Like snowflakes and fingerprints, no two children are exactly alike. Each thinks, feels, and interacts with others in his or her own way. Some children are timid and shy and some are outgoing. Some may be active while others act more calmly, and some are fretful with others being more easygoing. No matter what makes your child an individual, you should celebrate these qualities as a parent and make them feel good about the things that make them unique.

One way of celebrating uniqueness is to encourage your child to express his own personality. There are a variety of artistic options available, such as theater, dancing or art, but this expression might also come in being very good at science. Children should be brought up doing the things they like, are good at, and that interest them. Often, they will feel pressured to do things just to be “like everyone else.” Help them come to realize that what really matters is that they are happy.

You can help your child learn to make the best choices for themselves by praising them for their good deeds, behaviors, and traits. Find activities they can get involved with in their own communities, especially ones that encourage them to cooperate with others and appreciate their own accomplishments.

If your child does something wrong or misbehaves, you should be firm but fair in taking action. When giving discipline, make sure your child understands the rules they have broken and why they face consequences for breaking them. Act in coordination with your spouse to show a loving and united front on this matter, as it will help your child come to terms with punishments.

Always keep in mind that your child is an individual and should be able to have his or her own preferences and feelings, even if they differ from your own. Finally, be true to yourself so your child will be true to himself. As your positive choices can teach them, so can your negative ones. Through your own mistakes, let your children know that these aren’t something to be ashamed or embarrassed about, but rather that they can be great learning experiences for you both.
