Duties of a Good Mom

By Cindy Thomas


Love is the most important gift you can give your children. Always love them no matter what they do. And also always hug them no matter how old they may think they are. Everyone needs hugs to survive. Every time your child does something naughty like spill juice on your brand new furniture, just take a deep breath and count to ten. Train yourself to count. It might not save tears, but it will save pain. Sometimes it's really hard not to yell and all mothers yell at some point.

Learn to respect your children and they will respect you. Be glad about the little things they do for you, and always appreciate them and then they will do them more often. Show your children how much you are willing to do for the family. They need to know that you are a responsible person by working hard and caring for their needs. This will teach them to do the same for their families in the future. Building a loving home for a child is the ultimate responsibility.

Have goals set for your family, your children and yourself. Involve your children in your goals and teach them to make their own goals and show them how to achieve it. For example, if they want a new Lego or a new coloring book and it's not close to Christmas or a birthday, have them do a few extra household tasks around the house they don't normally do to earn the toy.

It's important to teach your children about your family history and its traditions. Some families have daily traditions and some have holiday traditions. You could cook an old traditional recipe or sing old traditional songs etc. A family gets close only by keeping family traditions alive.

Be kind to your child. They are born innocent and try to keep them that way as long as possible. It's important that we answer to all the questions asked by your children. Keep talking to them and learn what they want out of life. All children would prefer to hear more about life from people they love and trust than from complete strangers or friends. By talking to them, your children will love and respect you more. A mom is the best person to influence their children to be the best they can be. Remember to treat your children with dignity, love and respect and they will treat you with the same.
