How to Become a Good Parent

Now, before thinking this is a bunch of idiotic nonsense due to the previous sentence, please read on.

Firstly if your having issues with a your child it is probably the lack of communications between you two, and that is due to a lack of trust from you're your kid, meaning that your kid is somewhat scared of having an open discussion with you. Now in this article I will give some tips on how to help gain trust of your child.

Now when both parents live in the same house it tends to be easier because the effort is divided in 2, that's what life as a couple is about after all.

Father:

Now the best part of being a father is that your kid looks up to you and is proud of saying to everyone "Hey look over there that"s my dad.' Well some fathers don't experience that because of many issues due to the lack of trust from the child. Here's how you can fix this easily. In order for your kid to look up to you got to share your past experiences with them. Talk about your achievements, like a sport you played when you were young.

Also tell them the naughty stuff you did like egging a teachers house I'm sure most of us did something like that no? Make sure you don't encourage them to do so. Now a good way to get to your kid is taking them fishing. It's a classic, you get to spend time away from your troubles and you have time to relax and have discussions.

Personally I did spent time with father fishing and hunting but I was at young age and well and it didn't matter much at the time but now since my parents divorced and I wasn't able to even look at my dad in the eyes. Now is when I cherish those past moments. The main point is spending time with your kid and sharing your experiences with them is a good way to get a trusty bond between you two. Now here's an important thing all fathers should teach their kids, its crucial for their character building.

You need to help them learn self confidence, to defend themselves physically, to defend their beliefs and how to solve problems. It might seem like a lot but its easy and you got lots of time to put this in action. Now I won't put suggestions for this because it can become controversial between beliefs and all that so I don't want to end up being the cause of world war 3. 

Mothers:

Mothers are an important part of a child's life, just look at animals you rarely males alone taking care of their young it's mostly mothers. Now back to the main point, mothers are there to balance out things and to correct the many errors of the father. (I'm not being sexist it's just how things are.)

Now while the father teaches the child to be tough, to stand up for themselves and to become a leader and so on, the mother teaches to be kind, to solve problems usually in the most right way and to express your feelings. Now Mothers usually have it easier when it comes to trust with their child that's simple its because of motherly instinct. Mothers have this sort of bond with their child since the moment it started to develop within her, which makes the kids more able to express themselves because it seems like your mother knows you more than you do.

One thing is an inconvenience for male teens they think that expressing themselves is more feminine, well it isn't and that's what you mothers should try and show them. Once they realize that you should be able to know almost all those hidden secrets from your kid. Giving advice to your kids on relationships when they are able to understand is a good way to make them ready for the day they start their own lives.

I hope this helps you in some way well as far as I know 3 of my best friend's parents now have a better life with their kids due to these helpful notes.

Now this might be shocking to some of you but I am only a 16 year old boy, my life so far people would consider it tragic but all the bad things I have experienced made me stronger and I'm sort of glad it happened that way because now I realize things that most people would only learn when its too late. If you still think this is a bunch of nonsense because of the first sentence in this article or the fact that I'm only 16, then you my friend, are exactly one of those people I just mentioned in this last paragraph.

Thank you for reading this and here's my favorite saying: What doesn't kill a man only makes him stronger.
