Little Hands, Big Lessons: How a Child Learns Life at Home

A very lovely day, a beautiful day. It was evening. My daughter and I, who are just two years old, are making bread together with my daughter. You can see in the pictures that my daughter is lighting the fire and I am making bread on a large griddle. The father and daughter are baking these breads together. My daughter is just two years old and at the age of two she has learned to work, to help with household chores and to help her mother and in other tasks. So these little hands, these lovely hands, these beautiful little ones, my lovely little doll is now doing household chores at this young age. We love her very much. We are in love with her. You can see how beautifully she has a stick in her hand and with this stick she is lighting the fire and with the help of this stick she is putting the wood under the griddle and then the fire is burning like this and I am making bread. I am not good at making bread, but my daughter told me that I will make a small one for her. I should bake bread and give it to her because she does everything she sees her mother do with great love and sincerity, thus she repeats everything her parents do in her house.

This little hand, this cute little doll, whatever housework she does, there is a sincerity, a love, a passion hidden in it. She cannot even speak properly yet, she cannot even utter these complete words yet, but from now on she has started helping her parents in their work, so I understand and I want to write here that children learn a lot from their parents and if parents do whatever work, whatever movements they do in their house, whatever activities they do, then the children are watching these activities. If the parents' style of speaking to each other is like that of a husband and wife, their children will also adopt the same style and the kind of atmosphere in the house, the kind of atmosphere in the house, whatever children see with their own eyes at a young age, they follow the same thing. So I want to write here that if you and I all want to give our children a good character, want to make them moral people, want to make them honest, want to give them a better future and improve their If we want to guide our children towards the right path, then first of all, it is our duty as parents to improve our own ways and habits so that when our children see our numbers, our actions, our habits, then their habits will also improve. If they see or hear us lying, cheating, taking bribes, or swearing, then these same qualities will develop in them. We should improve our character and habits so that our children can become better and better people by watching us.

These pictures that you are seeing are not pictures but a complete sketch, a complete awareness. This has also dawned on me because I am also seeing my daughter helping me light the fire and this is a difficult task that she is doing but how did she learn this? I did not tell her that this is how you light the fire, this is how you have to light the fire under the pan. Rather, she has seen her mother doing this work. Whenever her mother cooks bread, then she sees how her mother lights the fire while cooking bread and uses a big stick to fan the fire like a fire. So this girl has seen this scene many times. This scene was in her eyes, it was in her mind. So today she has been able to light the fire now. So I want to say one thing here that whatever we say, whatever we do at home, whatever we do, if we work together with love and affection, if we work with courtesy. We will say that if we behave with people with good manners and good manners, then our children will also learn the same things that we behave with others. So what I want to say is that sometimes we get very worried about our children and we think that our children are getting worse, their numbers, their way of speaking, all this is getting worse, but we do not pay attention to why our children are getting worse, why are our children's numbers getting worse? Maybe it is not our own fault in this. So what I will say is that we have to look at our habits. As fathers, as elder brothers, and as elders in the family, we have to see all this because the habits that we have, the habits that we have, will be passed on to our children. So if our children are getting worse, their way of speaking is not right, their behavior is not right, then as fathers and elder brothers, we have to see all this, whether these habits are not within us that our children are adopting.

So through this writing, I only want to say what I saw, what I felt, I can only describe it here, I can write it here, I can describe it in words, so I will say that we should give our children a good society, you give your children a good environment. By good environment, I only mean that if our house is small or big, we are rich or poor, the house in which we live within our family is our society and our children will learn from this society and later on, when we go to a big society and a big environment, then when we use good words in our house, do not fight, do not quarrel, do not call each other by wrong words, then our children will also not learn these things. Our children will learn something that we ourselves as fathers will do in our house. If a father abuses at home, uses wrong words, abuses or cheats at home, lies, his habits are such that those are wrong habits, then the children around us will also learn these things. We children are learning from us, so they will learn all this, so they will tell us the same thing, they will behave with us the same way, so we should create such a character in our home that is ideal for our children, which will help our children become good human beings. So I will say that children learn everything from their parents, from their home. If the home environment is good, the way of speaking, the way of listening, the way of walking, everything, every habit that is good, the children will adopt it, and if it is bad, the children will also adopt it. So we have to look at ourselves, so that we can cultivate the good habits that we have and eliminate the bad habits, and in the same way, our children will also become better and better members of society. So thank you all very much and you have to tell me how much you agree with me on this, thank you all very much.
