Children should be encouraged to join voluntary organizations.
These voluntary organizations go a long way in molding the character and behaviour of children.
Parents and guardians have the responsibility to ensure that their children and wards engage in indoor and out door games.
Indoor Games : Scrabble, Monopoly, Ludo etc. Outdoor Games : Table Tennis, Volley ball, Handball, Football, Athletics etc.
Sadly, in a number of societies, parents aid and abet their children to commit crimes.
Voluntary Organizations 1)The Boys Scouts Association 2) The Girls Guide Association 3) The Red Cross Society among several others.
Cooperation / Self Relliance
Cooperation is the act of working together with others to achieve a common goal or objective. Working together ensures positive development in society. COOPERATION AT HOME As children, it is imperative for us to cooperate with other members of our family, in order to make the home a better place. Children must assist in : 1) The kitchen 2) Caring for their younger ones. 3) Caring for pets. 4)Cleaning the home and washing utensils 5)Going on errands. In the same vein, the Father must fulfil his domestic obligations, which include providing shelter, feeding and clothing. In addition, the Father takes care of all the financial bills of the children, while the Mother takes effective care of the home. In some societies, the reverse is the case. This is worrisome. COOPERATION AT SCHOOL Children must always be punctual and regular in school. Children must also do all their school work, be it academic or non-academic. The need to cooperate with classmates, class monitors and others should be inculcated in children. They must obey rules and regulations of the school. BENEFITS OF COOPERATION 1)Children who cooperate are not punished. 2)They are obedient, all the time. 3)They make sure they do all their class and homework. 4)They also carry out any other assignments given to them in school, without complain.
Self Reliance is reposing confidence in one's ability and efforts.
This should be developed in the early stages of life, which definitely will be the basis for all individual accomplishments.
Such attitude goes together with focus and hard work.
A person who is self confident does not wait on others, when it comes to decision making and problem solving.
