Pt. Vijay Shankar Mehta

If you are a parent, understand the dangers of children’s behavior patterns in time. Nowadays, it is commented about children that their screen time has increased, so they have become irritable. But this is not the only reason.

The mental state of the parents can also be the reason behind the change in the behaviour of children. Parents should also work on themselves. Pay attention- Firstly, is your child doing ‘ghosting’, i.e. is he/she silent without any reason. Second thing, has he/she become more irritable.

Thirdly, he/she has started liking staying outside more than staying at home. And fourthly, if your children are refusing you on every matter, then be careful. Find these four weaknesses within yourself as well, whether you were like this at that age. And prepare accordingly.

This is a delicate phase in the relationship between parents and children. And at this time joint efforts will have to be made. Parents should improve themselves from within more than they should try to improve their children.
