Most of us have children and most of us are planning to have one. This blog is for those who want to become good parents and wants to give their children a wonderful life ahead...

When god created man, he also transferred his power to him, so that even man has the same power as god has, to create another man.. And that's how father and mother came into existence.

In fact, when god was transferring his power, not all received it. There were few who were devoid of this blessing. However, we would never know the reason for this.

So, even though we did not receive the power of deciding the gender, people who received the power of giving birth to another soul, should feel blessed and take care of that soul in the best way possible. Because that's how god took care of everybody since ages and thus we were born.

It is very important to take care of a child since infancy. A child's mental development starts since the time s/he takes birth.

Parenting takes a lot of patience and tolerance. To become a good parent, you need to have good parenting skills. An infant cannot speak, neither can she express her feelings. A good parent hears what is not spoken and feels what is not expressed. Every second you need to be alert. Even in the middle of the night, your baby can demand anything.  So, in a way, you cannot have a sound sleep.

You need to be consistent with your child. So, sticking to a routine that doesn't change often, is a good idea.

Talking to your little ones as much as possible is another way to develop their mental and social abilities. By doing this, you make the child feel that she is connected to you and to others, otherwise, she might feel isolated.

Since the time a child is born, she learns every second. It is said that whatever you teach a child till the age of 4, it stays with him/her forever. Till the time a child is unable to speak, talk to her about her surroundings, about the family and about each and every thing that she comes in contact with. Live up to her expectations and never leave her alone.

When she starts speaking, every second will have a new question in store for you. Make sure that none of the questions remain unanswered. Because if it is unanswered, it means she didn't learn it. And she will have that question mark in her mind till it is answered. This will, at a certain extent, block the child's mental development.

Along with the mental and social development, a child's physical development should be monitored and taken care of simultaneously. So, the food should always be fresh. No junk food or oily food should be given to a child. Feed your little one with lots of greens and fruits, so that she gets all types of vitamins and minerals. However, food should always start after 6 months. Till that time a mother's milk is best for the child. You should always keep your clothes and house clean and dust free. Sunlight is the best source of vitamin D. So, keep your child in sunlight, preferably, before 10' O clock in the morning, for at least an hour.

Above all, never miss out on showering your love towards your baby. Nothing can replace love. And that is the first thing your baby needs from you..

Happy Parenting!!
