World parent’s
day
(An Article written by S. Ananthalakshmi, XII

People all over the world have the opportunity to appreciate parents and
parental figures for the vital role they play in the development of families,
in parents’ day. Community leaders,
parents, children, teachers, and family organisation get together in
celebrating parents’ day and promoting effective parenting.
`` Our parents deserve our honour and respect for giving us life itself.
Beyond this, they almost always made countless sacrifices as they cared for and
nurtured us through our infancy and childhood, provided us with the necessities
of life , and nursed us through physical illnesses and the emotional stresses
of growing up’’-Ezra Taft Benson.
The International Parents day 2015, June 1st, provides a
prospect to appreciate parents for their selfless promise to kids and their lifelong
sacrifice toward nurturing this affiliation.UPF supports the UN resolution note
that the family has the main responsibility for the development and protection
of children and those children, for the full plus harmonious growth of their personality,
must grow up in a family surroundings and in an ambience of happiness, love and
understanding.
The way a parent disciplines, greatly affects their children’s
behaviour. When a parent elects to use physical punishment, such as spanking,
it does not teach the child how to change his behaviour. Children can also
react aggressively to physical punishment. When parents choose alternative
forms of punishment, such as timeouts, they are helping modify the child’s bad
behaviour in a calm manner. Children may blame themselves for their parents’ arguments
and may be traumatizing for years to come. Children may develop low self
–esteems and may even behave violently towards other children.
Dysfunctional families breed dysfunctional
children. Children often repeat this behaviour in their future
relationships. Child abuse causes a range of antisocial and destructive behaviours.
This is because abused children try to
cope and to understand why they are being abused. Parents who abuse their
children may cause their children to be aggressive and violent, experience
learning problems and even become involved in drugs or alcohol.
Parents, who abuse, provide the opposite of what a child needs to grow
up healthy. Instead, they destroy the inside and outside world of a child.
Parents greatly affect their children’s behaviour. Children are like
sponges-they model everything a parent does and incorporate what they see in to
their own lives. It is important that parents set the right examples
for their children. Negative examples can be detrimental to a child’s
development and can lead to bad behaviour. Role models are often subjects of
admiration and emulation. Through their personal qualities and achievements
they can inspire others to strive and develop without direct instruction. Due
to their regular presence and interaction with the children, parents can serve
as consistent and evolving role models for their children.
Parents’ care nurtures children. Their love makes them feel secure; their support
provides them with the courage to take on all challenges. They are our parents,
the best gifts we could ever have from god. Parents’ day is that
wonderful day that attempts to pay a tribute all parents and parenthood. Dianthus caryophyllus, commonly known
as Carnations, flowers that symbolise parents’ day are given to parents
by children in celebrating parents’ day in South Korea. For children across the
planet, it is that fabulous day that gives them the opportunity to fill their
parents with the warmth of their love and present them with gifts they would
love best.
