dear ladies......... please share with me how to teach good habits to my dear daughter.........she actually obeys what we say at home...but when she mingles with our neighbor's kid who is very much ill mannered,she tries to imitate him(which is common in her age)...my fear is what if she becomes like him only..i see through it that she doesn't follow him. i try my level best to keep her away from him, whenever i can.but its not always good to keep her away from him na?he is such a kind of a kid that he doesn't respect others,is always mischievous,and no good behaviors........ please share some ways ...where i can convince her that its not good to all those things.........
Explain why the behavior is punishable and how the child may avoid this in the future. Hug and comfort them after the incident has passed as this will foster love and trust.
