How to Parent Your Child to Become a Responsible Adult

December 23rd, 2009

Each and every parent wants their child to grow up being a self confident adult and a good adult as well as better human being that the parents actually are. To help our child become a responsible adult we as parents must ensure that we behave like responsible people. We have to adjust psychologically and emotionally well to set an example for them.

Try to communicate with your child. There should be a strong connection between the child and you, and then your child is automatically going to obey the family rules. The first and foremost thing is to make your child understand that nobody is perfect in this world. As long as you live, you can always learn. Teach your child to say sorry. Teach them to admit when they are at fault and to admit when they have a weakness nad in doing so they can be a better person.

Make sure that even you, as a parent, can say sorry for your mistakes. You should teach them to be honest and to never lie. Honesty means telling the truth. It means that you should not mislead others for your own benefit. If you want to preach this, you must set an example your own self.

Do not abuse, swear or physically abuse your child. They are going to grow up assuming this to be the normal way of life. Set a good example for your child and pick your words wisely. You should always allow your kids to spend time with other family members like the grandparents, uncles, aunts and so on. This is because they all play the part of role models and leave a valuable impression on the child. Through grandparents the child also comes to know about the roots, family values and so on.

Even if the grandparents pass away you as a parent should always talk about your relative. With your teenage kid, you need to make certain rules. Do not put the computer with internet access in the child’s room so you can always keep a watch on their surfing actions. Always make sure to find out where it is that they are going to. Although your child might not like this in the beginning you have to do this to ensure the good of your child, after all you are the parent and you will know better.

After this she had many short lived roles on television before she finally got her breakthrough role in Clueless as Tai in 1995.

After this her major role was in the movie called 8 mile which was opposite Eminem. Now apart from movies she also gained quite a bit of fame when she was dating Ashton Kutcher and this was when they were filming their movie Just Married. Although this relationship didn’t last, Murphy still kept her dating life very active.

She had also been engaged quite a number of times. The first one was to her agent called Jeff Kwatinetz and then the production assistant of the “Little Black Book”, Joe Macaluso and then she finally landed up marrying her screen writer Simon Monjack. The wedding had taken place in 2007.

Now this “sweet” (that’s what almost every one of her co stars have used to describe her) actress was loved by everyone. According to Clueless co star, Alicia Silverstone, “I’m so saddened to hear this news. I loved working with Brittany. She was so talented, so warm and so sweet. I always felt connected to her and we shared a very special experience in our lives together. I feel love in my heart for her and hope she is at peace.” Eric Roberts, her co star from Spun says, “Another sad, sad loss. She was a sweet, smart girl and a real actress.”
