The Importance Of Good Parental Care

Good parental care is important in raising a well disciplined and behaved child. Parenting is one of the most essential and important skills that people must have before they bring a child into this world, unfortunately some people do not have this skill. As a result, badly behaved children are raised, and those children grow up without any parenting skills also. The quality of parenting that a child receives is a very important factor in deciding how behaved and successful the child will be in the future. There is a direct correlation with the problems of the parents while raising children to how children are emotionally and physically developed will be in the long run.

This quote shows that Nathan truly believes that he is the reason for all of the arguing that his parents are going through. When children see their parents fight they can feel very scared and unprotected, because they have no one to go to, to feel safe. The kids might be worried that one of their parents will hurt another during the argument. The kids might also feel like the parents are arguing because of them, and that they are the problem their parents are very upset. And worse of all, parents that constantly argue might want to take out their anger on someone else, and if the only other person in the house is the child, that will be them. Beating a child is never acceptable, and that will leave serious emotional and physical problems for them in the
