Do not unnecessarily protect teenagers from family problems. Such as psychological (even if there was an accident, someone’s illness or passing away, – it hardens the soul and makes it more sensitive) and material (it teaches to find a way out).A teenager needs positive and negative emotions. For successful development of a child it is useful to occasionally deny him/her something, limit his/her desires, thus preparing him/her to overcome similar situations in the future. It is the ability to cope with troubles that helps a teenager to be formed as a person. The role of an adult is, first of all, to help a child become an adult. This is mean to teach him/her to resist reality, not to run away from it. Keeping a child away from the real world, even with the best intentions, parents deprive him or her of the opportunity to gain life experience and find their way.

Never lie to a child, even if it is dictated by the best beliefs and care for his or her peace and wellbeing. Children in some unknown way feel the lie in any form. And the one who cheated once or twice, there is no need to wait for trust.

If you have already made mistakes in education. It will be harder for you than at the beginning of the journey. But if you find in your child at least a drop of good and then rely on this good in the process of education. You will get the key to his soul and achieve good results.

If you have realized that you were wrong and disregarded the opinion of your son or daughter in any matters important for them, do not be afraid to admit it to yourself and then to your child. And try not to repeat this mistake again. It is easy to lose confidence, and it is long and difficult to restore it.

Take care of the child’s health and his, learn to play sports with him, go on vacation, go hiking. What a delight the child feels from the usual sausage roasted at the stake, from a crumbled piece of black bread, which was found in the bag after returning from the forest, where you collected mushrooms together. And a day spent in the garage with your father repairing a car will seem more important for the boy than riding in the park on the “coolest” attraction. Just do not miss the moment when it is interesting for the child.

The same goes for the habit of doing things at home. A little one is interested in washing dishes, peeling potatoes, baking pie with his mother. And this is also an opportunity to talk, talk, and listen. We missed this moment – we “saved” the child so that he wouldn’t get his hands dirty, everything is lost forever.

The desire of adults to avoid talking to children on some topics teaches them that these topics are forbidden. Dodging or misrepresenting information causes undue anxiety among children. And, at the same time, do not give children information they do not ask about that they cannot yet deal with emotionally, which they are not ready to comprehend. The best option is to give simple and direct answers to children’s questions. So parents themselves need to develop comprehensively – not only in their specialty, but also in politics, art, and general culture – to be an example of morality for children, a bearer of human values and virtues.

In adolescence, children begin to assess the lives of their parents. Teenagers, especially girls, discuss behavior, actions, the appearance of moms and dads, teachers, and acquaintances. And they are constantly compared. At some point, the result of this comparison will affect your relationship with your son or daughter. It can be both pleasant and unpleasant for you. So, if you do not want to hit in the dirt with your face, start preparing for this assessment as early as possible.

The main thing in your relationship with your child is mutual understanding. To establish it, you must take the initiative and not to conceal offenses. You should not, as to go on about the momentary desires of the child, and always oppose them. But if you can not or do not consider it necessary to fulfill the desire of your son or daughter, you must explain why. And in general, talk more with your children, talk about your work, discuss with them their affairs, toy or educational, know their interests and concerns, friends, and teachers.

Maintain children’s confidence in themselves, in their abilities, and in the fact that even with certain shortcomings (which everyone has) they have their own undeniable strengths.

In the educational process, confrontation, a struggle between the teacher and the pupil, the confrontation of forces and positions are unacceptable. Only cooperation, patience and interested participation of the tutor in the destiny of the pupil give positive results.

Surprise – will be remembered! The one who makes an unexpected and strong impression becomes interesting and authoritative. What attracts a child to an adult? Strength – but not violence. Knowledge – remember, for example, the eternal “why?” in babies. What is their share, did you manage to answer clearly and fully? Mind – it is in adolescence when you are able to evaluate it. Skills – daddy knows how to ski, fix the TV, drive a car.

Do you want your child to be strong and healthy? Then learn for yourself and teach him the basics of knowledge about your body, how to maintain and promote health. This does not mean that you have to learn the arsenal of the doctor and the prescription of various drugs. Of course, physical and any other exercise should be in accordance with the age capabilities of the child.
