New Delhi: Nowadays, parenting tips are becoming a bit difficult, but according to the increasing challenge, parenting coaches and workshops have also started taking place these days. In modern era parenting, equal emphasis is given on mental development along with physical development, because in traditional parenting no one paid attention to the mental aspect. However, now this perception has changed and people have started giving great importance to mental development. However, some parents are unaware of this aspect and unknowingly end up doing something that impacts the mental health of their child. Let us know those 5 habits of parents which affect the mental health of the child-
Not celebrating child's achievements
Whether it's getting good grades, winning a football match or making a small drawing to show you, it's important that you praise them for every small accomplishment. Some people believe that this makes the child weak and cannot tolerate evil or failure, but here it is important to pay attention to the fact that when the child loses, you pamper him and tell him that this is a part of life. There is a story which everyone likes. If you do not do this, children will remain mentally stressed and will lose hope of performing well in the future.
Don't have unrealistic expectations
You want the child to excel in studies as well as in other activities like sports and dance and when the child is unable to do so, you taunt him by opening a box of your imaginary expectations in front of him. This hurts his self-esteem and makes him feel that he is not capable, which affects his mental health.
over-enforcement of rules
When a child walks with the parent's remote control for a minute from the time he wakes up in the morning till he goes to sleep at night, then after some time he starts feeling suffocated. He becomes dependent on everything and is afraid to do anything himself.
talking by tag
Telling your child that you are lazy, that you messed up, that you are weak creates such feelings about yourself in your child's mind. Then his self-confidence weakens and he starts thinking less about himself. Therefore, never give such tags to children.
compare with others
Comparing your child with another child creates jealousy in his mind, which makes the situation worse instead of improving. Instead of comparing, understand that all children are different and all have different abilities. Recognize your child's talents and encourage them.
