These limits will also help to make them feel safety and security. Many parents don’t agree with setting rules, but they regret on later stage because those kids don’t comply easily. It leads to parent’s frustration and they have to beg them to convince. For some parents, it’s easy to set rules, but they fail to enforce them on their child. Once you make rules make sure your child adheres to them. It doesn’t mean you have to be strict all the time, but be kind in your response. Generally, kids learn from what they see around them. Hence first, you start following the rules so they come to know how serious you are about those rules. Besides all these things everything depends on the child because each child is different. Some rules work for one child doesn’t work with another. So, find out what works best for your child.

There should be no limit to love your child, but you also have to take care that your child doesn't become stubborn. It is advisable to develop a solid, but polite way to make and enforce household rules on your child. Don't create feelings of fear otherwise, they will be afraid to share anything with you.
