Having a baby is amazing because it feels like a clean slate.
Your baby loves you unconditionally. They have no idea about your past and naturally love you for being their parent. They don’t ask for a resume to be their parent or perform a background check. They aren’t materialistic; it’s just pure love.
Conversely, the parents’ love for the baby is exactly the same. It’s a new and fresh life, in which you deeply love from day one. Both of you have clean slates. You can teach your kid anything and help them become anything they want to be.
I believe self-improvement is key because a child learns most from your actions. It’s important to try to eliminate your bad habits or anything you wouldn’t want your child to do. It’s truly the circle of life because your kids grow as you grow.
If you don’t grow, you can expect your child never to grow and develop in that area either. You already have a clean slate, so the best thing you can do for your child is to strive to be the best version of yourself.
Also, have patience with your child because many of the traits they need to fix and improve in life, they inherited from you.
Even if your relationship with your parents wasn’t good, that’s fine. Perhaps they never received the correct traits and nurturing from their parents, and so on. The good thing is you can break the cycle right now and show your children something different.
