RE: TEACHING YOUR CHILDREN TO SAY "NO"
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I think decision making for children comes with growth and responsibility. In the early stage of a child, he/she is naive to allot of things that only the parents can teach him or her. A child could want to make a decision that will cost him or her their future, we've seen such in many scenarios. So what if the child persist they don't want to do that thing you as the parent saw it is best for them, they want to do the contrary because we've given them the right to decision making at their age...
I think in cases like this, one person's decision must have to override the other, and it's definitely not the child's I guess..

Absolutely, you are right. Though the area I'm looking at is parents teaching their children to be able to say No to somethings. Many or should I say some parents trained their children to be obedience to elders forgetting to teach them areas where they need to say NO to somethings coming from elders or peers. Saying no to things like: Molestation which will give such child a long time trauma, child abuse,peer pressure et-al
Now, my note focus on educating parents on ways or how they can teach their children to say No. If you understand my point, you will agree with me that a child has right to say No to abuse or wrong doing coming from whoever and when taught by his/ her parent, it will really save the child. Thank you @ovey10 for your wonderful comment sir.🙏💖
