How to educate children to learn well

Teach your child in the art of life and at the same time learn about who he/she is. Parenting begins the moment a child is born. Whether you are a little or a lot involved in raising the child, the guidelines are the same with consistency being the key to making it a part of the child's character. How active your are in your child's life reveals what kind of parent you are. Even a deadbeat parent is being a parent, just not a good one, and there is that part in a child that knows it as neglect.

Being a parent is a state of mind. It is like being a mentor with the honor of exalted emotional attachment to a part of you that is apart from you. In being a parent we guide our children in learning:

• About natural and logical consequences to their actions
• About our language, values, and customs
• About personal responsibility
• About their likes and dislikes
• About their natural talents and how to develop them
• How their mind and body works along with the things that affect them, i.e., emotions, drugs 
• How to create a good situation out of a bad choice
• How to discern fantasy from reality, especially with violent and gory video games
• How to handle grief in loss
• How to handle peer pressure
• How to love themselves
• How to recognize their options and make right choices
• How to set personal boundaries
• How to temper strong emotions, especially in the face of raging hormones
