Parents are the first teachers of the children; the children learn the same as what their parents do at homes. Therefore, parents should always be the best guide, coach, instructor, mentor, and teacher. Since every child is unique in the world, they have different characters, hence, they need to closely monitor the children and their behaviors, progress, and areas they need to focus on. Parents should play, eat, enjoy, and do other things together with the children.
Furthermore, parents need to create conducive learning environments for the children at homes, treat both the boys and girls equally and play vital roles in mental, physical, educational, and social development of their children. Hence, parents should be very much conscious of the overall development of their children by engaging with them rather playing with smart phones and other gadgets for a long.
Besides, they need to help doing homework, reach out the schoolteachers as required, for the educational development of their children, regularly participate in the parents meeting and provide constructive feedback to the school family aiming to create enabling learning environments at school.
