If you’re worried about a kid sitting around with a lot of gadgets, it’s useless just to stop him from doing it.

When we were kids, we didn’t like our parents spying, reading our diaries or texting our friends, even though they did it for the best of reasons. Establish a strong and honest relationship if you want to encourage children to share their secrets, seek advice and support from their parents.

Parents mistakenly believe that comparing a child with his peers encourages him to be more diligent, especially if this is made in public. In the view of adults, everything should be equally good for children.

If you are committed to a birthday game then keep your word. If you promise not to shout, don't raise your voice.
