Most children learn by aping others, especially parents. To a great extent, I still am very much like my grandfather or my father at times. That is simply due to the fact that I started idolizing them and liking their behavior. Hence, I feel parents’ behavior is decisive in the child’s personality.
Most of the things are learnt from parents & very few are acquired by surroundings in early childhood; then it becomes a practice & practice make perfection. So parental behavior becomes a very important foundation for a child to make his strong personality
Children imitate parents’ mistakes. If the parents are alcoholics or smokers, children pick it up without any regrets as parents can’t complain about it. Similarly, good qualities and ideals.. The early idea of family, culture etc is picked by the family.. Children always feel their parents' opinions on such things is THE right opinion.
The only environment that a child is exposed to is that of the parents during its formative years. The basic character is formed then. Later education, environment and exposure only polishes its nature. A story where two sons of the same family have made different lives' for themselves. One a drunkard, who says, that all along he has seen his father do that and the other, a successful, respectful person because he never wanted to become like his father!!! For both the father is the role model!!!!
Home is the first place where children learn what is right and what is wrong and get the sense of values. Parents are first persons they come in contact with, they are their world in the initial years. So without reasoning they believe what the parents are teaching orally or by behavior will be impregnated in children s mind. They are conditioned by parents in terms of values/morals, behavior, manners etc
Yes .It always affect children in a long run..... Once the children grow.. they tend t follow what elders do especially they follow the parents.. how they talk, get angry etc.
It is like children emulate what they see. If they see good values in parents, they learn.The behaviour of the parents become a role model for children.

ReplyDeleteIt has a huge impact. If the parents jsut talk and dont even follow what they say, why would any kid bother to listen. I know I wouldnt.
