As a parent, you are a key factor when it comes to making your children have a good perception about you.
Every child believes that their parents are always right, and that’s why most of them adhere to what their parents tell them.
For this reason, parents are expected to always be at their best when it comes to how they behave in the presence of their children so that they can be good role models.
From a discovery, it has been proven that the behaviour of most children is influenced by how their parents behave.
Therefore, for your child to be great in future, minding how you behave in his or her presence matters a lot.
Here are some the behaviours that parents should never display in front of their children:
1. Cursing
Frequently using cursing words in front of your child is not a good show.
Most Kenyan women have the habit of using animal names to refer their children when they are mad, and this affects the children in various ways.
As a parent, you should be prepared because your child is likely to make mistakes any time as he or she is still growing.
Therefore, instead of cursing your child, you should employ other discipline measures to make him or her better.
2. Smoking
First and foremost, smoking should be avoided at all costs as it affects one’s health.
As a parent, since smoking is a bad habit, you should avoid doing it in the presence of your children.
This is because you don’t want to instal a wrong perception to your children that smoking is okay.
You should always be a good role model for them.
3. Lying
When raising your children, one of the virtues that should be instilled in them is, to be honest in whatever they do.
In this case, parents should be a good example, by not lying in front of their children.
This way, they will grow up knowing that lying isn’t a good thing.
