Set Limits and Be Consistent With Your Discipline
Discipline is necessary for every household. But it must not be too strict. Set rules to help them to choose acceptable behaviors and to learn self-control.
Make Time for Your Kids
Spend quality time together. You can eat breakfast with your child or take a walk after dinner. You can also create a “special night” to be together and let your kids help to decide how to spend the time.
Be a Good Role Model
Young kids learn from their parents that’s why you try to be a good role model to follow. Before you lash out or blow your top in front of your child, always think about how your child takes it.
You should model those traits that you wish to see in your kids.

Make your expectations clear. Express your feelings, and invite your child to work on a solution with you.
