First, allow children to have their own ideas. Parents should not plan, organize and arrange all their children's activities. In fact, letting children express their opinions is not to let children make up their own minds. With the growth of age, children's cognitive level of the world is greatly improved, their sense of independence and their abilities in all aspects are getting stronger and stronger, and children begin to have their own cognition, opinions and views on things. As parents, even in the face of children making their own decisions but making mistakes, don't reprimand or forbid them. First, help children sum up the reasons for not doing well this time, help children analyze the situation when they encounter things, give some suggestions, and inspire children to find ways to solve problems themselves.
Second, the church gives children basic life skills. Basic life skills mainly refer to the most basic self-care ability such as eating, sleeping, urinating, undressing and washing. It also includes reading, communication, cooperation, labor and other abilities.
Four steps to cultivate children's life skills:
Step one, we'll do it for you.

When you come into contact with some new shoes and food, try to ask your children what they think about it and recognize their opinions. While listening to children's opinions, actively discuss with them, praise their good ideas and correct their wrong ideas.
Fourth, teach children to pay attention to the bigger world instead of limiting themselves.
Children are not only members of the family, but also members of society. When they grow up, they should live and work in harmony with other members of society. Let children have more contact with society and participate in group activities since childhood, and encourage them to exchange and cooperate with people engaged in different occupations. In cooperative activities, children cultivate feelings of mutual help and friendship, and in social activities, they restrict each other, which is very effective in cultivating self-control. It is also necessary to help children observe things around them through dialogue and communication, and encourage them to form views on people and things. ?
