10 SUGGESTIONS FOR FAMILIES FOR A HEALTHY FUTURE

1. Read something to your children every day.

Start reading something to your children after the 6th month. In this way, you will show them the importance of communication and encourage the habit of reading. Research has shown that the vocabulary of a child who is read to by his parents every day develops at an early age, his thinking ability and therefore his creative intelligence improve, and his listening and speaking skills improve. In addition, receiving physical closeness and attention from the mother or father along with reading will make the child feel loved and make him feel better.

 

2. Carry out a security check in your home to protect your child from home accidents.

Systematically review your home from room to room with the child's eyes and eliminate the traps that await your young children. During this scan, keep in mind poisonous substances, drugs, small objects, sharp corners, knives and firearms, and places where you may fall, and take the necessary precautions. Store especially medicines and toxic substances at a height out of reach of children.

 

3. Provide your child with a smoke-free environment.

Smoking at home increases middle ear and respiratory tract infections in children, paves the way for the development of asthma and causes 'crib deaths' in early infancy. Remember that the most important factor that determines whether your child will smoke when he grows up is your smoking. You may not be thinking about your own health, you may not be able to get rid of cigarette addiction, but let's at least allow our children to grow up healthy in a smoke-free environment.

 

4. Follow vehicle safety rules.

Every time you get into a car, make sure everyone in the car has fastened their seat belts. Children in the back seat should be seated safely and appropriately for their age. Use seats suitable for babies. Make sure that children under the age of 7 do not sit in the front seat (especially in vehicles with airbags).

 

5. Prevent violence by reinforcing good behavior.

Turn Nagging, insulting and beating teaches children that their problems with other people can be solved by attacking them. Non-violent discipline becomes more effective over time. Remember that words can also hurt your children. Reinforce good behavior with praise.

 

6. Make sure your child has received all age-appropriate vaccinations.

Review your child's vaccination card with your pediatrician. In the first 6 months, make sure that three doses of Diphtheria–Whooping Cough–Tetanus (mixed), polio and meningitis vaccines have been completed, and a total of three doses of Hepatitis– B vaccines have been administered. The main purpose of vaccination studies is to prevent people from dying from vaccine-preventable diseases and to ensure that the generations to whom we will entrust our future grow up healthier. Remember that the best protection against diseases is vaccines.

7. Monitor your child's 'media'.

Watch what your child watches on television and cinema and what music he listens to. Children are affected by what they see and hear. Talk to them about the content of what they watch. If you feel that a television program or movie is not suitable for him, gently direct him to a more suitable program.

8. Be more involved in your child's school and education.

Do not leave your child's education solely to school administrators and teachers. Visit your child's school. Be active in teacher-parent organizations. Help your children with their homework. Consider that just as you have a share in your child's success, you can also have a share in his failure. Your child's education will be as important to him as it is to you.

9. Pay attention to their diet.

Nutrition makes a big difference in how your child grows, develops and learns. Good nutrition is the basic rule for a healthy future. Your child should eat foods from several food groups at each meal. Choose less processed foods such as whole wheat bread, cereal, fresh fruits and vegetables. Review your child's nutrition plan in line with your pediatrician's recommendations.

10. loved by your children Make them feel that they are important and important.

Children develop a sense of personal value from the early period of their lives. They get this feeling from their parents. Listen to what your children mean. Be careful to ask his opinion when making a decision about him. Make them feel loved and safe. Celebrate their individuality, tell them they are special and appreciated. Hug your child every day and tell him/her that you love him/her often.
