Hey admin, please hide.

This other day I had a conversation with my children whilst eating. I said something related to porridge using the word bota, they all laughed at me. I later on discovered it was used here on social media for avoidance of explicit language on an adult show. Ndakufunga kuti maybe my children are exposed at an early age or ndini ndasara ndiri primitive, how can I feel good about street vocabulary especially ndichiinza kuvana vari below 15?

Hate speech can harm children, communities, and societies. Research has found that targets of hate speech can experience negative emotional, mental, and physical consequences. These can include low self-worth, anxiety, fear for their lives, and even self-harm or su***de. Some types of hate speech are prone to incite violence. This “dangerous speech” follows specific patterns that cross societies, time periods, and type of targeted group. Stop Hate Speech.

With positive parenting, you should find ways to make expectations clear without being pushy. Be clear about actions after disrupting boundaries to enforce the importance of rules. Show that following rules leads to good outcomes.

Descriptions help kids to know that you have their attention. It lets them know you are interested, which helps to boost self-esteem. Providing consequences and boundaries shows responsibility and accountability. Specific lines and consequences ahead of time show a child the importance of following rules. Consequences should not shock them.

Regardless, boundaries and rules should be presented in a positive way.

Give children attention and praise when they follow instructions. Show attention for positive behavior and try to limit attention for bad behaviors like tantrums. Teach your child other ways to show they are upset. Praise children for good attitudes. It is best to centralize the praise of what the child does and not on what they didn’t do. For example: “what a great job you did figuring this out”.

For older kids, be clear of expectations and goals when there is a conflict. While showing respect and still maintaining authority, listen to their input on how they feel a goal should be achieved.

As a parent set clear limits on your child’s behavior. Sit down and have a family discussion on the family rules in your home. Let your child know what the consequences will be if they break the rules. Rules should be few, fair, easy to follow, enforceable and positively stated (e.g., Stay close to dad in the store, use a pleasant voice, wash your hands before meals.)

Positive parenting is all about making child-rearing choices that reflect your beliefs and values as a parent, your child’s age and stage of development, and his or her temperament. It means taking an approach that is sensitive to children’s individual needs and addressing the typical challenges that arise in early childhood with empathy and respect.
