False and true. Parenting is a difficult concept because the mind and needs of a young child are very delicate. I have been taking several different Child Development classes for four years now and they give you strategies and suggestions to handle children, and all different classes agree on the same techniques. At each age, and sometimes even month, a child has physical needs that are required. Which the average parent can come to understand. But, a childs' emotional development is one that the average parent has a difficult time understanding. There is such a thing as cycle of abuse, including emotional abuse, that parents will continue with their children and may not even notice it or may not even notice it's wrong. Not only is there a cycle for abuse, but there's cycle of behavior. However your parents raised you is going to effect how you raise your children. This is the sad part, MOST parents have had poor parenting skills and it results in their children obtaining poor parenting skills. Unless one can come to understand the wrong doing of their parents and control it in due time. With that being said, like I mentioned there are strategies and techniques for good parenting skills. & they change for every age/month. The basics to emotional development are listening, spending time, talking, and giving appropriate discipline to your child. Here is where parenting can go wrong, yelling, giving inappropriate discipline to your child, neglecting, and abusing. The area I see as most differenced is disciplining a child. Below age three, a child should not be disciplined. At the age of three a child can now come to understand their own behavior. Good behavior should be praised. Bad behavior should be disciplined appropriately. This can mean consequences such as the time out chair, but bad behavior should ALWAYS be talked about. So, they can understand WHY it was wrong. Parenting tends to differentiate here. Inappropriate discipline is very common. A child should NEVER be screamed at, made felt guilty by their behavior, physically hit, or receive consequences that are unfair. Being physically hit is a common mistake made by parents. This only teaches them to physically hit others. They will not learn the mistakes of their behavior, they will learn to fear you. Parenting can differentiate in some ways but there is a guideline to parenting skills and techniques that all parents should follow.
