What does it mean to be emotionally weak? Emotional weakness is not being able to regulate or express your emotions in a healthy, well-balanced way. It isn’t anyone’s fault, nor is it something to be ashamed of if you feel you have not reached a certain level of emotional strength

Did you know that an unhealthy diet also affects your breathing? In today's video, you will see seven foods that are good for your lungs and help the respiratory system work. Although breathing is an involuntary action of our bodies, breathing correctly isn't all that simple. During the colder season, the dry and polluted air makes it difficult for the body to filter the oxygen correctly. It increases the chances of catching a cold or flu, of developing allergic crises, besides worsening chronic issues, such as asthma, rhinitis, and bronchitis. Do you suffer from any of these issues, or know someone who does? See now 7 foods that work great for the lungs! Watercress Watercress helps lubricate the lungs and, because it is expectorating, contributes to alleviating coughs, sore throats and inflammations on the up airways. Lettuce One of the most popular and most eaten green leaves of the world, lettuce is wonderful for the lungs. Garlic Besides being a natural anti-inflammatory, garlic also contains allicin, capable of fighting infections, reducing inflammations, and preventing diseases. Onion Rich in antioxidants, onion has important actions to strengthen the immune system and avoid chronic diseases, colds, and flu. Carrot Carrots are good for the specific case of coughs and phlegm, helping us breathe better and benefitting lung health. Kale Besides being rich in fiber and being a food that improves lung health, kale contains special phytonutrients that help defend our body against the development of cancer cells. Turnip Known for its bitter taste, which comes from a compound called glucosinolate, the turnip has anticancer actions in the body. So, did you know that these foods could help your breathing and lungs? Adding them to your daily eating is a simple way of reducing inflammation, improving lung function and healing your respiratory tract.

This happens when you sweat while wearing shoes and socks. The sweat has nowhere to go and sticks to your feet, leaving a bad smell. Luckily, there are many natural things you can try to get rid of the bad odor. In order for them to work, you’ll have to do them a lot for a certain amount of time. Many of them will work in one week. One idea is to try talcum powder on your feet, since that will help kill the bacteria and remove the smell. If you don’t have talcum powder you can try putting a good antiperspirant on your feet to keep them dry for longer. Here are a few simple ideas to get rid of that bad odor: Baking Soda The first thing you can try is baking soda. This will help to kill the bacteria on your feet. How do you do this? • Put some baking soda in warm water (one tablespoon baking soda for every quart of water) and soak your feet in it for15- 20 minutes every night for 1 week. • Sprinkle baking soda in your shoes and socks before wearing them. Lavender Oil Lavender oil smells good and helps kill bacteria. It also has fights fungus, and treats foot odor. • Pour a few drops of lavender essential oil in warm water • Soak your feet in it for 15- 20 minutes • Do this two times a day for a few days. Alum Because alum powder is sharp and kills germs it stops the smelly bacteria from growing. • Put one teaspoon alum powder into one cup of warm water. • Wash your feet with the mixture. • Wait 15- 20 minutes and then dry your feet and sprinkle more alum powder on them. • Do this once a day. Epsom Salt Epsom salt stops feet from smelling by fighting the bad bacteria. Soaking your feet in Epsom salt will also soothe aching feet. • Take half a bucket of warm water, and pour in two teaspoons of Epsom salt. • Soak your feet in the mixture for 10 – 15 minutes. It’s best to do this right before bed, so that you don’t have to put socks and shoes on for a few hours, giving your feet a break. Black Tea Black tea has tannic acid that helps kill the bacteria that make feet smell. It also stops feet from sweating, which is how they get the bad odor. • Boil two black tea bags in three cups of hot water. To make sure the mix is not too hot, add half a bucket of warm water. • Soak your feet in it for 15- 20 minutes. • Do this every day for one week. Vinegar Because vinegar has acid, bacteria cannot live in it, making it a great idea for getting rid of smelly feet. Any kind of vinegar will work for this, with apple cider vinegar working really well. • Make a mixture of half a cup of vinegar and six to eight cups of hot water. • Soak your feet in it for 10- 15 minutes. • Wash your feet very well with soap to get rid of the vinegar smell. Borax Borax also kills bacteria that give the feet a bad smell. • Mix a half cup of borax and a half cup of vinegar in two cups of water. Use it to spray the inside of your shoes. • Another thing you can do is dust the inside of your shoes with borax powder before putting them on.

