Speaking as someone who has been trying to get prego for over 7 years. It drives me crazy when I see someone yell at their child because they are sick and need a little extra attention or need to go to the bathroom and that just wasn't in your plans. (I have been told by parents that I confront about the bathroom thing that they don't really have to go. They just want to play. I say how do you know unless you are them. It is not good for them to hold it for a long time.) I know there are days that are more stressful then others but this is no reason to take it out on your child. I think sometimes people forget what it is like to be a child. To not understand what is going on around you and to blame yourself for everything. Any time anything goes wrong they blame them selves. The stress of not having a real voice.
Now I am not of the school of don't ever spank for any reason but at the same time there is no need to beat them within an inch of their lives because they forgot to close the front door again. It just kills me when I hear stories of abuse of any kind towards a child. There is no reason for it. The only people who could do such a thing are monsters.
As, soon as you had that child you should decide that their needs are more important than yours. As such, If they need to be in bed at a certain time to get up for school the next day and be awake and actually able to work, but your really want to do something that will keep them up half the night. if you don't have a babysitter. Guess what? You shouldn't do it. or if you are a single parent and you want to date that does not meen you should introduce your child to every new conquest for them to only lose them if it doesn't work out. Or worse yet, If you just met someone and you don't know them to well. NEVER leave your child with them alone. Oh and That doesn't mean you just met them and you feel like you've known them your whole life. You still just met them. Even if you've known someone your whole lives, You never really 100% know anyone. Your child diserves better than that. There is a reason that Roughly 33% of girls and 14% of boys are molested before the age of 18. And that's just the reported ones. It's because people are to trusting with there chilren and the children haven't been tought that no one has the right to touch you in certain areas. I know it isn't the easiest conversation to have with a young child and you shouldn't have to have it but take it from a victim of child molestation. You would much rather have that conversation then find out someone you knew and trusted has done the unthinkable act to your child. They can't be affraid to talk to you about what has happened. That is how the person that has done it gets their power. They make them affraid. I know I went off a little about this but it is very important to me.
Please just listen, teach, love and nurture your children and above all else protect them.
