5 Myths of Childrearing

04 Feb 2011 by

How you educate or care for your children? You must know in advance what impact the merits of the children, if you get the patterns of parenting as you did. Many assumptions about parenting that turns out not to be used as the handle again. Here are five examples:

1. About lying.
Threaten children with punishment when he was lying, would make him reveal the truth.
This myth is no more relavan. This will only make your baby look at matters in a selfish concept. So the best way to prevent this lie is to say, “I would love if you want to tell the truth.” Children will learn that there are other reasons for not lying. And this is the way to start.

2. About self confidence.
Praising the child will improve her confidence.
Always state that your child smarter every time he showed his work is also not always good. You indicate that any errors that have the potential to embarrass himself to be avoided. Little also will stop trying everything, even though it is not so difficult. Further, your actions will send a message that the child’s efforts are not important as long as he is smart. Praise effort, not a figure of the child.

3. About intelligence. A talent of child will be seen before the age of 5 years.
This myth is absolutely not true because many children above 5 years of the new show talent.

4. Cartoons that aired on television it must be good for their age.
Cartoons are childish impression, but not necessarily good for them. You might think that a movie that shows mutual sharing and caring attitude will not make them become aggressive, compared to when they watch violent movies. However, children are very young are often not able to capture the lessons to be conveyed at the end of the film. Thus, all conflicts that show bad behavior not addressed the child as something to be changed, but rather as instruction on how to behave.

5. As a parent, you must ensure there is no tolerance at all about the acts of bullying, including taunting, calling it by a bad call, and leave him.
Everyone must know that bullying can give a very bad influence, even deadly. But ridiculing or ignoring other children in the playground is part of a normal (or even pleasant) of the process he developed. If the child being ridiculed, he can certainly learn how to deflect or overcome them.

5 Myths of Infant Brain Development

19 Oct 2010 by

Age 0-3 years are golden period infant brain development. Therefore, parents need to do a variety of brain stimulation to develop intelligence, whether in terms of nutrition or stimulation in the form of communication, swabs, views, or a hug to a child. In addition, there is also stimulation obtained from music, reading, or toys. True? What is the last type of stimulation is only a myth?

Dr. John Medina, a molecular biologist at the University of Washington School of Medicine and author of Brain Rules: 12 Principles for Surviving and Thriving at Work, Home and School, revealed a number of brain stimulation that is not entirely correct.

Some common myths circulating in the community:
1. Play Mozart to babies in the womb could increase its future ability of Mathematics.
Fact: The baby is only going to remember something after their birth. Similarly, Mozart’s music. Your baby will remember them after their birth, nor with anything that he listen to, smell, or feel in the womb. If you want your child has a value of Math is good enough, you can teach mastery in the early years.

2. Providing language learning DVD for infants and children can improve their language skills.
Fact: Some DVDs can actually reduce precisely language vocabulary toddler. It is true that many words you use when talking to babies could increase his vocabulary and IQ. However, the words must come from you, his mother, who asked her to speak from time to time.

3. To improve brain power, children can be taught French from the age of 3 years, playing with toys that stimulate the brain, and various educational DVD.
Fact: The biggest technology in improving a child’s brain is with a plain cardboard box, a box of colored pencils, and two hours of time spent. While television is the worst way to stimulate the brain.

4. Telling children that they are smart to increase her confidence.
Fact: Apparently, if always touted that they are smart, the child will be reluctant to do something challenging. To encourage children to someday be a student or students who are intelligent, praise his efforts in achieving these accomplishments.

5. The children can find happiness in his own way.
Fact: The biggest criteria of happiness is having friends. How do you teach a child to gain and maintain friendships? This would indicate that the child also has the ability to decipher nonverbal communication. Studying a musical instrument can enhance this capability by 50 percent. While the way that can impair the ability of these was to send SMS.
