The Importance of Parental Cooperation

***

Success in educating and directing children requires cooperation between mother and father. Can't just lean to one side. It takes strength to achieve maximum results.

Not only in terms of providing education and habituation that must be done together but in all aspects.

Since the baby is born into this world both parents must start a good cooperation.

Like my experience in the early days after giving birth to the first child. When our baby woke up in the middle of the night and cried hysterically his father who was asleep was immediately awake and immediately checked the condition of the baby.

Change the diaper when the baby sees it wet because of toothpick or pup. After that it was just handed over to me to be given ASI. Such a thing is done for approximately 3 months in a row. Fight alternately during caring for and taking care of the baby.

Same with housework. When I have to focus on the child because sometimes there is a time when the baby is fussy and does not want to be left for a moment by his mother. So, the husband without being asked he is willing to replace the duties of the wife such as cooking, washing clothes and other domestic jobs.

Especially when the process of practicing toilet training to the little one. The support of my mother and father is much needed.

For example, the child said he wanted to go for a pup or pee, while I was on duty with a job in the kitchen. So his father sincerely offered help to the little one.

"Yuk! Pissing or popping in the bathroom with Dad." That's what his father said.

When the child looks thin, the mother is to blame. He said he could not take care and provide good nutrition for his son.

In fact, what's wrong with the father intervened to just feed the little guy and give the wife a chance to rest for a moment.

Oya, I've seen firsthand there are couples who are so compact. In the middle of the crowd at the wedding reception of his extended family. The husband painstakingly fed his one-and-a-half-year-old son. Even willingly while chasing his son because while running around here and there. While his wife was resting while lying down because of fatigue almost half a day guarding the child.

In instilling habituation and character education to children is also needed cooperation between mother and father.

Like the example of the mother asks and directly devote to her child in order to get used to saying please when you want to ask for something.

However, the father instead casually ordered the child without using the word please first. Well, this is what will make the parenting system becomes chaotic.

To be able to achieve perfect success in parenting to children, we as parents should establish communication first before determining the steps to be taken and must seek mutual agreement so that there is no inequality in the middle of the road.

If the mother chooses A, then, the father must be willing to say A to the child. Likewise vice versa if the father says B, then the mother must follow and compact.

For example, the mother does not allow the child to play mobile phones, so the father should never lend his gadget to the little one. With the hope that the baby does not experience confusion with the habituation and parenting that is being applied by both parents.
