From day zero, our children are constantly
forming impressions, opinions, creating an emotional outlook and a
psychological profile strengthened by cognitive training, language learning, social
skills and strong influences of physiology and the surrounding environment. The
biological, psychological and emotional changes that occur in the children as
they grow from being dependent to autonomous is what the experts refer to as child development, which is also responsible for the behavioural development in the
children
Parents have a vital role in the emotional and
psychological development of their children. Parents can help their children
learn how to express their feelings through instructing, modeling, and guiding
them in applying the skills of emotional management. A parent, helping children
with their feelings can both help them feel better and reduce behavior
problems. Children who are able to manage their emotions often experience positive
feedback from others and are more successful in everyday life. Parents are
important for their children’s emotional development not only because they are
attachment figures but also because of their cognitive and emotional expertise to
instruct their offspring on the use of emotion labels, appraisals, expressions,
and strategies. As it
is said the roots of all development primarily start at home- the parents must
understand that by being attentive to their children, respecting the differences
of opinions, nurturing their self-esteem and modeling the right behavior, they can
make a world of difference, to their children.
Since the optimum development of children is a critical
requirement for the future, ‘The Commuknitree’ brings Dr. Anureet Sethi to
address the topic of ‘Psychological, Emotional and Behavioural Development of Young Minds and Role of Parents’ at the ‘Back-to-School Event’ for community empowerment.
By teaching our children to recognize their feelings and express
them by regulating their emotions, we can create strong individuals, who can solve
problems independently and make effective contributions to the society.
