Our daughter grow up surrounded by matured people. I instructed our helper who also is her nanny because me and my hubby are both at the office the whole day, not to baby talk with her.

Of course she started to be able to talk by those syllables first , Mama and Papa. But what I remembered is her for not long being able to talk straight already meaning no more those like twisted tongue.

I think that will really happen if all of us will always talk as we talk not baby talk just so the toddler can understand us. It’s actually one way of teaching our babies outgrow their baby talk fast.

Parenting has its own challenges. Today the children are very intelligent, shrewd and communicative. One has to be very careful before promising them anything as once you make your promise they latch on to it. They keep reminding you that you did not keep up your promise that registers very well in their minds. Parents have to spend more time with their children but at the same time have to be stern where they are supposed to be and see that the children become independent in their lives.

One must try his or her best to see that the child gets the best and has happy memories of his or her childhood. Childhood is the foundation based on which the personality of the child is formed. So due care has to be taken that the child gets the support required. Agreed one cannot give all things at all times and the same has to be told to children and they should be made aware of that. Once they understand that concept they will be wise in money matters.

Women who work night shifts should be more aware of such safety tips; like what you had said, they should at least carry a pepper spray, a stun gun, a long umbrella, to ward off potential attackers. They can also carry a whistle to call the attention of other people, or a burglar alarm attached to her bag which can drive away those bad elements.

Learning martial arts, or keeping fit and healthy is also a plus.

Yes, self defense and presence of mind are very important for women in today’s world. One has to be alert the moment one walks out of the house till the time one reaches her house after going out may be for studies or for work or any other reason. The potential attackers generally try and figure out who is vulnerable after studying them and their movements well and after making sure that one can get something which they want out of them. If someone knows self defense and uses the same the first reaction of the attacker is he is shocked and taken aback as he would not have expected this from the potential victim as it is like a bolt from the blue.

Once this happens their confidence level fall a bit and they become jittery unless there are many. It is better the woman after doing this immediately shout or scream for attention or help from other passersby that will further instill fear in these people and they will usually retreat and runaway. The woman has to see her safety and see that she reaches a safe place before calling for the police if required.

I do agree of Women’s Self Defense, to be very necessary. Women are faced with dangerous situations on a daily basis. Women have to always be vigilant about their surroundings. There have been women who have been robbed, killed, raped, etc. Therefore, it is important for women to learn self defense to protect themselves from harm.

There are classes on learning self defense for women to be taught how to defend themselves in many ways. Besides, in my opinion, learning self defense is also great as an exercise. Learning self defense will definitely keep you in shape.

It is important for self defense to be a part of a women’s life. Developing the energy for accomplishing the teachings of self defense is mandatory in today’s society.

Sometimes women are placing themselves in dangerous situations, unknowingly or knowingly, and not even realizing it until it is too late. That is why women need to be observant about their surroundings. Self Defense is a good tool for women to have and learn!
