Today I want to talk about parenting. They say that having children means a lot of worries, difficulties, screaming, noise, clatter and chatter, permanent disorder and chaos ... For me kids are happiness and overwhelming joy which they bring to my life. Being the father of six children, I can state this authoritatively)
When my first child was born I really understood what it means to live for someone, love someone, be ready to give all the best for someone ... But besides tenderness and care, you should also give good breeding for your child. Here is just where the fun begins.
Someone raises their child in an atmosphere of permissiveness, someone tries to enforce their system of values to a child and someone protects fanatically their son or daughter from all life's problems.
In Israel, for instance, the most important rule is that a child can do everything that does not harm the health and does not bother others. So do not be surprised if, for example, you see a baby in one of the cafes in Haifa sitting in a child seat and chewing a piece of meat on his own. Or if you see a child in stained pants and dirty T-shirt and with snot on his cheeks in Tel Aviv. It is normal situation. In Israel children are more independent and free. Parents only protect them with their sensitive attention. But that will be that.
You must admit that sometimes over-careful Ukrainian mothers have something to learn from Israeli ones.
It is clear that all should be reasonable: freedom, rules of conduct, control ... Children should be raised in complex. Then there is a good chance that once you look at your gown-up child and realize that he became a Person.
What do you think?
