Make Your Family Ties Stronger

Parents, who have better ties with their kids, often manage to do it because of the quality time they spend with them. Spending time with your kids, indulging in little chit-chats tend to make your bond with the child stronger. So how to do that? Parents can take a concrete step towards this goal by scheduling fixed time duration on per day or per week basis. Make sure it’s on a one-on-one basis. Just you and your kid. This thing will not only strengthen your ties with the kid but also deepen the attachment. This step has several benefits like the opportunity to know innermost feelings of the child. It’s a known fact that a kid is more comfortable in sharing his most personal feelings when he or she is along with the parent. It’s difficult for child to express his emotions when he/she is with the sibling. He feels more vulnerable in such conditions. So make sure to have him talk to you in private. Another positive effect will be sense of value in importance that the child will feel. He will get the feeling that my parents value me more than anything else and they want to listen to me. Imagine the high, he/she will get.

Another wonderful suggestion to make your ties stronger with family is to think of a family activity together each week or fortnight. It could be anything like doing puzzle, playing a game, watching family videos or some outdoor activity etc. both parents can think of several such ideas and execute them and the end result will definitely make you feel very satisfied.
