Children are born and grow up with close relationships with family members, especially parents. Therefore, the way parents live, think, educate, and interact with others has a decisive impact on the child’s personality, psychology, behavior, and future.
Many parents believe that in order to raise an excellent child, they need to ensure that the child receives a good education, performs well in school, attends prestigious universities, and has access to a high-quality education. This belief is not wrong, but it is not enough.
So, what kind of parents can raise outstanding children?
The education of the family is one of the most important factors for young children. (Illustrative image)
A harmonious relationship between parents
A family must have a harmonious relationship between parents in order to build a healthy family bond. The relationship between husband and wife is the foundation of a family.
The best love of a father for his children is the love and care he gives to their mother. And the best love of a mother is praising and respecting the father of their children.
When loved, the mother naturally becomes feminine and gentle. When praised, the father naturally becomes a role model for the children to follow.
This harmonious family relationship gradually forms a bright and happy family atmosphere. Children growing up in such families not only have a positive outlook on life but also believe in love and express it naturally because they know that love comes naturally.
Children growing up in arguments and conflicts do not feel safe. Parents who love each other can provide their children with a sense of security, which will make them brave, learn to overcome difficulties and fears. Because children know that home will always be their support and haven.
A family that knows how to control emotions
If a family knows how to control emotions, and raises their children in a positive and gentle environment, their children will also know how to control their emotions and have good communication skills.
When faced with problems, children will use their reason to think, rather than let their emotions dominate.
Believe that if you bring negative emotions, sadness, darkness, and pessimism to your children, they will absorb those things. If you bring joy, optimism, light, and laughter to them, they will respond in kind.
A family that knows how to help children become independent
In life, we see many parents who pour their hearts and souls into taking care of their children. They are meticulous and want to arrange everything for their children, even thinking about which school and which major their children should choose.
They don’t realize that they can do things for their children, but they cannot grow up or live their lives for them. The more they want to plan their children’s future, the more their children will not be able to meet their perfect standards.

The consequence of parents repeatedly intervening in their children’s lives, doing everything for them, and designing their lives for them is what? It not only deprives children of their right to grow up, but also robs them of the opportunity to mature and become independent. It turns out that they will become “useless” and not appreciate the joy of effort in learning and life. As a result, both sides will feel unhappy and stifled.
Parents, trust your children, trust that when you let go of them, no child has ever failed to adapt, only parents can’t do it.
A family with a tradition of reading
According to surveys, parents who regularly read books and newspapers during their free time tend to have children with higher academic achievement.
Books are a valuable source of knowledge, the best investment in education, and the most profitable investment in a person’s life. If in a family, if parents enjoy reading books and everyone gathers to read books when they have free time, then gradually the child will naturally develop a love for reading, without feeling forced, but instead, they will be happy.
If a child grows up in such an ideal environment, in the child’s eyes, reading is a normal activity, just like eating or breathing.
Parents are the child’s first teachers, the people who have been with them the longest, and every gesture and word of the parents will deeply influence the child. Some people may say that they have to work hard every day to make a living, so where is the time and mood to read books? In fact, we don’t have to read many books or spend a lot of time studying, but at least in front of our children, when they are studying, we need to join them, even if it’s just looking at their books or magazines. This will make the child understand that they are not alone and that learning is a long-term commitment, that they should continue to learn throughout their lives.
