When we believe that it is reasonable to expect too much or the impossible from our kids, we fall victim to the "perfect parenting" trap. Is it right to have our child work so hard in school that he becomes disinterested and unmotivated? In contrast to a regulated environment, humans perform and operate better in an open one. We tend to expect too much from our kids, forgetting that in their quest for perfection, they will eventually lose their individuality and smile.

In terms of etiquette and behavior, perhaps we have all idolized the child of a neighbor or friend. Even if they are inadvertent, persistent suggestions to be "perfect" like someone else's child can seriously undermine one's self-worth. The "perfect parenting" strategy is counterproductive to this method. You should not waste your time and energy striving to be a perfect parent since there are no perfect kids in the world. It is vital for parents and kids to take a flexible and accommodating stance that will permit crying and laughing after making mistakes.

The Elder's Viewpoint

Elderly people have kind answers that will seriously relieve you when you ask them about the pressure of "perfect parenting." They support raising kids in a flexible manner. My granduncle once told me to "let them make mistakes, get their clothes dirty, and let their shoes get muddy when they play." They will never be great players if they are concerned about maintaining clean clothes and shoes. Permit them to experience weak points and terrible days.

Let the siblings fight and quarrel over the things that annoy them. Trying to keep children out of fights and disputes will not help. They will be prepared to handle disagreements and conflict when they encounter it in the future.

Give up on your parenting goals because problems and blunders are an inherent part of life for both parents and children. It's not about how well you parented; it's about how you handle a problem. Just make sure you manage a challenging parenting scenario well. To raise a "good enough" child, this ought to suffice.
