When I talk to dads who come to iKidz, the main problem that everyone encounters at home is the disobedience of their children.
This is usually associated with the performance of homework, to discipline around order, to cleaning, the schedules, manners, etc.
It is clear that no one wants a disobedient child, constantly questioning what his parents ask him to do, but we don't want “baby boy” children either, that they always do everything without question, that they do not question anything and that they are not able to make their own decisions, because tomorrow this attitude towards life will be counterproductive.
Get a child to obey us and at the same time listen to their initiatives, your tastes and opinions is a difficult point to find. So in today's post, I leave you 10 keys to trying to reach this point.
