The time for school exams, the latest calls and summer holidays come. As a rule, it is at this time that the child spends the maximum amount of time outside the field of vision of the parents: with a grandmother, in a children’s camp, at home or somewhere else. It is very important that your child would be independent and could serve himself at least to a minimum.
It is necessary to accustom a child to independence from childhood. Caring for him is one thing, but his preparation for adulthood is a completely different concern, no less important and valuable. Very often there are parents who do not allow their child nothing: to go to the store, to include gas, nor something else, believing that he is still small and he can’t do this yet. This is not a very correct approach, because, the child needs to be accustomed to everything from childhood.
The question is different: you need to do this intentionally and under the strict guidance of parents. You need to start by telling him how to cross the road and how to get to a particular store. What you need to buy and what is not. How to learn to count money and in general, what to buy if the house has ended in the house.
Also, the child should be able to make elementary actions in the house: prepare a sandwich or cook eggs, how to remove for yourself, who can be let into the house and who is not, how to behave with gas or electricity. Having such a seemingly very small baggage, your child can already do some time without adults.
