to speak Bottom line is, your parenting skills should grow and change as your child does. Keep your eyes and ears open and communicate honestly and openly with your child, and you’ll both mature gracefully.
