How Often Do You Advise Your Boys

How often do you advise your boys?

This question falls under the self-examination category Response not needed, but rather you should have a reflection on how you have been parenting.

Or should we say when last did you advise your boys?

Don’t be that parent who only dishes out words of wisdom and advises for their boys when they have done something wrong. Don’t be that parent that only creates time for conversation because the child has just misbehaved.

When you do that they most probably take that advice as your reaction to the incident at hand. They may also feel you are exaggerating. 21st-century parents need to be proactive in this regard. Your boy(s) needs guidance and counsel.

They need wisdom to navigate through life.

Advise them against things they have not done

Advise them about things you have observed they have little or no knowledge about

Advise them when they are well behaved

Advise them on your past errors and mistake and teach them the lessons you learnt from them

Advise them on crucial life issues. If all you do is shout and scream instructions every single time, if you hardly ever have a tete-a-tete time, if you don’t seem accessible as a parent, I don’t think you deserve to complain when they misbehave.

Dear Parents, please let us act accordingly, let us do our bit. A child not trained should not be blamed.

Happy Parenting.
