Developer Encourages parents to ‘get involved’
Parents can play a crucial role in raising responsible and well rounded kids.
It is in fact their duty to provide their children a conducive environment that will allow them to thrive and succeed later on in life. As parents, they act as the kids’ first teacher who will guide them and nurture them.
There is no denying the impact of parenting skills on a child’s behavior in the future. According to parentalrights.org, children who have parental support are likely to have better health as adults, earn higher grades, have better social skills, be socially competent and have better communication skills.
Hence, it is necessary for parents to play a more active role, get involved and know their children better. And this summer may be the perfect time to do so with kids now on a school break. Here are a few suggestions on how you can bond and spend some quality time with your kids.

Get involved
As parents, it is your responsibility to get involved in their lives and teach them things that they would find useful in the future. However, being involved doesn’t simply mean meddling in their daily affairs, but more of giving them an assurance that you’re there when needed.
A child whose parents are involved during their formative years has shown great potential and have proven to be successful in life. By nurturing them and providing them a conducive, healthy environment you make your child feel that he or she is being valued. In return, children who feel that they are loved grow up to be more compassionate and giving.
