    Raising kids is one of the biggest challenge that any person has to face in life. It is a big responsibility that needs full devotion, dedication, time and energy.
    Present day parents can easily agree to the […]

    • Parents should know about this; especially young parents who do not know what shouting at their children can do to them. Thanks for giving this information; that it affects them emotionally even in their adult lives.

      They should really be patient in explaining to their children what they wanted them to do, or for them to behave; it can be done in a nice way.

    • Very true. We didn’t ever shout at our daughter when she was a kid. Instead , we talk to her in a soft voice about what we would like to correct on her.

      We cajole her into following our advise.

      For example when we are at the mall and she wants a new dress or toy we will tell her we don’t have that in our budget. But we can just buy one on my payday.

      Thus. she won’t insist anymore. From then on, when she wants something at the mall , she would ask “Do you have money, mother. I like that one but if you don’t have the money, we will buy it next time when you have your payday again” .

      She grew up to be a smart and thrifty girl. 🙂

    • A issue which many parents are trying to find out how to cope with this issue. From my experience I have observed is that children are very intelligent and they are able to make out clearly what can get the work done for them. They understand things whom they can trouble and make them run around and who they cannot fool around with. The best answer is one should not shout at them but at the same time be stern in their tone children understand the tone better. Later once they fall in life they also have to be counselled what they are supposed and what is expected of them and why.

      If they feel convinced that the rational being put before them by their parents is logical they will most probably understand what is being told and fall in line. It should be a nice mix of different tactics which will make them understand things and most importantly if they feel it is for their good and are convinced they will fall in line and understand. Thanks for raising an important issue which many parents are struggling to figure out and many are confused.

    • Well, where I come from shouting is the order of the day, but in the end it hardly yields result. Going by this article, it’s like beating a child constantly to change the child, but its the reverse, the child gets used to the beating. I have learnt to control my anger these days, because shouting just gets it done at the moment, but not permanently.

    • Kids hated to be shouted at, they find mom annoying, nagging and bothersome.
      Ends up not listening and lots of argument follows.

    • I believe it’s not an easy thing to raise a child but yelling and shouting all the time, it won’t help too much. I think it’s better to try and explain things to a child than to yell all the time and stress kids out. But sometimes when it gets overwhelming I think you almost can’t help but shout at kids.

    • Mouthwash is really needed in cases when one can not immediately brush his teeth. It is nice to smell a person who had used it.

    • Indeed in this era, a lot of things have evolved especially that internet became a very important tool to be able to communicate faster with those people we would like to be in contact with.

      Though, people have now more sedentary lives, because people would just be at home and be sitting in front of their computer so as to use the internet. And the internet can be addicting .

      If suddenly the internet would go off , we find ourselves empty because we cannot be on the social media. It’s as if the day would be so boring.

      Besides, in this era , things have become high tech , so much so that in some places robots replaced humans in some establishments. Thus, unemployment happened.

      Well, maybe in all things it has its pros and cons. We just have to know how to avoid the cons.

    • True failures can be made the stepping stones to future success provided one is willing to learn from his or her mistakes. While one is bound to commit mistakes and fail in life one should get up as one would when they fall on the ground. I have never seen a person fall on the ground and stay in the same position. This is the same thing I tell anyone who fails to make them understand what it is.

      If we are responsible for our actions we will be willing to accept our decisions whether they are good or bad. The wise will learn from both success and failures and not just from failures only. There are innumerable examples of famous people who have failed many times in life but did not give up and learnt from their faults and emerged better and stronger. Post well appreciated.

    • Life is a blessing given to us by God. We should appreciate it and make the best of it. We need to associate with positive people do positive things and show that we appreciate this gift. If u do negative things associate with negative people and never make improvements to ur life than u will not be blessed. Always appreciate what you have been given no matter how small.

    • Each day is a learning experience for all of us. If yesterday we were down, let us see to it that we work on how to make better the next day.

      Have the determination to get up. An example is , don’t ever think that a work on which we are thinking of applying might be difficult. Take it as a challenge when you think it is difficult. Give it a try. Learn how it is being done.

      Some people are go getters. Be one of them. Don’t be deter from trying , if you haven’t tried doing and learning it yet. Give up if after how many months, you still can’t learn how it is being done. But when you finally give up, look for another job and give it a try again if it’s for you. Who knows, the next one will be the job that is where you can excel.

    • You are right when you said that we should be in the company of good people, positive people instead of negative ones who will pull you down. Other people usually judge you by the kind of friends that you have.
