Educating and raising children is not an easy task. When they are very young, parents invest their efforts by teaching them all kinds of behaviors, whether those related to how to tie their shoes and wear their clothes, or how to catch a spoon well to eat properly. As children grow and gain independence, we forget to teach them some things that will be essential to their future.

And the author, Antonia Torres Gutiérrez, considered in a report published by the Spanish magazine "Bikia Padres" that raising children is a full-time job, from birth until they become adults.

Things are a must
In addition to learning basic values ​​from a young age, children should learn other things that will help them grow and develop all their abilities.

The author indicated that there are basic things that children need to learn to deal with any environment, even when you are not there for them to take care of everything. In this way, children become adults and independently able to solve any problem on their own.

Cooking
It is one of the basic skills that many mothers and fathers miss. Nowadays, children leave home, study in other cities or countries, travel with colleagues and develop completely differently than they were several decades ago. Therefore, for children to feel full and eat well and in a healthy manner, it is necessary that they be able to do it themselves.

Feel free to teach them some basic techniques and how to clean and prepare some foods as well as teach them cleaning standards to avoid food poisoning. And don't forget to teach them everything that can help them become self-sufficient in the kitchen when they reach their teens.

Home Economics
Children do not know where the money comes from or what is spent monthly. They are not aware of the value of the money, which is what they should learn before reaching adolescence. Therefore, the concepts of savings, spending and salary are necessary for children to be able to assess money and consumption in a responsible manner, and to be aware of what it costs them to earn money.

the responsibility
Children should learn to be responsible for their actions and be aware that everything they do has a result. The responsibility is also to respect the rules and carry out their duties, whether through caring for their belongings, academic training, or future work. Therefore, it is important to teach the child how to be responsible.

Passion
Empathy is an advantage that cannot be learned without a teacher, given that children need to recognize their emotions as well as the feelings of others. Empathy is the ability to place yourself in the other's place, and it is an essential value for being able to interact with others in any social environment.

The development of empathy is important in the lives of children, given that this will not only make them focus on themselves, but also to be able to appreciate all living things, whether they are like them or those who differ from them. We cannot fail to recall that the education of children does not end when they grow up, it lasts for life.
