Bad Parenting

Whether or not they are doing a good job is something that parents worry about all the time. However the truth is that all parents worry about the same things and have problems with the same things.

When it comes to bad parenting most of the time it is a matter of opinion. Some people may think that putting a child in reins is the same as putting a dog on a lead where as others would see it as a form of safety. Some parents don't have a routine for their children and let them go to bed when ever they want and see it as letting them have freedom and responsibility, whereas others have very regimented routines and see it as keeping their children healthy and well organised.

There are horrible stories of parents making fatal mistakes, such as a the news story of a toddler who accidentally shot herself because she mistook her step dad's gun as the toy Wii gun, as he left the real gun lying on the table. This could obviously be called bad parenting as it was irresponsible for the man to leave his loaded gun within reach of a toddler.

The programme Super Nanny shows Jo Frost turning the lives of people around as they struggle to cope with the parenting issues. Supernanny.com has got lots of links and tips on how to be a better parent.
