10 Smart solutions to save time, energy and nerves of parents

Being a parent is not easy, especially when you are too responsible and self-critical parent who wants to be perfect in everything. Mom and Dad, you need to relax, and here are 10 great ways!

Sometimes you need to be simpler and more cunning. Do not waste all your strength and nerves for nothing, relax and enjoy life, parenting, another sunny day. It's so simple.

10 ways to save time and strength of parents: 

1. Instead of forcing the child to eat vegetables, put a plate of chopped peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes on the table and eat from it. The child is sure to ask what the adults have on the plate.
2. Instead of constantly asking and reminding the child of some responsibilities, write a note and hang it in a prominent place. Magnetic board on the refrigerator - an ideal option!
3. Instead of running after the child and being nervous, trying to persuade him to dress, hurrying and resenting that he again began to play with his toe - prepare the necessary things and give the child the opportunity to dress himself and then you to call for a walk. 
4. Instead of repeating the order of actions a hundred times (when dressing, cleaning toys, etc.) - draw a bright poster with arrows and hang in the children's room. 
5. Instead of regularly scolding the child for the same offense with the same words, come up with a short code word and say it in a "terrible" voice. For example, ХРЮ - if the child sloppily eats. 
6. Instead of asking the child to take the truck off the kitchen table or things forgotten on your bed every day, put a box at the entrance to the nursery and send all illegal migrants there every evening.
7. Instead of constantly helping the child turn on the light, water, reach for toys in the closet - buy him a light stable stool.
8. Instead of screaming through the whole apartment or playground, something important - make sure that the child hears you. 
9. Instead of trying to persuade someone to wear a sweater that is not loved by a child or get angry because of half-eaten cereal - learn to take seriously children's preferences. 
10. Instead of worrying about what the child does not know how, can not, do not want - accept it as it is and patiently teach. Adults can not influence everything, but we can not waste time on nonsense, but focus on the joys of today. In the end, no one has married yet, unable to read. All in good time and do not need to force events.
