At this stage, you could expect some challenging behavior from the child as well, be it throwing tantrums or not eating enough. The important bit is to acknowledge the child\u2019s feelings. Encourage him or her to put his feelings into words and assure them that you are listening. However make it clear that while his or her feelings are acceptable, inappropriate behavior is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Set_clear_rules_boundaries\"><\/span>Set clear rules &amp; boundaries<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Very often, to make up for the absence of the other parent, you land up relaxing a host of rules for the child. Do remember that clear rules and boundaries, in fact, give the child a sense of security. It is therefore important to be consistent with your rules and to follow them through. This, of course, isn\u2019t in any way to suggest that you set up harsh rules just because you are a single parent. The rules need to be age-appropriate and relevant. You also need to choose your battles carefully so that you do not land up draining yourself on small issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Make_the_most_of_everyday_moments\"><\/span>Make the most of everyday moments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bedtime storytelling, board games, an adventure trip- there can be enough and smaller moments that you can relish together. Ever so often, the mistake we make is that we look for big markers of happiness when happiness really lies in making the most of the day-to-day moments. Talking about the child\u2019s favorite things, offering praise, and having authentic conversations, can all ensure that your separation or single parenthood does not become an overarching theme for the child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Routine_helps\"><\/span>Routine helps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing that helps children cope with change is routine. It is predictability that can go a long way in lowering stress. Whether it is a bedtime routine or even a weekend routine, ensure you build in as much predictability in their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Build_a_support_system\"><\/span>Build a support system<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a single parent does not mean that you have to literally handle everything alone. Build a strong support system of family and friends. It ensures that the child has people around and also that you have a support mechanism and are not left overwhelmed. In fact, do make it a point to ask for help and not get subsumed with the desire to be a super parent and manage everything yourself. If there is one thing you need to learn, it is that it is okay to ask for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Teach_gratitude\"><\/span>Teach gratitude<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Above everything, it is important to instill an attitude of\ngratitude in the children so that they do not view life from the perspective of\nlack. You need to teach the children to appreciate what they have. This can be\ndone in various ways, the most important of them being walking the talk.\nEncourage the children also to maintain a gratitude journal where they pen down\nwhat they are thankful for, every single day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make some time for yourself. This may not sound like typical parenting advice but will impact a host of things in life including parenting. You cannot give from an empty cup, they say.
