Teaching respect to your children can be difficult no matter their age! We believe it is important to equip parents to begin teaching an attitude of respect when a child is young. Check out ideas on how to demonstrate this trait below:
For Newborns - This stage begins when parents meet the emotional and physical needs of a child. Parents who use "no" as an answer will help them enforce their expectations. A child should understand that "no" is more important then their "yes."
For Toddlers - Set an example by saying "thank you" and then ask, "what do you need to say?". Show them how to practice kindness in different ways. For example, give coins to a charity or say a prayer for people involved in an emergency accident. This teaches them to have respect for the people around them.
