Encourage Creativity
Keep in mind that creativity requires creating new ground, which means breaking old rules; there's no wrong way to paint a picture, shape a piece of clay, build a structure out of blocks. Hovering over your toddler, directing and suggesting, can inhibit creativity. It's okay to occasionally inquire about a work in progress. But offer suggestions only when help is requested.
Sibling Rivalry
Don't worry about sibling rivalry, but do expect it. It's one of those facts of life that's pretty much inevitable.
Remember, rivalry is the natural outcome when two people compete for the same prize - in this case, the attention and love of their parents. You can help minimize the competition by;
Don't play favorites
Comparing your children or favoring one over the other will only increase resentment, intensify the fighting, and possibly lead to life-long problems in their relationship.
For the child who's not the favorite, a poor self image and jealousy towards his sibling are the likely results.
For the child who is the favorite, the burden of being 'the best' and having to live up to overblown parental expectations often results in a fear of failure.
Ease Competition
Don't make comparisons between children; comparisons promote competitiveness. Give each child what he needs in terms of time, support, love, material goods, and so on, to make your children less compelled to compete for your love and attention.
And remember that treating your children fairly doesn't mean treating them exactly the same
Try to build healthy communications and relationships while the kids are young.
In many homes, parents do not really talk to their kids when they are young. But when the kids become teens, these parents desperately want to talk to their teens. But the opportunity is not there anymore.
अगर आप आज अपने बच्चें को नहीं सुन रहें तो यक़ीन माने कल वो आप की नहीं सुनेगा ।।
Do not argue with your spouse about discipline in front of your child. When your child sees the disagreement, he/she become confused how to react to discipline. Rather kids take advantage of these disagreements in avoiding discipline, giving excuses, pushing one parent for specific want to whom they can bend.
To have discipline be effective, you must have a united front with spouse.
What to do:
To avoid disagreements, Parents shall sit once in a month for 30 minutes specifically talking about their child's behavior, physical needs, educational needs etc.
This way Parent's 'Yes' or 'No' will be common in most of the cases