Visit us at * http://pureremedyusa.com/joint-pain Visit us on Facebook * https://www.facebook.com/blantz2 Many people experience joint pain in their knees, elbows, and hands. People relate this to aging. Because of this, they believe it to be a normal pain and do not seek treatment for it. However, when the body is in pain, it experiences stress. Also, untreated knee pain can cause damage to the knees and cause shifting of the knee. Knee pain can be caused by excessive use, bone density, as well as wear and tear of the muscles and tissues. Vitamin deficiency is also a known cause of knee pain. Particularly, if the body lacks calcium, vitamin D, and iron. Someone who lacks vitamin D and calcium is at risk for arthritis and inflammation of the joints. Many also do not realize that this pain can be treated with a natural remedy which will leave them pain-free in just a matter of a few days. Today’s video will discuss how to prevent joint and knee pain, as well as how to relieve it. If someone experiences knee pain for over a week, there may be a more serious problem than just overuse and they should seek medical attention. It is also very important to eat a diet that is high in vitamins, bromelain, and magnesium. A smoothie made from cinnamon, pineapple, and orange juice is one natural remedy that is highly effective in treating and relieving knee and joint pain. This smoothie has anti-inflammatory properties, as well as silicon, bromelain, vitamin C, and magnesium. Vitamin C is found in pineapple and is especially important to the body’s bones. Pineapple also contains a high amount of bromelain, which is an anti-inflammatory. Cinnamon helps the body’s blood to circulate more effectively. Orange juice also contains vitamin C that can help make ligaments and tendons strong. To make the smoothie, you will need: 2 small cups of diced pineapple; 1 cup of rolled oats; 2 cups of water; 1 glass of orange juice; 1 cinnamon stick; Raw, natural honey; Directions: Add water and oatmeal into a pot and allow to cook for a few minutes. After the oatmeal is cooked well, allow it to cool down. Place orange juice, oats, cinnamon, pineapple, and honey into a blender. Mix all ingredients together and add water to make the smoothie thinner, if desired. For best results, it is recommended to drink this smoothie on a daily basis. After five consistent days of consuming this drink, total relief from knee and joint pain should be experienced.

“Panic is a sudden desertion of us, and a going over to the enemy of our imagination,” said the 19th-century writer Christian Nestell Bovee. As everyone who has ever experienced a panic attack knows, there is nothing imaginary about the way you feel. I've tried to convince my husband on countless occasions, in the middle of an attack, that I was dying. Many people I know have driven to the emergency room convinced they were having a heart attack. The physiological symptoms are so acute and so real that you can’t believe that your mind is partly to blame. The word “anxiety” seems way too lame to attach to the sweat, racing heartbeat, and sheer terror of what you are feeling. At the point of my life in which I was most depressed and anxious, when my kids were preschoolers, I would carry a paper bag around with me in case I had a panic attack. It would help stabilize my breathing so I wouldn’t hyperventilate and pass out during their karate practice right as Mr. Joe was telling them to use their “black belt spirit” to control their thoughts. Since then, I've graduated to other techniques that prime my parasympathetic nervous system when I start to feel panic and help calm me down before I get to that painful and embarrassing place. Here are some of them. 1. Breathe Deeply Every relaxation technique that mitigates the stress response and halts our “fight or flight or I’m-dying-get-the-heck-out-of-my-way” reaction is based in deep breathing. I find it miraculous how something as simple as slow abdominal breathing has the power to calm down our entire nervous system. One way it does this is by stimulating our vagus nerve — our BFF in the middle of panic — because it releases a variety of anti-stress enzymes and calming hormones such as acetylcholine, prolactin, vasopressin, and oxytocin. In another blog, I go over three basic approaches: coherent breathing, resistance breathing, and breath moving. But really, all you need to do is inhale to a count of six and exhale to a count of six, moving the breath from your chest to your diaphragm. 2. Splash Water on Your Face Have you ever noticed that when you splash cold water on your face, it changes your perspective — if only for a minute? Research shows that cold-water face immersion produces physiological changes by stimulating the parasympathetic system. It quickly rouses the vagus nerve (our calming buddy), bringing down our heart rate while activating our digestive and immune systems. Apparently, the area behind our eyeballs is an easy and powerful locus of stimulation for the vagus nerve. 