How do you raise a loving child,?

Question

You know, one that's open, kind and charismatic.

I know it can't all be disciple and stictness and harsh measures,
there's a way to do it, or do these kids just

take after kind, loving parents of good breed?

Answer 1

Show good examples, don't be harsh when they make mistakes, talk to them and explain and correct it. Learn to say no, be strict not too strict and a loving environment and good friends to learn and grow up with.

Answer 2

You can love your child and discipline him/her at the sae time. God in His word says: if you love your child don't spare the rod. It does not mean you have to hit the child with a rod, it means to discipline the child when needed, some children need more discipline than others.

To show your child how much you love him/her, you need to explain why you are disciplining him/her, be there every time your child needs you. Stop doing anything when your child is talking to you, and listen, carry on a conversation with the child. Children have so much to teach us.

And yes, they take after kind, loving parents of good breed. It's in the genes. But... no matter what their breed is, one day they could break a chain which has been carried from generations and become some times a lot better than their parents. They can be better parents to their children when they have them.

Nothing is bigger in this world than the blessing of children.

Answer 3

I have a son who just turned 18 and he is a joy. He has his moments as do most people but for the most part he is very loving, open, charismatic, respectful and caring. Wherever we go he makes a new friend. He is very friendly and charming. When he was younger he was very active. Meaning when we went out, I was forever chasing him and scolding him. Thankfully that stage passed. I think treating your child with respect and showing him or her unconditional love & acceptance is a start. I have always let my son know he is my top priority. I have always been honest with him. I do think a part of it is genetics though.

Answer 4

I would suggest reading a book called "Parenting with Love and Logic" by Foster Cline and Jim Fay. It is full of useful and very insightful ideas on bring up children. It was recommended by a family counselor.

Answer 5

Some of it is genetic. I am adopted and I am nothing like my adopted family. I am just like my bio parents who I didn't meet until I was 28 years old.
Discipline really means to teach...and it should be done with love.
Teach a child to be loving by showing love.

Answer 6

You hope the child is naturally loving and not 'difficult'. You love that child and hug him or her and never hit them, because that teaches them to hit. And you laugh and play games with them. I feel terrible when I see those parents in the store screaming at their children all through the store. Don't they know that creates a vicious cycle?

Answer 7

Children learn by example. Be the person you want them to be! And breeding has nothing to do with it. Some of the strongest leaders and most inspirational people of our time came from "poor" backgrounds.

Answer 8

if u love the child and teach just to always be nice no matter what ppl say then they will be a loving child just raise the child how u want them to be when they grow up

Answer 9

Lovingly.

The trick to discipline is consistency. Children crave borderlines and routine. If you give them that they will be happy for the most part.

Answer 10

Love, love and more love, but also they need limits that are fairly and consistently enforced with consequences when they don't do what they know they need to do. Don't lie to them and tell them they are great at something when they aren't.
