Many parents today turn to computers, tablets and other electronic devices as a means to keep their kids entertained and occupied. There’s no cleanup, and kids can remain quiet for hours on end as you do the dishes, wipe the dust and even have some time for yourself. Sounds like a fairytale, right?
Early family relationships teach young children important social skills. Children learn how to behave in society by observing how their parents treat them as well as each other. And this is why family bonding times are so important. By being in the moment, spending time together and showing affection and respect, you can strengthen your relationship with your children and give them a sense of self-worth. When children grow up in a household that prioritizes bonding, they tend to have more empathy and form strong and better bonds with others in the community.
