It is important to guide the behavior of your child at an early age, or they will have a hard time later. The rules you give to your child and continue to stick with will shape who they are and how they behave. Be sure not to micromanage your child and allow them to make their own choices as they get older, so they can learn how to be accountable.

5. Give them Freedom of Independence

While it is important to set limits for your child to give them a sense of self-control, you should also encourage independence to make their own choices within those limits. Allowing them to make their own decisions develops self-direction in them. Don’t mistake their need for independence as disobedience. It is natural for them to want control over their life instead of someone else having control over them. The less independence you give them, the more they are going to push for it.
