How to Educate the Children to Have Responsibility

All parents desire to raise a responsible child. It appears that a child's sense of responsibility is shaped by their upbringing. Educating children to be responsible involves what methods?

It is not an easy thing to be able to educate a child so that later he can become a responsible figure. However, it does not mean that educating children to be responsible cannot be done. Here we will give you a review!

1. Explain the meaning of responsibility

The saying says that if you don't know, you don't love. Likewise, about the issue of responsibility. It could be that the child does not carry out the responsibility because he does not know what responsibility is. Therefore, parental homework is to explain it.

Psychologists even often give recommendations to every parent to use the word responsibility in front of their little one. Children who listen, are given directions, examples, and learn to identify this word from an early age will certainly find it easier to apply it because they are very familiar with the word.

2. Give assignments according to their age

How to apply a sense of responsibility to children can be by giving them tasks. But make sure that the tasks given are not too heavy. Tasks that can be completed by children of his age.

For example, the task of making the bed, taking care of his own toys, washing his own dishes and so on. Make sure your child is able to do it.

3. Teach your little one to return things to their place of origin

When your child finishes learning or playing, you can tell him to take responsibility for what he has played. When toys are messy, don't get into the habit of cleaning them up yourself.

Invite children to clean up the toys together as a form of teaching them about responsibility.

4. Involve your child in household work

If it has been habituated since childhood, children do not consider what they do to be a burden, including homework. Therefore, make sure that you always teach your child to do homework from an early age.

Starting from teaching children to wash fruit, wiping dishes or dining tables before and after eating, making the bed and so on. Try so that children can share tasks with parents and parents educate children so that they can always work together to carry out their responsibilities from an early age because this will be very important for their growth and development.

5. Give praise but don't do it too often

After the children have done their job well, give praise to encourage them and make the little one feel appreciated. That way, your little one can know what he is doing is not in vain and get a positive response from parents.

Often children expect this positive response as an encouragement to learn more. But in giving praise, don't be too frequent. Don't say a little 'good job' or other compliments. Give it if it is worthy and in the right condition as well.

6. Teach children about consequences

After being given an assignment, don't forget to try to provide information to the child about the consequences of the task not done. So, if one day when there is an assignment and the child does not do it, you can remind him again what the consequences are.

At the beginning of the learning period, give assignments and inform them of the consequences. If it is not done, remind, but if the task is done and completed well, give rewards according to the agreement. Occasionally giving rewards is not a problem for children.

7. Don't push too hard

When carrying out what is their duty and responsibility, children need to get used to it. Make sure not to impose your will, let alone get angry. Because such an attitude hurts the child's mentality or even makes the child educated to do something out of fear, not because of the awareness of responsibility within him.

8. Implement structure and routines

Without many people realizing it, children also like something structured because it can make them feel comfortable. Therefore, make sure parents always try to give their children a daily schedule and inculcate it so that they obey the structured schedule.

That's a little information about tips and how to educate children to be responsible for themselves and their lives. Hopefully your child can become a person who meets the expectations of parents, moms!
