how do you show love to your own children?

Question

aged between 3 and 6 years

Answer 1

Give them your time. A child would be happier playing with you in an empty room, with a balloon or a football, than in a room full of toys shut on their own. Read to them, take them for walks, show them the world and teach them about everything they see around them. Make time when its cold outside, to sit cuddled up on the sofa watching a children's DVD they like.
Make them feel like you are interested in their life, what they did at school, who their friends are, how they are feeling . It doesn´t have to cost anything to show your children you love them.
Try to discipline them firmly but fairly, giving them an explanation why they cant have this or do that, or why you told them off. Teach them how to apologise and to recognise when they need to (my 2 year old can do this), and make sure you always make up with a cuddle after you have come to blows. Admit and apologise if you are ever wrong or go over the top with a telling off. Most of all TELL THEM regularly that you love them very much and they are very special. They understand more that we give them credit for.

Answer 2

I always make sure that I sit and talk to him when he comes home from school about his day. We sit next to each other on the sofa and sometimes he comes over for a cuddle or rests his stinky feet on my leg or just some form of contact. He always has a kiss & cuddle when he goes and when he comes back. At night we sit and read a story all together on his bed (dad included) and then have night night cuddles and kisses.
Often he'll walk past me and I'll tickle him or wink, scruffle his hair or just some general contact, and his dad is always threatening to remove his nose!
Just giving him some time that's just his so he feels important and wanted/loved seems to work.

Answer 3

I have two sons, aged 4 and 6. I kiss their necks, cheeks, eyes, ears and almost all the time manage to get a bite in as well (without using the teeth). I tickle them too. I play games with them once in awhile. Sometimes I sit and watch with them their television programs, while I cuddle them. I talk to them all the time - subjects vary from answers to their questions, behavior, how to do things, talking about the world, nature, relationships with friends, holidays - whatever comes up. I treat them with respect, at all times, even when I get upset with them. I make sure they are clean, well fed and medically checked when needed. The bottom line, I put my kids and their needs before myself.

Answer 4

Paying attention to them.

Spending quality time together.

Not preferring one over the other sibling.

Cooking food favorites on designated night. Like favorite vegetable.

Keeping a roof over their heads, rent paid,
bring in non degenerated boyfriends and family members. Keep out the bad family members.

Don't deal drugs, don't ingest the street drugs.

Keep doors locked at all times.

Let fresh air in thru window,depending on weather.

Answer 5

Cuddles

Answer 6

Every single day i tell my 2 children that they are beautiful, special, intelligent and how much i love them no matter what. I was'nt told any of this and i promised myself i would never let them feel how i felt when i was growing up, i have very loving kids.

Answer 7

kisses & cuddles & facial expressions, if you walk about looking sad & angry all the time the children won't know how to feel.
anytime i have the grumps for whatever reason my 4yr old always ask's if she has mad me sad/angry (bless).
i like to have fun with my kids as much as i can - we lie on my bed & i give them airoplane rides on my legs letting them drop onto the bed & we pretend the floor is the sea with sharks & i hang off the bed & they have to "save me" by dragging me back onto the bed, they think it's the funniest thing ever & we always end with big hugs & kisses

Answer 8

Spend time with them and play their games.
You can teach the elder but not the younger.
Only buy toys or other gifts at Christmas and
birthdays otherwise you will spoil them.

Answer 9

Are you asking me how I do, or how you do?

It's a question that's beyond definition for me, as I don't consciously think about how I show them love, I just know that in every breath, word, action and task, they know that they are loved, and I know that I love them.

Answer 10

It is easy at that age. Just tell them you love them, and each time you give them something, buy them clothes, etc., tell them you did it because you love them
