Paragraph comparing my parenting with French parenting

My own parenting is similar to French Parenting. In Education, French parents send their children to school and they don’t participate in school’s activities. For example, they only go to school if there is an appointment. Similarly, I will send my children to school and I won’t try to involve in school’s activities. For example, if the teacher asks for someone to help to sell snacks, I might not be available for that. Regarding Discipline, French parents consistently raise their voices and even their hands to their kids to teach them who the boss is. For example, if a kid is misbehaving, his mom will scream at him. I also want to teach my children I am the boss, but I won’t raise my voice. I would try to explain them why they have to behave well, and I would try to encourage them to behave well with prizes. For example, if my kid hits other kids, I will tell him what that is wrong, and I won’t give him a prize. My own parenting, same as French parenting will encourage the kids to obey the parents, and study in the school without too much parents’ involvement. Another characteristic that French and I have in common is Values. French parents value tradition a lot. For example, they have the tradition of the roles, so the parents work and the children study. I also value tradition, I think tradition has survived because benefits the society. But I am flexible if a change is required. For example, even though I respect the role that the parents don’t involve in school activities, I would participate in a school’s activity if it is really required.

Paragraph Cause and Effect: It’s difficult to socialize for stressful children

The ability to socialize for children is diminished by the level of stress in their environment. It’s not surprising that stressful parents make the child stressed. When parents fight, the children get really scared, that’s one of the worst things a child can witness. Definitely, a bad relationship between parents can cause great stress to children. Stressful parents can also affect the children before birth. According to Sharon Begley “scientists have found a link between parental stress in early childhood and the condition of their children’s DNA”. The child experiences can leave marks on Child’s DNA, according to those studies.  Moreover, a child needs to have a place to relax alone. Kids need their time alone to play and use their imagination, it’s part of their childhood. Other important aspect is that a good communication between parents and child enables a good learning environment. if parents have a good communication, the child will feel safe to asks questions and clarify his doubts without fear. A good environment is important for the children’s socializing. If the child is safe and happy in his house, he will project that outside, so it would be easy for him to socialize.
