Teach your child to be responsible


Kids and Responsibility 

Children learn self-responsibility when they eat and sleep, when to dress up and play, when you help in simple tasks and work within set limits.
What to expect?

· Children who are given responsibility for tasks that are able to do a greater sense of belonging to the family, and they also developed the belief that a significant contribution in life.

· What to do for children to succeed in carrying out their responsibilities:
- Housework, objectives and expectations must be appropriate to their age and stage of development. Children can not perform tasks that are not yet ready.
- To successfully perform a task, children need help and constant reminder. Most children will not be able to complete successfully perform everyday tasks such as dressing, without reminders or supervision until his 10thyear.
- Tasks to be feasible, and a simplified task of 'steps' and clearly explained, so that children can more easily perceive and learn.

· Children will be more difficult to learn responsibility when:
- The daily tasks and duties meet, because they fear punishment or injury.
- When they are not allowed to bear the consequences of his actions.
- When they are often 'rescued' from unpleasant situations, even when it really is not necessary.

· Young children are not always able to understand what responsibility means and why they are going to work and clean at home so important to adults.

• Children spend much time in learning personal responsibilities like going to the toilet, dressing, eating, sleeping and washing hands. Do not expect to have plenty of time for housework.

· Children who easily lose concentration may need more help in learning to fulfill its duties.

· Children will often be happy to assist in tasks that they are new and unfamiliar, but very easy to lose interest if repeated several times.

· Giving children the real tasks that can help families to encourage them to do even more, but they can give a strong sense of recognition and ability.

· Learning is the responsibility of living with the process by which parents learn about children. Children have limited awareness of responsibility and are just beginning to learn the skills that are necessary in order for one to become a responsible person.


Meaning of accountability

Talk with your child about the meaning of responsibility. Teaching responsibility is to learn:
· Think about the feelings of others and just treat people
· Tell the truth, even when it means to admit a mistake
· Do the right thing, even if it means not to be in their or not to get what they want
· Develop self-control
· Appreciate themselves and their achievements, to be content with their own behavior, what they can do and achieve new things

Children learn best from experience. So you need to find ways in everyday life to show them how to look and responsibilities enable them to practice it.



Let the child feel that it is important

Given the child's upbringing increase the level of responsibility and decision making. Starting from the second year, give your child small tasks that can be filled, and gradually add the responsibilities of each year in parallel with djetovim acquiring new skills. Help your child develop their own reasons for expecting help and do not link the performance of duties with the money. If you pay each child a task that is done, you will learn to value it to meet its obligations can be measured only by money and that good work is always rewarded. Instead, tell your child that is an important person in the family and can count on his help and responsibility. If you start while the child is a little more, until he realizes that there is a difference between work and play, but will be within the family system of segregation of duties.


Introduction to skills

Meet the child with the skills they need to become a responsible person. This process will take several years.Start early, show the child what it looks like a responsible adult by yourself to practice responsibility and allow the child to just practice the skills developed.

To become a responsible person, your child must learn these skills:

· Decision-making. Offer your child a simple choice: "Do you want to play in the sandbox or on the playground?"Then, as the child grows up, talk about the possibilities and consequences of choice.
· Self-motivation. Small children respond to praise and because they want to fulfill their responsibilities.
· Skill memory liability (limited in young children).
· The skill of responsible debate on the situation.


Acceptance of responsibility

Teach your child to accept responsibility for their actions, good and bad. Discuss what you think you're doing well and you think you still need to fix it. When you make a mistake, admit it and tell your child what you can do to make things better. Encourage your child to accept praise for things well made, and to accept responsibility for errors. Show him that you believe in his ability to accept responsibility.


Learning from mistakes

Help your child to learn from their mistakes. Part of learning about responsibility and teach acceptance errors and retries. Help your child to create an environment of respect and learning environment rather than criticism and shame.



Simple tasks

Set tasks that a child can achieve with regard to their age and stage of development. Avoid giving your child responsibilities you have less than two and a half years. The children were then too busy developmental tasks - how to use your body, how to walk and how things work successfully. Predškolarcima give small tasks, such as jackets hanging on a hanger, toy store, returning a box of crayons or some other simple but useful tasks.


