One of the most important things you can teach your child is respect. Keep in mind that respect is not the same as obedience. Children might obey because they are afraid. If they respect you, they will obey because they know you want whats best for them. The best way to teach respect is to show respect. When a child experiences respect, they know what it feels like and begin to understand how important it is. Keep in mind the saying Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Respect is an attitude. Being respectful helps a child succeed in life. If children dont have respect for peers, authority, or themselves, its almost impossible for them to succeed. A respectful child takes care of belongings and responsibilities, and a respectful child gets along with peers. Schools teach children about respect, but parents have the most influence on how respectful children become. Until children show respect at home, its unlikely they will show it anywhere else. How can you show respect to your child?Be honest If you do something wrong, admit it and apologize.Be positive Dont embarrass, insult or make fun of your child. Compliment them. Be Trusting Let your child make choices and take responsibility. Be fair Listen to your childs side of the story before reaching a conclusion. Be polite Use please and thank you. Knock before entering your childs room. Be reliable Keep promises. Show your child that you mean what you say. Be a good listener Give your child your full attention.Children learn from everything we say and do. Make sure that you are modeling respectful behavior. Some of things you can do are: Obey laws Follow rules.Be caring Show concern for people, animals and the environment.Avoid poor role models When you see examples of disrespect, discuss them. When you set rules at home, explain to your child why the rule is important. For instance, if the rule is No TV between 4:00 and 6:00 it is because this is homework time and homework is important to keep grades up in school. Teach your child to respect themselves. Self-respect is one of the most important forms of respect. Once we respect ourselves, it is easier to respect others. Your opinion means a lot to your child. If you believe your child can succeed, they will believe they can as well. Build their independence. Give them responsibilities as soon as they can handle them. Help them set and achieve goals. Their self-respect will skyrocket when they see themselves achieving those goals. Encourage honesty. Let your child know that they may be able to fool some people, but they cant fool themselves. There is no pride in stealing, cheating, or lying. Most importantly, show love! Say I love you often and give plenty of hugs and kisses. If your child makes a mistake, remind them that they are still loved. Age affects childrens respect. Children and adults deserve respect at every age. Here is a guideline based on age: Babies They are too young to show respect but when you meet their needs, they learn to trust you. This helps as they get older because respect for authority is based on trust. Toddlers They are old enough to learn to say please and thank you. Preschoolers This is a good time to teach rules and consequences. Elementary age They show the most respect for adults who make fair rules. It helps to let them have a say in the rules that they are expected to follow. Middle and High Schoolers Allow them to show independence, such as clothing or hairstyles, but make sure you have guidelines. They will appreciate the respect you are showing them. We respect you and the incredible job that you have, being a parent. Have a great day!Steve McChesney
