¥ow, Your Child
Parents Concerned
About Themselves
y DAVID NYDICK
UPI Education Specialist
Too many parents are more
concerned about themselves
than the real welfare of their
children. Although this self
concern is not consciously
intended to harm their children,
it is unfortunately the result in
many cases.
The desire for prestige Is
probably- the most common
reason for decisions which are
in reality selfish. In any
decision regarding a child’s
welfare, extreme care must be
taken to reach the proper
conclusion without allowing the
parent’s pride to become the
basis for such a decision.
How would you react to a
recommendation by the school
that your child be retained in
his present grade? I have
listened to many parents object
on the grounds that the
grandparents would be terribly
disappointed. Other parents are
concerned with how it will be
explained to neighbors and
other relatives. Obviously, these
are not concerns related to the
child but rather to parental
embarrassment. Few parents
express the concern of how the
child will explain being left
back to his friends.
Special Classes
Another recommendation
which causes many parents to
rebel is that of placing their
child in a special class which is
designed to deal with emotional
disturbance, brain damage or
other handicaps. Again the
objection is not usually based on
the best interests of the child
but rather on the pride of the
parents.
Why do so many parents
pressure their children to attend
prestige colleges? Unfortun
ately, it is not always because
the particular college Is well
suited to the ability, ambitions
and needs of the child. Too

often it is so that the parent can
brag to friends and relatives.
There is certainly nothing
wrong with pride and pleasure
from a child’s accomplishments.
The problem is when decisions
are made on this basis rather
thna a realistic evaluation of
the child’s needs.
Unitentional Harm
Parents rarely intend to bring
harm to their children. The
harm is often the result of poor
judgment based upon emotion
rather than facts and logic.
It is not wrong to make
decisions as suggested above
when the decision is truly for
the best interests of the child. It
is wrong when parents refuse to
accept recommendations be
cause of their own pride.
As a matter of fact, the right
decisions will more likely lead
to success for the child and
good reason for parents to be
proud. The wrong decisions
often leads to more problems
and increased complications.
Parents must realize and face
problems which are disturbing
their children. There is a need
for parents to understand and
support their children in all of
their difficulties.