Finishing the job

A child can help in several ways to do the job properly:

· Praise your child regardless of whether the work is done well or not. Compliments are the best way to learn responsibility - more than a bribe or reward for a job well done.
· Help your child make the job properly. More likely to do if you are with him.
· Enter the fun. Let the music or tell funny stories about the toys.
· Share responsibility in smaller tasks. This child will not be so hard and it will facilitate a decision with which to start. "We first pick up the crayons on the floor."
· Establish a routine, for example. storing toys in the box before dinner.
· Try to team work when you need to do something in a hurry. Ask all the family to participate and see how it can be done in five minutes or less.
· Ask your child to help do something specific, rather than accusations that he made a mess.
· Sometimes it is sufficient only one word, eg. 'Jacket' that the child would know that it should be put into place.


Toys

When a child becomes a toy store 'too much', think about how to reduce the number of toys:

· For birthdays and holidays poklanjajte his small toys.
· Remove any old toys, and after some time they return. It will then see them in the 'new toy', but also remove the toys with which no longer plays.
· Some toys offer your child only in 'special circumstances' or when you want to have control over the number of toys with which to play.
· Consider the introduction of rules: "If later you can not save, do not play with them." If a child refuses to save the game after a toy or is exhausted, remove them for a while.



Money

Help your child understand that money. Talk about the different responsibilities that are associated with money: work for money, sharing with the poor people, and prudent spending. When you think that the child understand that money is for buying things and people work to earn it, and when you think you are ready to take responsibility for debt and money, maybe it's time to start giving him pocket money. Introduction to the responsible allocation of money to be paid to a child later in life.


Your little messenger

Ask your child to help convey the message to another person. The child shall enjoy in the delivery of the things you need. Allow him to convey a message to someone in another room, or ask to pick up dirty laundry and deliver it to you in the room where the washing machine. When you thank him, he will feel good and important that can help.

Do not spoil

Avoid bribing children forced to behave responsibly. If a child will only do what must be done or because they will be rewarded, they may not learn responsible behavior. One must learn to properly handle the pleasures that will later feel, not because it subsequently expects payments. Moderate reward the child's good behavior, but not if your child requires.

Psychic development of your child


The child begins to learn even before birth. That the child fully developed their potential need his love, security and attention. 
Recent studies show that prior to birth a child reacts to certain stimuli (beats listening to her mother's heart, recognized her voice, can make out the light). From birth to six years of life a child develops the most intense, both physically and emotionally and mentally.

The child is required to meet the requirements for physical development. It is also necessary to ensure the conditions for psychological development. Among the conditions of mental development are the most important parental love, security within the wider family and community care and other people important to the child.

The human voice, the character of the first child's attention and facilities are essential for the child's psychosocial development. Social interaction with the environment is the most important source of the child's experiences since the earliest times.

Parents are best placed to monitor the child's development. They need to recognize the warning signs that indicate a slower progression of the child.

Each child is unique and progresses at their own pace. Some children are progressing more slowly than others, but that in itself is no cause for concern. By observing how the child responds to touch, auditory and visual stimuli can be seen signs of disability. If a child does not respond to stimuli, it is necessary to seek expert opinion.

Early identification of disability is crucial for the further development of the child and reach their full potential.He needs help and support as soon as possible. Children with disabilities need extra attention and love, and protection against injury and violence. Also it should be encouraged to play with other children.

The family is a fundamental and vital place to protect children in developing and growing up, a community task is to make this possible. The child's parents and family should be encouraged for the greater interaction with the child (eg, talk and talk and dj etetu before he spoke only in our later ages to answer his questions and guide it to him emu interesting sixth month).

Parents are the best judges of when to decide to help the child, and when it should be left with him egov solutions?. Parents need to understand the child's emotions. If his emotions ridiculed or punished, they will grow up shy, withdrawn and unable to express normal emotions. If parents are careful and patient to the child, the child will grow up happy and mentally balanced.

The father and mother are important for the child's proper development. In addition to support and assist the mother after giving birth in the household, the father should be involved in the care of the child. In the game with the child's father helps in learning, acquiring new skills and emotional development of children. Father and mother giving the child a basis for understanding the family and society as a whole.

Children should be taught how to behave and express themselves by imitating their loved ones.

