Parenting can be a daunting task but it can be simplified to a great extent by being a role model for them. Your child observes you and learns from your behavior and actions. After all, every parent is a role model for his/her child by default. The real challenge is to provide the child with positive examples. So, don�t just tell your child to be fit and do just the opposite yourself by sticking to an unhealthy lifestyle. Rather, practice what you preach. Following are some useful behavioral tips that can help you become a role model for your children and let them learn some life skills, which will make them stay fit as well:
- Show respect for yourself and others
- Maintain a positive outlook
- Practice constructive communication skills
- Work on anger management
- Teach the worth of health
