Learn to build solid family relationships with family love and awesome parenting.

Parenting is the process of raising and educating a child from birth until adulthood and is usually done in a child's family by the mother and father. Raising a toddler requires time and hard work but the rewards last forever. Your responsibilities as a parent during the toddler years include (but are not limited to) feeding, bathing, potty training, ensuring safety, teaching, and attending to the well-being of the child. Your responsibilities do not stop when children grow up and age. Good mothers and fathers are not afraid to tackle the latest issues facing today's parents.

Parents

We are always concerned about the well being of their offspring. They explain to their children how to behave, assuming that they taught the rules of behavior as they did the rules of traffic. They believe that children have positive and negative qualities, the latter of which parents should"weed out" or "prune" into an appropriate shape. We should make efforts to be aware of their adolescents activities, provide guidance, direction, and consultation. If we expect that children will sometimes act in ways that are inappropriate or undesirable, but prepare for such behavior by involving our children in the formulation of rules and consequences, we may discover that the joy is in the journey, and heaven is found along the way. Parents who, together with their children, set firm boundaries and high expectations may find that their children's abilities to live up to those expectations grow. Talk to other parents (here is a surprise, your mother and father have a degree in raising children) about what's on your mind. When misbehavior does occur, those who have involved their children in setting family rules and consequences can expect less flack from their children as they calmly enforce the rules.

Family

To provide an atmosphere of peace and justice in family, where no one's dignity is encroached upon both the mother and the father must provide leadership. A family model where children are expected to explore their surroundings with protection from their parents requires a continual review of their choices. Without a support network of helpful friends or family, the work of parenting can be difficult. You may find the best source of help and encouragement within you own families. After all you have two sets of experts that are willing and waiting to be consulted. Juggling a family, a career and a relationship with our significant other can be a challenge for any family and the children are most at risk. As a family discuss individual and family goals. How many times a week do you do something together as a family? (Include dinner, going out together, family events, etc.) Discussion of changes to the family routine can be started at a weekly get together so that every member of the family can consider the proposed change and voice their concerns.

Kids

Kids are not that hard to teach since they will always listen to what you have to say as long as what we have to say makes sense. Here's an idea, live what you preach. If mom or dad have bad habits their kids are certainly not going to listen to advice about eliminating their bad habits. Kids aren't a stupid. If you are concerned about their weight you need to set a time and go outside with them for a walk or a game of some kind. How can it be that parents don't realize their own kids are fat? Unhealthy eating habits not only produce long term health issues but destroy self esteem. Get your kids to give their time to helping others in need. Build good habits early and they will last a life time. For kids bad habits are a kind of necessity, comfort, entertainment and luxury. However, kids need to be told that their habits, apart from being annoying to their parents, can cause harm to them also. What can kids do when they feel ignored or overlooked? Many are playing organized sports, and parents are seeing good habits formed, team work, body fitness and an improved sense of self worth.

Health

It is our responsibility as parents to provide physical safety, shelter, clothes, nourishment and to protect our children from dangers. Developing a child physically refers to providing conditions for the healthy growth of the child. It is extremely important to develop healthy habits in our children at a very early age. Physical activity is a necessary part of developing the child. We hear a lot about the dangers of obesity in children. Being overweight brings serious health concerns for children including diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels and increased stress on joints. It certainly is a real downer if all the child hears is don't eat this or eat only this because it is good for you. The alternative to nagging your child is to develop their love for activity. You may have noticed that little kids love to run, jump, roll around and generally tear up their surroundings. That is a natural trait and if you develop that love of physical activity they will burn a lot of calories thereby reducing the need to diet all the time. Parents need to realize that actions have consequences. If the only thing you and your children eat is fast food or packaged foods you will get fat. Why? Those food choices need to use things that cause weight gain in order to taste good, stay fresh and look good. If you or your kids can't bear to give up hot dogs or pizza, then check out a healthier alternative. Look for easy, healthy recipes to feed your family. Offer healthy food choices and model healthy eating behavior.

Conclusion

Parenting toddlers requires emotionally sound parents and guardians. Parenting is the most important thing we do. It is too important to leave to chance and too important to be approached defensively or by reaction. Who does the majority of the parenting? Mothers and fathers naturally, but a support network of helpful friends or family helps share the work of parenting. It can be difficult and stressful but keeping the end result in mind will lighten the load. Good parenting includes, keeping your child safe, showing affection and listening to your child, providing order and consistency, setting and enforcing limits, spending time with your child, monitoring your child's friendships and activities and most important leading by example. Your children will copy everything you do good or bad. Take a look in the mirror to see how your child sees you.