To form the child's behavior and personality are much more useful than adults are good examples of commands and words. If adults express their anger by shouting, aggression and violence, the child will learn the proper way to express anger. Conversely, if the adults treat children with care, understanding and patience, your child will follow suit in their behavior. In early childhood the child is naturally oriented themselves. Gradually learn to respect other people. Because of the emotional immaturity of children sometimes behave selfishly and adults understand. Socially acceptable behavior, children learn as they grow, learn to treat others, on the way to treat them.

Patience, understanding and empathy with the child will help him to grow up happy and balanced.

The physical closeness with their mothers after birth and in early life is very important for the child's psychological development. This contact is particularly exercised by breastfeeding. A child growing up in a further significant tenderness in the form of hugs, kisses, you will need to give your child a sense of security.

For proper psychosocial development of children is an important safety and support. For the safety of children is an important growth with the support of adults, with well-established and familiar layout and organized activities. Children who do not have a complete family or a family living in poor conditions and lack of support, need help, protection and / or monitoring of other adults who support them (this can be a social worker, a psychologist at the counseling center, the volunteers of various humanitarian organizations).

If children are not provided the proper conditions for the psychosocial development of the family, they need the help of the community and experts. It is important for understanding the child's emotions. Thus, for example.cry the way a young child expresses that something is wrong. Perhaps it is hungry, tired, it hurts a little, it is too hot or is cold, frightened and so on. Crying should not be ignored.

Growing up in children can occur fears (fear of darkness, animals). Children quickly outgrow their fears if they have confidence in the fact that their home is safe, that they are protected and that their parents and other close adults love. It is necessary to realistically explain the unknown child and frightening occurrence, and not intimidate a child in the educational purposes (eg, going to the doctor intimidate, frighten animals, etc.).

The game is very important for child development. When playing, the child develops mentally, physically and mentally.

Children play because it's fun. But the game is important for the child's mental and physical development.Playing simple objects and imitating the world of adult children begin to learn about the world in which they are located. The game helps develop skills of speaking and thinking. Children often learn trial and error, comparing the results obtained, questioning and finding ways to succeed in their ventures. The game expands children's horizons and help them acquire new knowledge and experience. Adults in the child's environment can help them with their participation in the game. But that should not dominate or impose too much control of children's play.The child should assist in achieving what he wants, but adults can not seem to place the child because the child in this case, lose the opportunity to learn something that can only be done, as it is important for later life.

In a game with children requires patience. As long as a child at play is not in danger to life and health, he should be allowed to independently create games and problem solving, and even that does not work every time.Sometimes failure helps in learning and acquiring new skills. Children like to dress up and pretend to be someone else (mother, father, teacher, doctor, etc.). It helps children understand and accept the ways in which other people behave. Children sometimes need a game alone, but most still need to spend time with other children and adults.

Corporal punishment is bad for your child


Approval of desirable behavior is a better way to teach good behavior of the constant criticism, shouting and punishment. It is necessary to show pleasure when you adopt a child a new skill, because if a child does not get impetus and encouragement, or gets a lot of complaints, will be his desire to adopt new skills diminish. 

When the ban by parents to children, should always be given a second option, for example. If something can not be touched, to offer replacement, something that can and can not just say "no." Physical punishment is detrimental to the child. It causes the child becomes unduly violent towards others. It can also make a child frightened and destroy his natural desire to learn from others.

Physical punishment was a common method of education in many areas. Parents who were themselves physically punished as children often such corrective measures applied to their own children, which is not good for the child. Each parent will be found sometimes in the situation that he wants to physically punish a child.Then it is best to refrain from acting in a moment of intense emotion, calm down and think about the motives of such a child's behavior and then act out smirenijeg state. You need to talk with the child (who is over) or apply a different penalty, not physical punishment.

Small children sometimes lie because it does not fully perceive the difference between the real world and fantasy. When a child does something wrong and unacceptable, the need to respond firmly but calmly pointing out that this is not the right way of behavior. It should give a simple and reasonable explanation. Children remember the explanations that have been received from the adults they love and they want to meet.Eventually, the child will accept these explanations and examples as a basis for their stock. In this way the child will develop an awareness and understanding about the difference between right and wrong.

Keep a calendar of tests and examinations. Whenever your child in school exam announcements, write to the big calendar on the wall. This will avoid last minute panic in the morning before the exam.
