I don't want to spend time with my kids

The biggest gift that you can give to your children will not be your home or your bank account. The greatest gift that you can give to your children is your time.

Parents today are so busy with work and school that there is no more time to share with their children.

The world tells us when we should be mothers and how many children we should have but it tells us that taking care of children is wasting our time and that only rich people are happy. So, we see parents working 16 hours a day to achieve that coveted happiness; meanwhile, there is a son alone at home with a desire to talk.

Your child does not need you to stop working and spend 24 hours a day, but he does need a little quality of time where he can tell you about his friends, his favorite shows, and those important things in life.

Having family time keeps your children away from bad decisions. According to studies, the ladies who remain virgins until marriage have had excellent communication with their mothers and a very good relationship with their father.

Eating together as a family is a wise habit that prevents your children from pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and drugs. Children who eat as a family every day are ashamed to make bad decisions and disappoint their parents.

Healthy environment for a girl

Unlike boys, girls have innate observation skills, including the ability to recognize tones in their voices. For example, when you breastfeed a girl and she bites you, you will immediately make an expression of pain. The girl will then hardly repeat it again. On the other hand, the little boy will be less able to recognize his mother's displeasure and will ignore it. By understanding this, it is important to emphasize that girls are more susceptible to their environment and more observant. That is why in times of financial stress or marital conflict the most affected will always be the girls. Girls always observe even those small steps that we believe as parents that they did not observe. Just take heed. . . References: Dobson, J., Dr. (2010). Bringing up girls (Building a family legacy).

How can I get my child to eat

That our child does not want to eat is one of the biggest concerns that parents face during the growth of our children. When children reach the age of 2 years, it is normal that they become too selective at mealtime. What used to be delicious today is simply "yucky". Parents should not be so concerned about this period. Most children consume what is necessary for their growth. But if you still feel concerned about this issue, here I will share with you short methods to motivate your child to eat. 1. Reward your child when he decides to eat something healthy. In one study (Cooke et al., 2011), when children received a reward after trying a vegetable, consumption of this vegetable increased six times and persisted for approximately 3 months even when they no longer received rewards. Examples of rewards could be stickers, paper flowers or small paper figures, such as Origami. 2. Show your children photos of children of the same age eating healthy food. Children tend to im...

Recognizing child predators

According to Coon & Mitterer (2010), Most child molesters are married and a third of them are parents. In cases of pedophilia, the offender is a close friend or relative of the child (Abel Wiegel & Osborn, 2007.) Most sexual abusers are passive and religious. They consume child pornography and as children were also victims of or witnesses to sexual abuse. According to studies practiced by Elliot, Browne, & Kilcoyne(1995), these are some tactics used by child molesters: 1. Most of them act alone. 2. Most abuse takes place in the abuser's home. 3. Many abusers gain access to the child through child care. 4. Children frequently receive toys, candy, games, or prizes from the abuser. 5. The abuser tries to hook the child into his sexual trap through open sex talks or by showing explicit images of it. 6. The abuser then uses threats, force, and anger to gain complicity with the child and thus keep him silent and subdued. Coon, D., & Mitterer, J.O. (2016). ...
