how is your relationship with your little kid and teenager

well relationships should be maintained in the family and community for peace and harmony. we generally talk of man and wife, father and grown up son, between friends, boss and subordinate relationships mostly. But i feel the best a relationship is to be maintained is between a parent and his/her toddler and an adolescent child because both are not mature, have less knowledge of world, tender, get affected easily.

Your small kid needs to nurtured and make understand things with love and affection so that they know what is good and what is bad.

Teenagers need to be handled with utmost care. Adolescent age is such that children are neither small nor big. They behave as if they know everything and need not be told for each and every thing. Parents should be friends with their teenagers and should not give orders but pacify them and explain them in a gentle way.

Of course there is always a line which the parents may have to cross to tackle little undisciplined children.

What do you all say?
