Recently, parenting coach Himani shared on Instagram three things parents should never discuss in front of their children, highlighting the consequences of those words. See what they are below:
1. Talking badly about other family members
When parents speak negatively about their own family members in front of children, it undermines respect and can contribute to the development of a negative mindset about these people.
Children look to their parents as role models, and negative speech can normalize gossiping and hurtful comments.
As a result, this behavior can damage the child's relationships with his or her relatives, create tension in the family environment and harm the development of relationships throughout life.
2. fights with partners
Avoid engaging in fights with your partner in front of children, as this can cause anguish, anxiety and feelings of fear in the little ones.
In addition to disturbing stability in the family environment, this behavior can bring wounds that accompany a person for life.
Children often imitate their parents' behavior, so frequent conflict can normalize unhealthy communication patterns, reflecting damage to their future relationships.
3. Saying negative things about school and teachers
Expressing negative views about the schooland teachers in front of children can reduce their interest and motivation, and can boost bad feelings that the child already has about the school environment.
It is important to maintain a positive opinion of education and respect for teachers when talking to your child, as this directly impacts their academic engagement. If there are problems, it is important to resolve them without involving your children.
