טיפים לאבא גרוש - Tips for divorced fathers

google translated:

Since I divorced six months ago, I had to struggle hard to take care of my 3 year old son independently. Now that I am master of myself I have had to transcend myself and find "methods" of convincing the child to listen to me, of course with as much spirit as possible.

he did not agree to eat or barely touched anything on the plate even if it was something I knew he liked - my solution was to suggest that he prepare the meal with me and participate as actively as possible (if possible) to bring something from the refrigerator, to squeeze Together with an orange, cut vegetables when I hold his hand and so on. My child (and in my opinion a lot of other children) very much likes to be operated in such a way and after finishing, he suddenly has a new urge to eat something too.

At first I had a lot of problems with his desire to take a shower and he was never enthusiastic about the idea and preferred to skip this important stage of the day. - My solution was to insert a plastic toy or a new bottle or anything that was not destroyed into the water. This incentive would have caused my child to move from an anti-"I do not feel like it, I do not feel like" situation to his eyes light up and he ran to me and jumped into the bathroom enthusiastically!

There is a known problem with children, many of whom do not tolerate the act of shampooing. My kid has a long hair and that's his mast, so I could not give it up. The most important thing is to buy shampoo without tears - this is a very significant difference in how the child will get this splash of water with the shampoo. If this does not help and the child is still anti, you can also wash your head manually with your hand instead of the pedal along with running water - the shampoo without tears drops very quickly from your hair and there are no traces left.

Another "bath issue" is known to convince the child to get out of the bath after a reasonable time that he is there and not ready to go out of his fun. In my case I mistakenly told him that if he stayed too long in the bath he would have "duck skin" - of course it was a mistake that "duck skin" was related to the cold response. But even after I've fixed the skin wrinkled, the boy has already understood the idea and every time since - as I remind him of the subject he immediately jumps me straight to the towel resolutely.

Brushing your teeth - one of the things kids are least enthusiastic about doing is that it's basically a chore and there's nothing really fun about it. In this case I just remind him that whoever does not brush his teeth will just fall his teeth and that's enough - is there anything wrong with that? :)

Sleep - here I will not be very original and only say that reading 2-3 short books before bedtime does much to persuade the child to come to bed and curl up in a blanket.

I have a lot more but that's enough for now :)
