Parents must lead by example and provide guidance from "summary" of Hold on to Your Kids by Gordon Neufeld,Gabor Maté

Parents are the primary influencers in their children's lives. They are the ones who set the tone for how children should behave and interact with others. Children look up to their parents as role models, observing their every move and learning from their actions. Therefore, it is crucial for parents to lead by example and provide guidance to their children. When parents lead by example, they demonstrate the behaviors and values they want their children to emulate. Children are more likely to follow the lead of their parents when they see them practicing what they preach. This means that parents must consistently model the behaviors they expect from their children, whether it is being respectful, kind, or empathetic. In addition to leading by example, parents must also provide guidance to their children. This involves offering support, direction, and advice to help children navigate the complexities of life. Parents are there to help their children make sense of the world around them and to teach them valuable life skills. By providing guidance, parents can help children develop the necessary tools to become independent and responsible individuals. This includes setting boundaries, establishing rules, and offering feedback to help children learn from their mistakes. Through guidance, parents can help their children grow and thrive in a safe and nurturing environment.
  1. Parents play a crucial role in shaping their children's behavior and values. By leading by example and providing guidance, parents can instill important virtues and skills in their children that will serve them well throughout their lives. Children look to their parents for guidance and support, and it is up to parents to provide the love, care, and direction that their children need to succeed.
