My take on kids, they feel like adults do that I should respect their smallness and give them their due rights. A baby is not a toy. Do not pick her/him from the mother against her or his will. The mother, too, should not hand over the baby without the baby’s consent. The baby is susceptible to strangers, and they cry if picked or handed over to a stranger because they feel insecure. Give your baby the right to choose a friend and freely move forward with the friend once it establishes friendship and confidence. For example, the baby’s doctor or nurse at the clinic first shows a company before he or she touched the baby, and once the baby has faith in them, they can examine the baby with minimum struggle.
The parents should learn to draw the baby’s attention by saying to the baby, “execute me, Jim or Jane,” before they begin talking. Say to the baby, excuse me; I want to change your diaper, or it is time to sleep, please stop taking or something else. The baby will be used to it and will apply the same when they grew up. Do not tell your baby no no no to stop her or him from something unpleasant because, in return, the baby will say to you no no no to anything you ask it to do since it learned it from you like a usual way to respond to anything you say to it. Many parents punish the baby when it responds no to anything a parent says to it. And the baby will not understand why he gets punished since the mother said no-no when the baby was a toddler before was it able to talk or communicate, and it learned that was the right way to respond to others.
The toddlers intensely concentrate on what they are doing, be it good or bad. Say excuse me for honoring their set mind and time to do their thing, unless there is an imminent danger like the house is burning and run over by a car. They are humans and need to be respected as you do to adults. Allow the children to finish what they are doing and do what you request them to do next. Our parents do not take it well when little kids demand from us to do something right now. We ask them to wait till our time allows us to it. Our parents have the same behavior. We command a child to do something at once without checking if they were busy occupied with their little things like watching a TV program, playing hide and seek, playing with their gadget, and trying to understand a particular item. We should consider what the child engaged and give them a minute to disengage and do what you are asking her or him to do. Do turn off TV respectively, say I give you one minute to turn off the TV. We call Wanjiku came here at once and except her come instantly. Teach a child to say, give me a minute, dad or mom, I will go and stop the parental rule of fear. Treat them like little human beings, for they are complete human beings when they are born. They have all parts of the body but small that gradually grows to prominent statures.
