Contribution of grandparents to well-being

Children's ability to have good feelings towards themselves is closely related to the emotional transfers of the people who enter their lives from the very first period. Mothers, fathers, grandmothers, grandfathers, neighbor aunts, neighbor grandfathers... In fact, the emotions we internalize between the ages of 0-3 and 3-6 form the basis of our emotional and physical health in our lives. The foundations of children's self-confidence are formed at this age. It is important for a person to be at peace with himself first. A person who is at peace with himself feels worthy of being loved and can exist by coping with the situation he encounters and expressing his own feelings and needs. Being a self-confident and happy child is possible by meeting the child's basic needs during this period. To be loved unconditionally, to know that care needs such as nutrition and cleanliness are met without being invaded by adults, to feel safe, to learn that it is normal for one's rights and existence not to be violated, to develop consistent relationships, to have good feelings, sometimes prayerful and sometimes joyful, for oneself and others, to be patient, Being fair, valuing people for who they are... And many other healing emotions are the transfers of wisdom that people need most today. I am one of the few people who still have the chance to live in the neighborhood. The children in my neighborhood build castles on the road, although not as much as when I was a child. He argues from time to time. And their uncle Yaşar, the 45-year-old grocer of the neighborhood, reconciles them. As the grandfather of everyone, he conveys his love and affection to children in a dynamic and cheerful way. At the same time, Mr. Yaşar, as someone's brother and someone's neighbor, greets us with his smiling face and good wishes while commuting to work. Even though I don't know any of the aunties who are 70 or older who pass by my street, they accept my good wishes such as good morning and have a good day. There is an architectural office at the beginning of my street. It is a place located in a stylish and historical texture, where I think people work in an environment where emotions such as design and aesthetics are involved. I wish good evening etc. to the young people who are leaving that building after work in the evening and preparing to return home. Sometimes they startle with surprise and sometimes with fear. And no one responded with a well-wishing sentence yet. Nowadays, warm feelings are replaced by big feelings. It is not possible for people to replace what they need most to be happy, warm emotions, with brands and consumption, while leaving them to spaces and emotional distances. It is possible to be instrumental in transferring good feelings from generation to generation and increasing well-being exponentially. This is in our hands. Parents should not forget that adults can convey the joy of life, wisdom and compassion to children. One of the biggest missing information of today's young people is respect for experience. And I think it will add great value to them if they experience benefiting from experience and trying to understand it at a younger age. Therefore, bring your children together frequently with elders who have a lot of positive energy and good feelings. As children grow up, let them leave beautiful and warm traces in their memories and emotions. All these good experiences will turn the value of family ties into a beautiful picture in your children's memories. Thus, while your child becomes an individual, he will also experience the state of well-being, the self-worth and confidence that comes from being loved and valued unconditionally. Children record the emotions they experience since the womb in their emotional memories. For a child like me, who lost her grandmother at the early age of 7, it is a good thing to be the grandchild of a well-remembered person who brings a smile and helpfulness to her adult memory. Although I can add a few travel memories and the feeling of compassion I received from her, I sometimes wish I had had many more memories and feelings about my grandmother, Kamile, when she left this world at the age of 56. It's a pity that we didn't live in the same city back then. At the same time, I have an elder who left a positive mark on my childhood and youth. My uncle's 80-year-old mother, Ms. Sediye. The grandmother who became a child and dreamed with us and added liveliness to my life. It is very pleasing that there were other wise aunts who came into my life with kindness during my childhood. Some people have now left this world. The joy of life and tolerance I received from them continues to grow in me and spread as teachings I share with others. There are some points to consider when applying the thoughts and feelings I have shared so far. Namely;
Children, parents and other adults need to be consistent and compatible regarding emotions and behaviors. rekir.
 Even if there are disagreements, it should never be discussed in front of the child.
Making the child feel very valuable, always keeping his/her emotions high, and sometimes taking all the attention, makes the child feel worthless.
 Sometimes, putting too much emotion on the child and waiting for quick answers without waiting, tires the child.
 A healthy child has very high emotions, It is to keep children in a balanced environment without exposing them to excessive messages or insensitivity. Mothers, fathers and children should support children to develop relationships with adults. At the same time, adults should not abandon the child emotionally just because they provide care and spare time. Parents have a special place. Grandparents have a special place. Finally, while your children experience understanding their elders' emotions, they may sometimes encounter unpleasant emotions. If their age is appropriate, it can be a lesson in trying to understand the feelings of an elderly person who gets angry easily. However, trying to understand should not mean having to accept.