3. Take an Epsom Salts Bath Your eyeballs aren’t the only things that benefit from the healing powers of water. If you have the time, immersing your entire body in an Epsom salts bath can possibly reverse your stress response. Epsom salts are a mineral compound containing magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen. When used in a warm bath, they allow magnesium to be easily absorbed into the skin, which promotes a feeling of calm and relaxation. According to a 2012 study in the journal Neuropharmacology, magnesium deficiencies induce anxiety, which is why the mineral is known as the original chill pill. 4. Massage Your Scalp I wish I could afford a massage every time I felt anxious, because research shows it clearly shifts a person’s biochemistry. According to a study published in the International Journal of Neuroscience, massage therapy decreased cortisol levels by as much as 31 percent and increased serotonin by 28 percent, and dopamine by 31 percent. Scalp massages are particularly beneficial because they send blood circulation to the brain and reduce the muscle tension in the back of the head and neck. With practice and a few tips, you can learn how to give one to yourself. I use a little bit of lavender essential oil because it can be very calming. A study from Osaka Kyoiku University in Japan found that lavender oil reduced mental stress and increased alertness. 5. Shake I mentioned this technique in my blog 10 Instant Ways to Calm Yourself Down, which includes more ideas on how to slow panic. After animals escape from a predator, they don’t engage in an intellectual conversation with their peers about what it was like to almost be dinner for a family of five. No. They shake. As American pop star Taylor Swift sings in “Shake It Off,” moving our bodies in a primal fashion can simply be the best neurological exercise we have for loosening the noose of fear that often hangs around our necks, and for moving forward like a creature who refuses to be anyone’s dinner. Don’t know where to begin? Try this shaking meditation by meditation teacher Pragito Dove. 6. Pray I have prayed my way through many a panic attack. Mostly I uttered the words, “Please, God, end this!” But you need not possess a deep religious faith to benefit from contemplation. Reciting a mantra over and over again, something as simple as the word “peace,” can stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system and calm you down. Most of the world’s religions use prayer beads as part of their meditative exercises. I find holding the rosary and moving the prayer beads as I say a Hail Mary over and over again — even if my mind is somewhere completely different — is one of the best activities I can do when I’m panicking. I even sleep with a rosary. It calms me. 7. Do Rabbit Pose Ideally, it would be great to attend a yoga class where your breath gets shallow and the mind takes over, but that’s hard to do as a confident, cool mom who pretends to have her life together when you’ve got deadlines to meet and you need to pick your kids up in five minutes. If you have one minute and privacy, try Rabbit Pose, where you're sitting on your heels Japanese style with your knees and feet together. Reach back behind you and grab your heels with either hand, palms down. As you look at your stomach, lower your chin to your chest and curl your torso slowly until your forehead is touching your knees and the top of your head is touching the floor, lifting your hips into the air. Rabbit Pose relieves tension in the neck, shoulders, and back, where we carry most of our stress. It's especially therapeutic for depression and anxiety because it compresses the thyroid and parathyroid glands and moves blood to the brain. 8. Listen to Binaural Beats or Waves Some of my friends swear by binaural beats, a technology that uses low-frequency tones and brainwave entrainment to influence mood and provide control over pain. A few recent studies show that the use of binaural beats, or audio therapy, can significantly reduce anxiety, at least during cataract surgery, and can even help symptoms of ADHD in children and adolescents. Personally, I just like to listen to ocean waves. If I close my eyes and imagine myself at the beach, concentrating only on the ebb and flow of the water, I can often stabilize my heart palpitations enough to go to a semi-happy place, or at least to not obsess so much about whatever is causing me panic. 9. Warm Your Hands Did you know that whenever we get stressed, our hands get colder because blood is being fed to the areas of tension in our shoulders and hips in a fight-or-flight response? Warming our hands, then, reverses the stress response and triggers parasympathetic relaxation. A number of studies report that we can lower blood pressure with hand warming. I go for the obvious route — holding a hot cup of tea, sitting in a warm bath, etc. But you can also visualize activities that warm the hands — sitting in front of a hot fire, curling under the covers — and generate a relaxed response that way, too! 10. Eat Dark Chocolate If all these things seem like way too much work, there's one last technique that I think you’ll like: Simply eat lots of dark chocolate. Not the Hershey's bar that says “dark chocolate” but has much more sugar than cocoa — shoot for at least 85 percent cocoa or higher. Dark chocolate has one of the highest concentrations of magnesium in a food, with one square providing 327 milligrams, or 82 percent of your daily value. As I said earlier, magnesium is our calming friend. The only other foods that are as concentrated are squash and pumpkin seeds. Dark chocolate also contains large amounts of tryptophan, an amino acid that works as a precursor to serotonin, and theobromine, another mood-elevating compound. I find that eating a few squares of Lindt’s 90% Cocoa EXCELLENCE bar is much more enjoyable than breathing into a paper bag.

