Guideline # 7 for Positive Parenting
Praise Your Children
This one has a HUGE impact. Praise your children for the things they do well, for the improvements and efforts they make, and encourage them to pursue their interests. Do what you can to make sure your children are surrounded by people who praise, including older siblings, relatives, educators, and friends.
Tell your kids:
“Good job”
“You are a great…”
“You are so kind.”
“I trust you.”
“I love you.”
“I like you”
“I’m proud of you”
“You make me happy”
“You are so good at…”
…and other positive things regularly. Don’t forget hugs and kisses too!
Remember, there doesn’t even have to be a specific reason to share praise. Share it liberally just because you love them.
