A collaboration between parents and students plays a critical role in building a successful future for children. Trust in a child, positive conversation, timely guidance and motivation create miracles.
Providing materialistic support and keeping expectations from children is not sufficient. Active involvement of parents is necessary in setting the academic goal of a child. Nurturing a child's creativity is a significant step in the development stage of a child.
Emotional Support :
Every child depends on parents for emotional support. It is important in shaping not only their personality but also their ability to face challenges and grow into resilient, confident individuals. Complementing, continuous encouragement from parents helps children to develop a positive self-esteem. This emotional reinforcement makes children foster a sense of self-worth.
Emotional support, trust of parents is a critical investment in a child’s well-being. Parents play a crucial role in the development of their child’s individuality. By actively listening, validating feelings, and providing encouragement, parents help their children build a strong foundation for resilience and self-confidence.
Fostering Emotional Intelligence:
Regular interaction with parents brings good behavioural changes in a child. Children begin to recognize, express and regulate their emotions. Even they start to explore the world around them due to emotional security.
Sitender Sehrawat, Social Entrepreneur explains, “A lack of focus on children’s emotional and social well-being can lead to flawed perceptions about themselves and the world. Children should be taught that emotions like stress, anxiety, fear, and courage are natural mechanisms to help them navigate life. Emotional development, just like academics, should be ongoing and integrated into their learning.”
Resilience in the face of challenges:
Life is like a roller coaster, full of unexpected ups and downs. Parents should teach children to learn coping strategies, offering comfort during tough times, and bouncing back from disappointments. Parents should encourage their children to face adverse situations patiently. They reinforce the message that ultimate aim is not just to win but failure is part of learning. To accept failure strongly and learn from it for future success is real learning.
Positive Mental Health Outcomes :
Currently the main problem which is observed in children is stress, anxiety, depression. Nurturing an emotional environment promotes emotional stability, which is necessary for mental well-being. Mental health is a person’s overall well-being. It’s an emotional, psychological and social well-being.
Positive mental health helps children to handle stress effectively. It makes their work easier in the school, home or at a social place. Automatically the child participates and enjoys various activities with an ease.
Lack of mental health affects children adversely. Children may face various problems like sleep irritation, lack of energy, thinking negatively, thinking to harm others, shouting, self-isolating, lack of appetite.
Mental health moulds a child's character. A child’s mental health can influence how they perceive the world, interact with others and handle challenges, all of which contribute to shaping their character.
Quality time:
It is essential to spend daily quality time with children. It may be 15 to 20 minute: but it’s very essential. Healthy conversation increases the sense of belonging. You should have a clear conversation with the child about his / her daily routine. Start your conversation with good news / information. Use of kind words helps to open up a child. Avoid speaking on just academics or homework. Conversation should start on casual points. Then it will be diverted to academics slowly without hurting the child's emotions.
Every parent should give space to their children to talk, to express themselves. Parents should listen to the feelings and related thoughts of their child without interrupting. They should react to their child patiently and calmly. Even they should offer reassurance. Positive, encouraging, healthy conversations help children to speak on every necessary aspect of life. Automatically it’s not required for any child to hide anything from parents. It makes a child an honest and confident person. Inculcating the habit of using healthy coping mechanisms to perceived stresses as well as helping them to learn essential skills will help to build better mental hygiene.
Outdoor activities boosts child’s well-being:
Nature always inspires and kindles a child's mental and physical capacity. Even they feel relaxed and happy. Exposing children to outdoor activities helps them to form positive insights of the world. Making children laugh and having fun is a great way to break down barriers.
