Parents of the Murmansk region told about the important stages of growing up

Forming independence in a child is important from an early age. The first steps to independence are taken by children around the age of two, when they begin to insist on doing their usual activities without the help of adults. However, parents often interfere with this process, trying to do everything for the child. This was reported to Federal Press.

Separation begins with simple household skills: dress yourself, choose classes, clean toys and perform feasible household duties. As a child grows up, he learns to make decisions, take responsibility for his actions and defend personal boundaries.

Adolescence becomes one of the important stages of separation from parents, but not the beginning of this process. Independence is formed gradually and depends on how ready adults are to give the child the opportunity to act on their own.

Full separation from parents usually occurs by the age of 18-20. If an adult continues to rely on the opinions of their parents, it may be difficult for them to make decisions, manage money and take responsibility for their lives.

Parents are advised to take into account the age of the child, gradually expand the range of his duties and do not rush to intervene if he tries to cope with the task on his own. Mistakes and failures also become part of learning.

Earlier, MK in Murmansk reported that more than 470 million rubles were received by families of the Murmansk region from maternity capital for children.
