How to Teach a Child Respect
As a child grows out of being an infant and begins to notice and react to the world around him,you may find yourself wondering how you possibly impart all of the things that they need to become a responsible, respectful adult. Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life .A child who learns to respect all he meets not only receives respect from others in kind, also learns to respect himself as well
Instructions
★1 Show your child respect. This is perhaps the best way to teach your child how to respect others. Listen to your child by giving her your full attention and she will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in relationships.
★2 Teach manners by using polite requests and responses .The more you say "please" and "thank you" to your child, the more likely he will learn to use them with you and others. Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation.
★3 Agree to disagree. Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you. Explain your decision so that she will understand your reasoning and expect respectful responses. Disagreeing with you doesn't equate to disobedience
★4 Control your impulse to overreact. When a situation arises between you and your child that requires calmness, keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.If he sees you lose your temper, he is more likely to respond that way in future.
★5 Praise, praise, praise! So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that the accomplishments are not celebrated enough. When you see you child exhibit respectful behavior, make sure he knows just how proud you are of him.
