Parenting the Child or “childing” the parent

It is no secret that children are a product of their environment, and the way they are raised can have a profound impact on their behavior and mental health. Negligent parenting can lead to a variety of behavioral issues in children, from low self-esteem to aggression. It is important for parents to be aware of the effects of their parenting style on their children and to take steps to ensure their children are receiving the love and guidance they need.

Negligent parenting is a serious issue that affects millions of children and families around the world. It is important to understand the potential causes of negligent parenting in order to address this issue and help families in need.

One of the most common causes of negligent parenting is financial instability. When parents are unable to provide for their families, they may not be able to provide the necessary care for their children. This can lead to neglect, as parents may not be able to afford basic necessities such as food, clothing, or medical care. Additionally, parents may be too busy working multiple jobs in order to make ends meet, leaving little time to spend with their children.

Another potential cause of negligent parenting is mental health issues. Parents who suffer from depression, anxiety, or other mental health issues may not be able to provide the necessary care for their children. This can lead to neglect, as parents may not be able to provide the necessary emotional support or guidance for their children.

Negligent parenting can take many forms, such as not providing enough attention, not setting clear boundaries, or not providing emotional support. When children are not given the attention they need, they may become withdrawn or act out in order to get attention. Without clear boundaries, children may lack the guidance they need to make good decisions. And without emotional support, children may feel isolated and unable to express their feelings. All of these can lead to behavioral issues in children.

  2. Most of the behavioural issues experienced in teenagers and even in adulthood can be traced back to parenting. our children are exposed to soo much knowledge out there and the ignorant parent is left helpless. Parents need a lot of training and retraining on how to rain the 21st century child else we will continue to host unpatented children in our houses. And such is a ticking time bomb

    1. It is true parents have a big responsibility to nurture and train their children. Proverbs 22:6 “train a child the way he should go and when fully grown will never depart away from it”. Who to train? Parent. Children trust their more than any other person. So as parents walk your talk to bring up disciplined and God fearing children.The parents of Israelites were told to impress the law of the lord on their children as they walk on on the road and as they sit down. Meaning we need to create time for our children.
