Children these days are very much exposed to several things. Some of these things may turn out to harm them. For instance Internet has all sorts of information. Some of the videos that are found on websites such as YouTube.com may not be good for kids to view. There are web sites that contain adult content.
As a parent what are you able to do to protect your children from accessing such internet sites? Family forums do discuss about parenting and the challenges that parents do face in bringing up their children so as they become helpful people in society.
Kids always imitate grown up folks. They try carrying themselves like grown-ups and dressing like celebs. Small girls aged between 10 years to 15 years will start to apply make ups so that they look stunning just like other girls do. On the process of doing this they may harm their bodies particularly if they use make ups that have chemicals which react.
Kids also have easy access to the TV. Some of the programs that are aired on the T. V. are not good for children. Parents know that such programs are not good but you will find some parents watching them with their kids. As a parent it's better not to allow small kids to observe programs that will influence their personality in a negative way.
You will admit that children who are in their teenage stage spend most of their time texting and chatting on cell phones. I heard some parents complaining on how their teen children use their cell phones. They spend the majority of their time texting, posting content on their facebook wall and tweeting on twitter website. If kids use Internet enabled cellphones they may access bad pictures. Parents should monitor their kids when they use such cell phones. They should also advice their teenagers not to spend a lot of time on their mobiles because this will affect their performance in school.
Parents should warn their kids about Internet predators. There are teens who have fallen in the hands of the internet predators. They have been abused by them and some have been murdered after they are abused. It is not a girl child that is targeted by Internet predators but also a boy child.
Some parents are warned by their neighbors what their kids are up to when they are not around. Parents who really love their children will find out if the claims made by neighbors are true, and if it turns to be true, they'll punish their children.
Spending enough time with your children is a good thing to do. Some parents barely find time to spend with their kids. If you are such a parent you should find time to spend with your children so that you know what they are up to and also advice them. Be open and friendly to your children always.
