One of the most difficult roles you have to play is that of a parent. Parenting does not come naturally to all of us. Some first time parents have to strive and struggle to understand what their babies need. However, there are also parents who are perceptive and easily understand the meaning of the noises their babies make. They are self-sufficient parents who do not need help from anyone else for raising their kids. If you too want to be a self-sufficient parent then you must start using your common sense for giving a good upbringing to your kids.
Do not blame yourself for not being self-sufficient as a parent. You are probably inexperienced and still adjusting to the changes that the baby has brought. Parenting can be very tiring. Taking care of a newborn is a very hectic job. Most new parents do not get much sleep at night and have to toil all day.
Such busy routines can make you unmindful. Always remember that to be a good parent you must take care of yourself. Parents should have good understanding between them and take turns to care for the baby. This way, both parents will get some rest and be able to take better care of their child.
Parents who really want to improve their parenting style should try CSP or Common Sense Parenting. This is an easy to apply, strategic parenting method based on a set of skills and perception.
Common Sense Parenting helps you set some disciplinary rules for the kids and tackle difficult situations in an extremely efficient manner. CSP promotes a healthy parent child relationship but you must understand your child completely for that.
Use common sense driven responses for every misdeed they commit. Teach them right from wrong by setting yourself as example. Children often act as their elders. Do not be rude or lie in front of your kids.
Whenever they maintain decorum and behave appropriately, snuggle them or give them a little treat. This way you can teach them how to behave and how to win hearts. You will have to develop some skills for influencing the behavior of your children positively.
Summary:
Parenting may seem to be a difficult task but you can improve your parenting techniques by applying common sense. Common Sense Parenting is an effective method that can help you understand the requirements of your kids and instill good habits in them.
