It is impossible to come across a new born who does not trust his people, his surroundings. In fact, once comfortable their trust doesn\u2019t have any degree; they trust everyone in the same manner. But as they start to grow up and understand, they are introduced to MISTRUST. And more often than not \u2013 it\u2019s the parents who bring this on.<\/p>\n
Often, in order to get our work done with peace, without any interruption or tantrums from our children we lie to them.\u00a0 It becomes easier to take them to the doctor or slip away for a movie. So in short term \u2013 it benefits the parents but in the long run we are not only teaching our children to lie and manipulate us (using the same techniques) but also pass them the message that \u2013 My parents don\u2019t do what they say, that I can\u2019t trust them and of course it is okay to lie and hide things.<\/p>\n
So before your next vaccination shot \u2013 just tell your child the truth, give her a chance to process it and set the expectation straight \u2013 that there would be no compromise with this action. Assure her that it will be a small prick and a brave child like her would be able to deal with it.<\/p>\n
Once we start being truthful to our children at all times, it might cause us a little inconvenience in the beginning but this practice has huge benefits in the long run.<\/p>\n
