How to respect your children
It is certainly true that we, as adults, always try to respect one another. But do we extend the same courtesy to our children?
Umm Zaidah Nusaybah discusses at her blog:
“Respect is often associated with elders. We are taught to respect our parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents etc. The subject of respecting youngsters is quite alien. How often do we see children being spoken to in a derogatory manner? Being criticized for not doing something correctly or being shouted at for causing an accident? Have we ever stopped to think about how that child feels when we behave in such a manner? We need to ask ourselves, how would you feel if we were being treated in this way.”
