[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the best things you can do for your child are: - Teach them basic life skills - Don't be a helicopter parent - Teach them empathy by showing them empathy - Expose them to a variety of people A kid raised with these values is more likely to grow into an independent, motivated, kind and empathetic adult. Those qualities will get them way further ahead in life than a piano prodigy or a bi(or tri-, quad-, etc.) lingual kid who needs mommy to do his laundry.[/quote] From a parent who does all of the extras listed in the OP - I completely agree! And most of these things require spending quality time with your kids.[/quote]
