A woman shared some kind and helpful advice she got after becoming a parent. Some of the advice might seem a little different, but it’s also sweet and meaningful. You can watch a short video to see what she learned—and how she’s now sharing it with other parents.
Being a parent is one of life’s greatest gifts. Kids bring joy, laughter, and love to any home. But being a parent isn’t always easy. Like most good things in life, it takes hard work, patience, and time.
Sometimes, parents don’t know what to do in tricky situations. And sometimes, parents make mistakes. That’s okay—parents are human too.
In the video, the woman talks about advice that helped her during those hard moments. It’s about small, thoughtful things parents can do to show love and make their kids feel safe and special.
One idea is to talk about your child in a positive way when others are around. For example, say things like, “He’s so brave,” or “She’s very kind.” The text in the video says, “It will become their inner voice.”
Another sweet tip is to “argue” with your spouse—in a fun way—about who gets to do something special, like put your child to bed or hold their hand. This playful moment helps your child feel extra loved.
The video also says, “Never be the first to let go of a hug.” Let your child decide when they’re ready to stop hugging.
Kids grow up fast. One day, they’re in your arms. The next, they’re heading out into the world. These small actions can create memories your child will carry forever.
