Do you tell bedtime stories to your kids?

Answer 1

I visit my grandchildren every night and tell them stories, I make them up, fantastical, magical adventures that involve them. I try to weave a little about being misunderstood sometimes but things working out for the best, I try to point them into a direction of being altruistic. I can hold a room full of naughty kids in silence if I promise them a story. My Dad did the same for me and I did for both my daughters. I can blackmail them into doing anything with the promise of a story.

Answer 2

When and if I do have children, some day, I'll definitely tell them bedtime stories. It's just another chance to bond with your kids, it'' create memories that'll last them a life time, shows them that you do care, love them, and are paying attention. Maybe they won't realize that all in a young age, but it'll stick with them and affect them in one way or another .

not only that, but it can give you a chance to get to know your child more as well, because the stories with more than likely generate conversation as well.

Answer 3

I guess you question refers to muslims only. As a person who does not believe in Mohammad and his teachings, I would not share anything about islam. If forced to, I would tell them that this religion comes from the devil and Mohammad was the most evil man on this earth. And I would show the verses of the quran/writings of the hadiths and the actions of Mohammad's criminal and evil ways from history to prove all this. The moral of my story would be to stay far away from islam and its true followers, but not the diluted ones who think that islam means peace for they have never read nor understood their quran.

Answer 5

No, I tell my children life experiences I have endured in away that it may help them through this life with a better out look the stories I tell are more defined because my son ask lots of questions its good in a way because when you read a book they usually get that but to tell a story usually is followed by question which expands their minds. It helps you also because you know where you were going with the story and the point yo were trying to make.

Answer 6

All the tijme. My 6-y/o with Global Developmental Delay (who can't read yet and has speech difficulty) loves it. But he doesn't want me to read what's written in the book. He wants to hear what the pictures depict and he changes the names of the characters with his name (of course, he's always the hero), his Special Ed classmates, his cousins or us.
