No Bad Child

THERE IS NO BAD CHILD


Who is a Child?
What is your definition of Bad?

Let's discuss...

No child is 'bad'. The reason we tag a child as bad or good is either ignorance or playing denial that the focus is not the child but the factors responsible for the tag (Attitude/Behaviour).

Before I list few factors amongst others responsible for the tags, we need to understand that when there is a challenge, it is important to identify the challenge, likely causes, then proffer solution to the challenge as soon as possible.

Factors Responsible For Bad Tag:
1. Family value - No family constitution.
2. Social influence
3. Peer group influence
4. Technology

1. Family value: Family Ethics(Dos and Don'ts), the family should have a vision and mission statement clearly written and communicated periodically to all members of the family. It shoud be printed and place where both mombers and non members could read and understand easily. The set constitution implementation/practice should be led by parent as good examples. Bring up a child in the way he/she should grow, when he/she is old, he will not depart from it.

Protect a child

2. Social influence: The family constitution greatly influences the social influence of a child, if the family ethics are clearly stated and implemented in the family, it has a way of shaping a child's behaviour against societal influence. Teach a child all he/she needs to know from home if not the society is waiting to either make or mar them.

P.S: Help a child out of foolishness with love
'Support' "a" child no matter what
Seek to understand a child
Build the self-esteem of a child
Never magnify a child's weakness

3. Peer group influence: Children are raised by different types of parents thus has either positive or negative effect on children, this children of same age bracket general mix up then seeding happens.

Prepare a child for every storm.

4. Technology: We live in a fast paced generation with increased internet/ media/ technology with which follows increasing toxicity exposing itself to all age ranges, sparing none. Out of 100 children between the age ranges of 2-10 years, 80% knows what a smart phone is and 50% can easily navigate their way through these smart phones, including the internet. Long story short, these kids need to be cautioned and guided through, Almost everything is done now using technology, hence exposing our children to the world on their finger tip, even if you feel you have done well raising your child, instilling discipline and good moral, ensure to censor a child's virtual intake. Parent/guardian should help. A child should avoid bad movies, bad pictures, bad songs and bad friends. Practice tough love.
A child should use www.kiddles.co not Google for research, kiddle is a child specific search engine supported by Google, it prevents the appearance of things that are not suitable for a child.  Set parental control on gadgets and devices...

Recommendation:
Love a child unconditionally 
Give a child another chance
Be the kind of parent you would have a child become
Get the negative tag off a child with positive seeds (declaration and affirmation).
Meet a child's needs
Decipline a child with love

This is my take!

It's totally okay if you are of a contrary view.

Kindly air your view...
