The best time for kids to grasp tenets of good manners is that age of two years and below. It is only parents who can teach them how to behave in good manners in different situations. The better your child is behaved, the more society will respect you in future.
Even if it is beyond our control, it is very true that children get exposed to the ups and downs of life the moment they open their eyes. Therefore, there needs to be somebody around who will help them meet head-on, the issues that test our morality so that they learn manners in time.
When it comes to coaching mannerisms, parents can breathe easy knowing the following tips.
The issue of training is a tricky one and should vary depending on the child's age. For example, to train a child who is aged five and above, you can simply talk to and reason with them. However, for one under five, mere words are not understood as easy. Therefore, it calls for parents to perform acts that portray kindness. The child will then watch and ape these behaviors.
If a child sees you saying thank you every time something good is done to you or every time you receive something, they will end up adapting that trait of thankfulness. They will assist those in need.
As the child grows closer to school going age, he is more exposed and can therefore understand advanced words from the parents. It is easier to instill wisdom through word for word. It becomes easier to train them.
There are some extreme situations where an adult is justified to do what society does not think is right. However, children should not be purposely exposed to these situations. It nullifies everything you taught him.
To be safe, look at the child as a vessel. This vessel is empty and needs to be topped up with love with time. Do this by continuous will to complement the child whenever they do those morally upright acts.
