Failure is inevitable!

Teach your kids to take\accept “NO” for an answer.Its important we keep the authority with us and set limits for them in a structured manner.If your child reacts in a negative way for a NO that means so far you have been watering to the wrong behaviour that it has grown so much.Setting limits also gets discipline in the house.They may throw fit to accept and if that time you flare up they will consider you on the same level and act more stubborn.Sometimes its good to distract them,take them away to a different room and then make them understand your point.Its important to explain to them why they are being asked to do so..The parent child relationship needs to be there in their childhood and growing years,to an extent even in their teens.You can become friends gradually with them.You don’t need to be a Hitler you can be friendly.The earlier you set the goals in their life it’s easy,as time passes by it gets tougher.Reward your child with good gifts and not bribes.A disappointment caused by our NO can actually benefit them in the long run,don’t forget to teach them get over it.Coping with failure is not easy ,mind is the gadget they need to be taught how to switch off from the failure and think towards achieving it the next time.A bare hug,encouraging words helps.Kids get upset over a friend not attending their party – for them sometimes to handle this is tough…this is just one instance,I am sure you have many to share…Its important they fail as kids be it in academics or sport, earlier they learn to handle it the better…Failure is inevitable…
