Many parents these days opt to use video games, movies, and television as preferred forms of entertainment for their child. This is partly because it is more convenient for the parents. However, the problem is that these forms of entertainment do not really do a great job at teaching the child to be creative. Toys are much better for that. It is better to try to limit the child's exposure to television and instead encourage them to find ways to entertain themselves using toys.
Being around your children a lot can be very stressful. Make sure you take time out for you. Plan a dinner date with a good friend, go for a long walk to go to the movies by yourself. That little time away will be enough for your to recharge and be the best parent you can be.
Don't watch scary movies with your children! Studies have found that scary movies cause children to suffer from nightmares, phobias, and a need to be attached to their parents. Wait until they're old to enough to handle the scary images or you might inflict them with permanent fears into their adult life.
A parent's job is never done, but making it through those first 18 years is a not so difficult. There are a million things that we can learn about how to parent but the most important thing is that whatever you do, you do with love. Keep learning, and keep loving and your kids will be the better for it.
