Kids Needs Some Space Too

Kids growing into the point of independence can sometimes be so demanding, and a high level of wisdom is required to guide them through this stage. As a mother I have watched my kids from the days of total dependence on me; that is the time that they know nothing, and at that time what they can just do is to cry when they are not comfortable with a thing. They cannot even say what is really wrong with them.

At this point I am just left with the option of guessing through it all.When it becomes so overwhelming, I resort to seeking medical attention. As a novice mommy, what I get most of the time is advice from other mothers, and at times the advice works a little, but I just have to learn from my own experience and all that. Now, seeing them grow into the point when they learn how to do a few things for themselves, and at times they just want to do things by themselves, if care is not taken, we just feel they are just still that little helpless soul they are, and we want to say and do all for them.

Over time, I just have to learn to strike a good balance as one who still has growing children and still encourages them to do things themselves, as I know that will help them in no little way as they advance in age. As everyone needs privacy, kids do too. They need to be given some time to think too. Being overprotective of the kids makes them grow with this dependency mentality. They do not get to have a mind of their own, and they are getting dependent on their kids for everything they have to do. I know of a kid that was trained in that way, and presently he is in his teenage years.

This young child wants to do things his own way, and at the same time, he does what is wrong because he was trained to depend on his parents for all he does.Training kids with this dependency mentality makes it so that they can only look for what to eat and lag when it has to do with real-life issues.Practically, I have begun training my kids on how to be responsible for little things within their level, and as time progresses, I will keep improving as I allow them to make their choice and stay to guide them through.

Approaching the teenage years in most cases can be so demanding, and at that age many kids feel they have arrived and need to do things the way they wish to do them, and that can be very demanding. In most cases a child who has a weak childhood will most likely have a distorted teenagehood and always feel that he is not being allowed to do things the way he feels, and in most cases he is wrong in what he wants to do. Before this kind of child will balance up, it may be too late for him or her. Thank you so much for good reading. See you next time.
