I was reading a book called Maximum Achievement by Brian Tracy. He explains many wonderful things in this book. He explained the art of parenting in this book in detail. I am writing some of the important points .
The Art of Parenting:
The most important and enduring relationship that you ever enter into begins when you bring a child into the world. The impact of your parenting can affect your child and your children's children for generations. Parenting is the most profound responsibility of an adult.
The True role of parenting: The most important single role of parenting is to love and nurture your children and to build in them feelings of high self-esteem and self-confidence. If you raise your children feeling terrific about themselves, if you bring them up full of eagerness to go out and take on the world, they you have fulfilled your responsibility in the highest possible sense. Conversely, if you give your child everything of a material nature but raise him/her lacking of self-confidence and self-esteem, you have failed in your primary role.
The growing child develops a healthy personality in direct proportion to the quality and quantity of love it receives. Just as a plant needs sunshine and rain, a child needs love and nurturing.
Parents want the very best of their children. They want to raise their children to be happy and healthy. Why is it then that so many children grow up feeling insufficiently lover? Why is it that parents somehow deprive their children of the love they require for healthy growth?
Why parents don't love enough?
There are two major reasons for the failure by parents to love their children enough. First, the parents do not love thremselves. Parents with low self-esteem have great difficulty giving more love to their children than they feel for themselves. Second, the parents don't love their children enough is they often have the mistaken notion that their children exist to fulfill their expectations. A major cause of friction between parents and children is the parents' feeling or perception that the children are failing to 'measure up' to what the parent expect them to be or do.
Many parents look upon their children as chattel, as a form of property. They feel their children are behaving properly only when they are doing and saying what their parents want them to do. If the child's behavior differs from the parents' expectations, the parent responds with criticism. Without planning to do, they withdraw their love and approval from the child. They step on their child's emotional lifeline. The child feels unloved and the foundation is laid for personality problems later in life. All negative or antisocial behavior is a cry for help, an attempt to escape the feelings of guilt, anger and resentment that begin with criticism early in life.
