These 5 things that come out of the mouth of parents become poison for the child; who knows they may never forgive you

I wish I had more time for myself

Many parents get tired of raising children and on top of that, household responsibilities make them exhausted. Many times, they get angry and shout that they wish they had a little more time for themselves. It is absolutely right for you to say this, but talking like this in front of the child can make him/her feel that he/she is a burden on you or is coming in the way of your happiness.

we can’t afford that

Many families have problems related to money, but telling a child directly that we cannot afford it can create financial insecurity in the child’s mind. Instead, tell the child that right now you are giving importance to other things and also talk to him/her about saving.

you happened by mistake

Children need love and they expect their parents to keep them around. Telling the child that you were a mistake can raise questions about his/her value and existence. Instead, you can say that even though he/she is an unplanned baby, he/she is the biggest happiness for you.

Life is unfair

It is true that life is full of challenges but telling a child that life is unfair can make him/her pessimistic about the world. he/she may develop a feeling of helplessness. Instead, the child should solve his/her problems. Along with the difficulties, focus on the opportunities for growth and success as well.
