RE: The impatience and impotence of a generation

in OCD4 years ago

Así es, yo tengo una hija de 7 años y se molestaba por cualquier cosa trivial, ahora aplico algunos cambios en casa. Si desea comer una golosina le dio que debe esperar 30 minutos, si está mirando netflix no le permito ver más de 2 capítulos seguidos y así en diferentes actividades. Tratando que comprenda que las cosas en ocasiones no llegan al instante. Preparándola para la vida, pues para muchas cosas grandes de necesitará se paciente, tolerante, constante.

That's right, I have a 7 year old daughter and she used to get upset about anything trivial, now I apply some changes at home. If she wants to eat a candy bar she should wait 30 minutes, if she's watching netflix I don't allow her to watch more than 2 episodes in a row and so on. Trying to make him understand that sometimes things don't come instantly. Preparing her for life, because for many big things she will need to be patient, tolerant, constant.

For sure. A little dose of life's reality is healthy for kids and something every parent should introduce. It isn't easy to find balances, but it is worth it.