Dog cognitive science has come a long way over the past two decades. Wagging tails, persuasive looks and the shape of ears yield all kinds of information about a dog’s intentions and emotional state. The way dogs develop human-like behavior has been the subject of many scientific studies. Research has shown that dogs have the same brain structures that produce emotions in humans, and there are several ways in which dogs demonstrate their love and affection. So let’s look at 10 proven ways that dogs show their love. #1. Your dog yawns with you if a dog yawns when you do - it’s actually a form of social bonding. Researchers at the University of Tokyo have shown that, just like humans, dogs yawn contagiously, but they're more sensitive to the yawns of their owners than those who they don't know. Since contagious yawning in humans is linked to empathy, some scientists believe this might be the case with canines too. #2. Your dog gazes into your eyes when you look at them Dogs can’t talk with humans in a verbal fashion so they use many non-verbal ways of communicating. One of the ways in which dogs show their love is gazing directly into your eyes. According to a research published in the journal of Science, dogs develop strong emotional bonds with humans by staring into our eyes. This non-verbal way of communication increases level of social hormone called oxytocin in both dogs and their owners. #3. Your dog raises their eyebrows When dogs stick out their tongue at the same time as they raise their eyebrows, they are trying hard to mimic your facial expressions in the best way they can. They won’t do this with other dogs. But they will with you. According to a research published in Scientific Reports journal, dogs produce significantly more facial movements when humans are paying attention to them than when they are being ignored. #4. Your dog cuddles up with you after you feed it This is the surest way to know your dog loves you. Even though you feed them every day, your dog doesn’t just see you as a feeding machine. They want to cuddle with you after they eat because they want to show you that they love you for more than just their daily meal. Cuddling also releases endorphins that make them feel better. So, does your dog want to play alone, or cuddle up with you, after eating? #5. Your dog brings you its favorite toy Dogs are possessive about their bones, toys and other chews. So when your dog jumps in your lap and brings you their chewed-up and worn-out favorite toy or bone, be glad! Because they are displaying two types of behavior that are rooted in their love for you. First, they are giving you an offering. Second, they believe that you will keep their most prized possession safe #6. Your dog lets you touch its head Many dogs don’t like being petted on the top of their head because they perceive it as a threat. Especially if you are towering over them as a human, they do not like being patted on the top of their skull. It is much better to get down on their level and scratch them under the chin or at the base of their tail. So if your dog lets you touch the top of their head, you are their special one. #7. Your dog gets into your laundry and carries your socks around in its mouth If your dog sleeps on your clothes, it means it loves you. Your clothing has your scent on it and dogs always want to feel closer to you. #8. Your dog wags its tail Your dog will wag its tail to communicate with you. But it doesn’t always mean it is happy. While wagging its tail in the natural position may be a friendly greeting, be aware of other positions. If a dog gets nervous, it will wag its tail in a lower position. And if a dog wags its tail held high, it is curious or aroused by something. A slow or stiff tail means that it is about to get aggressive. your dog is definitely trying to tell you something when it is wagging its tail. The position of the tail varies by breed. The best thing is to do in this case is research the breed of dog you have. Then you will know much more about why they are wagging their tail. And what it means. #9. Your dog goes crazy when you get home late Studies have shown that dogs’ reunion with their beloved owner has a significantly positive effect on them, increasing the level of social hormone oxytocin, and lowering the level of stress hormone cortisol. They are also probably wagging their tail in the upright position - as they are overexcited and curious as to what new treats you are bringing home to them. And they will reassure you that they love you too. Probably by licking your face. #10. Your dog follows you around even when you don’t need them to your dog will follow you around even when you want to be alone. If you have ever given your dog treats, they may follow you around thinking there are always treats on you. It’s called imprinting.

