Children who are the soul mates of our future successors and stories are often likened to white paper, holy from birth, and therefore what religion they want to be, what they become and what their future will be, depending on how to color them. a child grows based on the intensity of his parents' attention, because parents and children are a bond in the soul, even though they are separated in body, the souls of the two become one in a bond, and this bond exists in the form of an emotional connection and is reflected in the child's behavior. Education from parents who can provide a strong foundation to fortify their children so that they are not wrong in the association in the future. Family education has a very big role in growing children. Because this is where for the first time children get informal education from both parents and their environment.
Every child must have a different character. Knowing the character of our children is not easy, not all parents can recognize the characters that exist in all their children. Here parents need to carefully examine and understand the character that is in the child's soul. Knowing the character of children is not easy, not all parents can recognize the characters that exist in their children because there are so many kinds of characters or personalities that exist in children, including being shy, naughty, creative, friendly and so on. however, knowing the character of the child is something that must be done by parents. By knowing the character of the child, parents will be able to guide and direct their children, so that learning activities in the family environment will run well and get results.
The family is the primary and first educational environment for children so that the role of parents is needed to explore the potential of a child. Of course, as a parent, it is important to know the potential of children from an early age so that you can direct that potential as well as possible so that it is maximized along with the development and growth of children.
Here are the two most effective ways to explore children's potential.
Observe activities and establish communication with children.
if you really want to explore the potential that exists in children, try to find time to observe children's daily activities. Observe the habits that are often shown by children or what things are fun for children, because this is more interest in the behavior shown.
In addition, it is also very important to build communication with children.
Communication between children and parents is the basis of how parents and children form their relationship. The potential of children can be seen from the form of communication between parents and children that has been developed since early childhood. Building communication with children does not only involve talking, but also parents must listen to children, discuss so that children are encouraged to express their ideas and opinions on something. So, two-way communication can occur between parents and children.
I've read pamphlets. "Exploring potential, Building foundations, Developing generations, Carving achievements".
I think this is important for all of us to apply in children's education. the first thing to do is to explore the potential of the child, then build and develop the potential of the child gradually according to the level of age and ability to achieve achievement. The achievement referred to here can also be interpreted as the success of the child.
Every parent needs to be reminded that they should not be too pushy in providing education to their children and determining their life goals. parents should encourage and help children so that their potential can grow well by controlling and directing. Don't let there be a misunderstanding, the potential for children to become teachers while parents direct them to the arts. This makes children uncomfortable and their potential does not develop optimally.
