YOUR WEEKLY FATHERING TIP: ENCOURAGING PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS AND OPEN-MINDEDNESS

  • Develop your children’s problem solving skills eg. don’t always provide answers to questions but encourage and help them to find the answers
  • Don’t let your kids become too fixed in their thinking about politics, people or life
  • Teach your children to question what they hear at school, on TV and read in newspapers – help them to work out what they think is right, eg whilst you are all watching TV or eating dinner
