How You Can Show Love To Your Children Equally by ValourDigest(m): 11:15am On Sep 19, 2020
Not many people care to admit it, but if you choose to look at it closely, you’ll realize that it can actually be a bit difficult to show love to your children equally. This is caused by several factors ranging from personality traits to the level of helpfulness around the home and several other things.

However, regardless of what factors might influence it, you need to be able to show love to your children equally. It is your responsibility as a parent for a number of reasons.

For starters, if you don’t, you risk causing intense sibling rivalry, which could generate a rift between the children. Alongside that, you really don’t want a child who grows up with the mindset that her parents did not love her the way they loved the other person. A mindset like that can be crippling in the child’s adult life.

So, while it can be challenging, you need to learn how to show love to your children equally. How? Let’s see:

1. Spend quality time with each of them

Now, if one kid sees you always playing with the other kid and never giving them the time of day, it would most definitely pass the wrong message. It would be even more traumatic for him/her if s/he makes efforts to be with you, and you turn them down subtly or directly.

So, as much as you can, spend quality time with your kids. Engage in activities that you can both enjoy and have genuine discussions along the way. If, for important reasons, you have to prioritize one child over another, explain to the others when they try to come to you.

Op, Most times It Depends On D Behaviour Of D Children, Perhaps One Of Ur Child Always Do Things Dat Makes U Happy & Is Also Obedient To U & Ur Other Child Always Do Things Dat Annoys U, Take Ur Words 4 Granted & He/she Is Disobedient Or Very Stubborn. Normally, U As A Father Or A Mother, U Would Want To Be More Concern Abt D Obedient Child Who Is Obedient To U & Makes U Happy Dan D Disobedient Or Stubborn Child. Even Jesus Made An Example Of Dis In D Bible.

I hope you give back all that love in your own way too.
To whom much is given, much, if not more is expected.
