Nobody said parenting is easy, particularly when it comes to getting your child to be responsible. Responsibility and the tiny tots seems like the most unlikely combination. All you feel like doing as a parent is to be protective and do everything you can for your little one. However, the earlier kids are taught to be responsible, the more they are going to reinforce the values and rewards that come with responsibility. As they grow older, acting responsibly will seem like the natural thing, rather than you or other authority figures have to enforce strict rules and set boundaries. As children, we can all remember being compared with others and hating it! Comparing them to meet our objective of making them polite and responsible, we are putting up more harm than good. Some tasks like taking responsibility for their homework is something children take time to learn. However, sometimes we got to take a step back and for a while just take it easy on the child and ourselves. Doing things himself, gradually with time, lets the child enjoy the intrinsic feeling of satisfaction to be a responsible adult in future!!
