Time is moving very fast and is also changing rapidly. This change of time has also brought about a change in handling relationships. Nowadays it is seen that today's generation is going differently from their parents in technology and thinking, due to which a generation gap is being seen between the two and it is also affecting their relationship. Due to this generation gap, parents are unable to understand their children and by the time we can understand, the estrangement between parents and children starts. In such a situation, to maintain a good relationship with children, it is important to remove this generation gap. Today in this episode we are going to give you some such tips with the help of which you will be able to handle this situation well. Let's know about them...

Give them time.
Even if you are working, give full time to the children. In today's time, working parents often fulfill every wish of the children but are unable to give them the love of their parents, due to which the relationship of children with their parents starts weakening. In such a situation, if you are also working, then spend time with children during weekends. Take them on a picnic somewhere or you can get the children to do any of their favorite activities.
It is necessary to keep an open mind.
What your child thinks will be different from your thinking and behavior. But parents get angry or worried about this because they have already gone through that age. Parents think that they understand the needs and feelings of their child, but the truth is that when you were at their age, the circumstances were completely different and perhaps even comfortable. Therefore, you need to keep your mind open and your thinking broad. You should understand that today many such things are socially accepted which were not there in your time. To understand and know your child better, it is necessary to have an open mind first.
Listen to them
If your child makes a mistake or fails a test, then the parents get on top of him. They don't listen to him at all about why he did that and what situation he was going through. If he gives his opinion or tries to express his views, then you silence him thinking that he is arguing with you. But this doesn't happen, you should listen to him too.
Try to understand
Mutual understanding is very important for improving any relationship. If the parents are not able to understand what the child wants or what he is doing, then it can be said that they are not good parents. Instead of always giving an example of themselves, children should be encouraged to set an example by doing something good in life. Sometimes parents need to understand their children and always stand by them. Sometimes children should be allowed to do what they want to do.
Love your children a lot.
Many times children worry about their future or their future, which leads to irritability in their behavior. If we are unable to understand what the child is going through, instead we start scolding him. You should not do this, this can increase your child's irritability even more.
Become a friend of children.
Be a friend of your children, never let them feel that there is a big difference between your age and theirs. Teach them that children should respect you, but instead of behaving like elders, try a little to think like their age. If you remain a friend of the child, then your relationship will become even stronger.

Make it easy to hear no
Two people living in the same house can have different ideologies and choices. Your child is not a machine that agrees with everything you say. Your child can disagree with you. This should be as normal as anything else. If you associate it with your ego or stubbornness, you will never be able to understand the feelings of your family.
