Judging the Children

Judging the children is a difficult task and some times leads parents to wrong conclusions. A good judgement of children will do lot of good to the kids and a bad judgement becomes a bane for them. Proper judgement gives a fair chance to the parents to take right decisions.

From childhood to teenage children character keeps changing. It varies from one year to another year. So parents can not judge their children basing on one or two years experience or observation. In the early childhood parents should have a open mind and observations should be objective. Depending on one manner did not help to judge the children.

Children did not have a personality in the early childhood. Some times they look like good and some times bad. At a certain age they look like clever and at an another stage they look like fools. Some times they would be happy and some times sad.

So the image of the children in the eyes of parents, teachers and others keeps changing. To come to a certain conclusion about a child's personality, parents need to have patience. In fact teenage is the right time to judge the children. Because by that time their character starts to develop. By that time their body will undergo biological changes and their preferences change.

Till they become men, children keep changing their attitudes toward various things. Some times they show interest in certain colors and after change it. Even in the case of food also children change their attitude. Some like spicy, baked and fried food and some times they dislike the same food items.

From the teenage they will develop ambitions and set goals for their life. They start working in that direction and that will form their character. If a kid wants to become an academic scholar they show interest in reading various books. Those want to become sportsmen will spend more time on their respective sport. Like wise children start working on their interests in the early teenage. In this age they will have lot of enthusiasm and show vigour in excelling in their respective activity.

So this age will give proper indications about their attitude. Here parents can come to an understanding about the personality of the children. Usually this personality styas for life.

At this stage parents have to understand the interests and find out whether the children are really interested in their respective fields or not. If a child is really interested in certain activity that leads to a good life, parents should encourage the children.

This stage is also quite vulnerable and the children are tend to become addictive to bad habits. Bad habits like smoking, watching porn movies, showing much interest in meeting the girls, dating and others will attract and the teenagers become addictive to them.

So the parents should observe the kids' activities and find out whether they are hiding some thing. If a boy or girl preferring to stay in their rooms for lot of time behind the closed doors, parents should smell the rat. It is advisable to check their rooms and find out whether they are keeping unwanted material in their rooms.

If they find anything that is dangerous, parents should warn children to avoid them. Here parents have to be cautious and patience. Severe punishments will not do good. Children should be persuaded in a consistent and mild manner to give up bad habits. Parents should counsel children about the consequences of bad habits and make the children to understand them.