If you have phonophobia, your fear of loud noise may be overwhelming, causing you to panic and feel extremely anxious. Fear of loud noise is referred to as phonophobia, sonophobia, or ligyrophobia. This condition is not caused by hearing loss, or any type of hearing disorder. Phonophobia is a specific phobia. Specific phobias are an extreme, irrational fear of situations or objects that do not warrant that intense reaction. Like all phobias, phonophobia is a treatable anxiety disorder. It is earmarked by an overwhelming dread of loud noise. A person with this condition may experience deep distress about a loud noise they know is coming, as well as by an unexpected loud noise. When is a fear of loud noises a phobia? Loud noises can be unpleasant and uncomfortable. Rare is the person who enjoys an incessant car alarm or a shrieking ambulance siren. Some loud noises, such as those made by fireworks, maybe more easily tolerated since they’re associated with pleasant things. These are experiences most people can relate to. However, if you have phonophobia, you will experience a highly intense reaction to any type of loud noise, no matter what its association or cause. People with this condition feel deep stress and anxiety when they anticipate loud noise. They also have extreme reactions to loud noises, once they occur. Are there other conditions that make sounds uncomfortable? Phonophobia differs from other conditions that have discomfort to sound like a symptom. These include: Hyperacusis. This condition is not a phobia. Rather, it is a hearing disorder that causes sounds to feel louder than they actually are. Hyperacusis has a number of causes, including brain injury, Lyme disease, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Misophonia. This condition is emotional in nature but is not a phobia. People with misophonia have intense, emotional reactions, such as hatred or panic, to a specific sound, such as a dripping faucet or a person snoring. The sound does not have to be loud to produce this effect. What are the symptoms? The symptoms of phonophobia may make it hard to enjoy everyday activities and daily life. A person with this condition may experience these symptoms in anticipation of loud noise, while it is occurring, or afterward. They include: anxiety fear breaking into a sweat shortness of breath pounding heart or increased heart rate chest pain dizziness lightheadedness nausea fainting Are symptoms different in children? Phobias of all types can occur in children, as well as in adults. If your child has a severe reaction to loud noise, seeing an audiologist can help you determine if they have phonophobia or an auditory condition such as hyperacusis. The symptoms of both of these conditions may appear similar in children. Your child may become very distressed by sounds that do not seem overly loud to you. They may cover their ears, become afraid, or try to get away from the sound. Is the fear of loud noises related to autism? People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may sometimes have a fear of loud noises. This reaction can be caused by several underlying factors, including heightened anxiety, sensory sensitivity, or both. Kids and adults with ASD may experience fear in anticipation of a loud noise that they associate with an unpleasant event. Those with sensory issues may have hypersensitivity to sound, which causes them to hear things much louder than they actually are. Children with ASD have been known to compare the sound of raindrops to bullets. In addition, there is some evidence that phobias of all types are common among those on the spectrum. What causes a fear of loud noises? Phonophobia is a mental health condition that can manifest at any age. Like all specific phobias, its exact cause is not completely understood. It may be caused by genetic factors. People with a family history that includes anxiety disorders may be more prone to this condition. Phonophobia may also be caused by external factors, such as a history of long-term childhood trauma, or, a single traumatic incident. In autistic children and in some other children, the traumatic event may seem extreme but is not actually so. For example, suddenly hearing everyone loudly yell surprise at a birthday party. Is the fear of loud noises a part of other conditions? In some instances, phonophobia may also be a symptom of another condition.

