Only Positive Examples
If you demonstrate an example to a child, that child will remember it for life, knowing that that’s the way to behave.
“I want to be The Terminator,” “I wish I were a mobster!” If these are the examples that they see, it’s no wonder that this is what they want to be.
Hence, the right approach is to always give them positive examples so that this is what they will aspire to become.
Until recently, we were concerned with showing children good examples through movies and stories. But the recent outburst of the ego has created a kind of deformity where the media has become the tool of education. And as for the media, only ratings count.
