    Working women who are mothers have added responsibility of raising her children. Bringing up children and making them good human beings is not an easy task and many mothers who are working generally cannot bring up their children properly due to over load of responsibility of both job and family and as a result the children gets spoilt. However, it is quite difficult to raise children while working outside. Here are some parenting tips for working women.

    Make yourself perfect: Children always look upon their moms and imitate them so it is important to make yourself perfect before trying to make your kids perfect. Moms are always the role model of their children and if you want to inculcate good qualities in them, you should inculcate it within yourself first and by doing so, your kids will definitely become perfect seeing you and following your values.

    Show what you talk about: Show the values and beliefs of your life to your children instead of just talking about them. Show them that you live upto what you talk about. Just talking about it will not help you to inculcate the values that you believe but by showing it and displaying it in your actions, you will be able to inculcate them in your kids and help them in becoming good human beings.

    Apologize for your mistakes: You are not a super woman and committing mistakes are human so at times even you will commit mistakes but do apologize for it. This will help your children to learn that it is important to say “sorry” for even the smallest mistake. This will help them even in the future and lead a good life. Show them that apologizing will never make them small in front of anyone rather it will make them better.

    Make them do their homework themselves: Let them be independent and make them do their homework themselves. By doing this, your stress will be relieved to a great extent as well as they will not be dependent on you. They will understand their responsibility and will grow up as responsible persons.

    Let your kids learn from their mistakes: Never cover up the mistakes that your children commit. Let them learn from their mistakes and faces situations as this will make them independent as well as help them in future to handle situations in better way and help them mature. Do not remind them to do stuffs, they will do it on their own as and when it is required. For instance, do not remind them to take lunch; they will take it as and when they are hungry.

    Teach them to pack their own bags: It is important that you teach them to pack their own school bags according to the timetable. This will not only help you to get out of the stress and worry of all these but also will make them independent and more responsible. Doesn’t worry about how they will manage but let them learn from their mistakes and this will make them more responsible.