Visit us on pureremedyusa.com/breastfeeding You’re doing a great job of protecting yourself and others from the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. including physical distancing and washing your hands frequently. But what’s the deal with breastfeeding during this time? Fortunately, protecting your little ones is similar to protecting yourself, even when it comes to your very little one who’s breastfeeding. Some encouraging news: Researchers haven’t yet found SARS-CoV-2 in breast milk, though research is limited. Two case studies — yes, just two, which is not enough to draw conclusions — from China report that the new coronavirus wasn’t found in the breast milk of either woman who became ill with COVID-19 late in their last trimester. Both women had healthy babies who didn’t have a coronavirus infection. The mothers avoided skin contact with their newborn babies and isolated themselves until they recovered. Additionally, while we are still learning about SARS-CoV-2, scientists do know its closest relative, SARS-CoV, very well. This coronavirus hasn’t been found in breast milk, either. But more medical studies are needed. Call your doctor if you’re unsure about whether to breastfeed your baby. -So with this in mind, what are the guidelines for breastfeeding? If you can breastfeed your baby, it’s important to keep it up. But there are special guidelines to protect your baby during this pandemic. Researchers know that SARS-CoV-2 is spread mainly through tiny droplets in the air when a person who’s carrying the virus sneezes, coughs, or talks. In fact, this virus likes to move into the nose before it even causes symptoms in some people. Unfortunately, you can pass the virus on before you get symptoms, and even if you never have symptoms but are carrying it. While we’ve already established that you likely can’t pass on the new coronavirus through your breast milk, you can still pass it through droplets from your mouth and nose or by touching your little one after coming in contact with your face or these droplets. So it’s especially important to follow these guidelines if you have COVID-19 symptoms or think you might have been exposed to the virus: -Wash your hands: You would wash your hands carefully before touching your baby in any case. Now, it’s vital to wash your hands frequently, especially before and after you pick up your baby or handle baby bottles and other baby items. -Wear a mask Perhaps you’re already used to wearing one when you go out, but in your own house?! If you’re breastfeeding, then yes. If you have any symptoms of COVID-19 or have even an inkling that you may have it, wear a mask while you’re breastfeeding your baby. Wear it even if you don’t have symptoms. Also, wear a mask while you are holding, changing, or talking to your baby. This will likely be uncomfortable for you — and startle or distract your little one at first — but it can help prevent a coronavirus infection. -Disinfect surfaces Clean and disinfect anything you’ve touched with an alcohol-based cleaner. This includes countertops, changing tables, bottles, and clothing. Also, clean surfaces that you haven’t touched that might have air droplets on them. Carefully clean and disinfect everything that might touch your baby. This virus can survive on some services for up to 48 to 72 hours! -Pump breast milk You can also pump your breast milk and have your partner or a family member feed your baby. Don’t worry — this is temporary. Wash your hands and clean any area of skin the breast pump will touch. Ensure that the bottle is completely sterile by placing it in boiled water between feedings. Disinfect the breast milk parts carefully with boiled water or soap and water. -Keep baby formula on hand You don’t have to breastfeed if you feel you are ill or have symptoms of COVID-19. Keep baby formula and sterile baby bottles on hand ready to go, just in case

Visit us on pureremedyusa.com/healthy-parenting Parenting plays a vital role in developing a child's cognitive and social skills that assist them in the latter part of their life. Parents become the primary socialization agency for them during infancy, which makes children imitate parents from an early age. They pick up on the language, learn their behavior patterns, and then impersonate them when they move on to other socialization agencies. There also have been debates about whether it's the nature of a child that affects their development, and it is the nurturing they experience. There has been an experiment and observation made where the children are in the two different living conditions. They were subject to separate parenting techniques that gave the opposite outcomes. A Minnesota Twin Family Study, conducted from 1979 to 1999, features a pair of brothers, Jack Yufe and Oskar Stohr. They were the first to join the research project. They were separated as babies and reconnected at the age of 21. They shared similarities that were a part of their genes and how they grew up affected. Yufe was raised as a Jewish in Trinidad, whereas Stohr grew up in Germany, where he joined the Nazi movement as a teenager. It shows that the parent's environment brings up the child at an early age and sets the foundation for how they form their bonds in the future. If the child grows up in a secure and healthy environment, they will know the value of love, and they're worth it. When a priority is given to the emotional, mental, and linguistic development, the kid will develop a stable connection with the parents. The child will grow up to be confident during social interactions when the parents fulfill his emotional needs. Parenting Style – Positive Parenting No one parenting formula fits every child. The techniques need to be modified for every child in a way that is suitable for them. Adaptation and changes are required to bring out the best in every child. Here are some tips that can help you improve your relationship with your child. 1. Warm, loving interactions Children can pick up on the cold behavior and can get scared off easily. It can damage the relationship further as well. Try to treat each interaction by giving them a warm smile, an encouraging nod, or a comforting hug. It will bring your kids closer to you and make them understand there is always someone in their corner. 2. Have boundaries, rules & consequences Children are entirely unaware of the things around them and how they function. They need a guide who teaches them about the societal norms and the consequences they might face when breaking those norms. Teach them about the rules and what you expect of them.
