No parent is perfect.No child is perfect either… keeping this in mind is important when we set our expectations.

But it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t work towards that goal.Set high standards for ourselves first and then our children second. We serve as a role model to them.

Parenting styles have a big impact on how children develop into adults, and they are important implications for their future success.

Positive parenting does not mean a lack of discipline. To be a positive parent, you still have to acknowledge poor behavior and correct it, but you do it in a manner that encourage repetition of positive behavior, not avoidance of the punishment.

Babies are born with around 100 billion brain cell (neurons) with relatively little connections. These connections create our thoughts, drive our actions, shape our personalities and basically determine who we are. They are created, strengthened and “sculpted” through experiences across our lives.

Not only do these positive experiences create good connections in your child’s brain, but they also form the memories of you that your child carries for life.

Positive parenting builds healthier relationships between parents and children. The approach makes parents more sensitive, responsive and consistent in their interactions with their children, and it makes children happier, more optimistic and more intrinsically motivated to choose the behaviors that parents prefer.

We usually do that activities perform with his child for which bad impact on his child like i listed below read once:-

1. Reprimanding the Child Excessively:- If your child does something wrong and you reprimand or scold him excessively for the mistake, it can have a negative influence on your child. This practice can have a worse effect if your child has displayed honesty and has confessed to making a mistake.

2. Disciplining the Child in Front of Everyone:- You might lose your patience and scold, yell, or even hit your child in front of others. This will have a serious impact on your child’s confidence and the feeling of shame arising from this method of discipline will be hard to shake off.

3. All advice, No Encouragement:- You dispense advice about everything from brushing teeth to picking the right clothes rather than encouraging your child with support.

4. Withholding Affection:- You do not give your child hugs or say ‘I love you’ to your child often. This will make your child feel emotionally disconnected from you.

5. No Rules:- Children need structure and boundaries in order to grow up to be healthy individuals. If the child does not grow with discipline, then he will suffer in situations outside the home environment.

6. Lack of Support:- Children need support especially during stressful times like a performance at school or examinations. You could be more concerned about your work and this might leave your child feeling anxious.

7. Comparing:- You constantly tell your child that he should be like other children and emulate their positive traits. This is a sign of bad parenting.

8. Not Proud of His Achievements:- You never praise your child for his achievements and do not show pride in his hard work.

Child Parent Relationship Therapy is practical, fun, and highly beneficial for families desiring to strengthen familial bonds with their children.
