Tips To Be A Better Mom

It goes without saying that mothers have an important role to play in their children's lives. Here are a few tips on how you can be a better parent to your child:

Respect and value your child:

Always respect your children -- respect and listen to their views and values, their opinions. Give them your complete attention when they want to talk to you. Put whatever activity you are engaged in on hold, and if that's not possible, set a time for when you can chat, and make sure to stick to it.

Encourage your children every opportunity you get. Make them feel special and express your love for them often. Hug them, kiss them and say 'I love you' everyday, not just when they are young but also as they grow older. Let them feel your love and affection as often as you can.

Talk to your kids:

Conversing with children is the best way to influence their ability and love for learning. Children who are spoken to often as infants will understand more words when they are toddlers and pre-schoolers than others. Communication also strengthens the mother-child bond and eases out the communication barriers, even as kids grow older.

Have fun with them:

Mothers are so busy with their day-to-day routines that they forget to have fun with their children. Take out one-on-one time to enjoy with your child. Do something that both of you like -- indulge in outdoor games, art and craft, board games, go for a walk, chat, cook -- do anything at all that makes you feel good. Laugh together, tickle each other, dance, sing songs, just have FUN!

Read to your little ones:

Reading to your children is the best way to inculcate a reading habit in them, which leads to a love of learning as they grow older. Reading also creates an emotional bond between parent and the child, whether it's lap-time reading, bedtime reading or any other way of doing it that you both enjoy. Moreover, it develops their imagination, creativity, vocabulary and communication skills.

Keep your children safe:

All parents want to keep their kids safe. Remember to take the necessary precautions, whether it is making them sit in the backseat of the car while driving, or making sure that there is someone responsible with them at all times. Make sure your home is childproof, with electrical outlets out of reach, furniture edges rounded off, glass items out of the way etc.

Teach your children values:

Make sure to impart good values to your kids -- it's the best gift you'll ever give them. Values are the foundation of a child's character. Teach your children values through everyday interactions, stories and by the way you conduct yourself. While story-telling, however, make sure you don't connect the story to the child. If, for example, you want to teach your little one about honesty, tell him/ her interesting stories related to it. Do not say, "You should behave in the same manner as so-and-so did and always tell the truth" -- the message will not sink in. To a youngster, this feels like nagging and moralizing, which will go in one ear and out the other.

Be a good role model:

Remember that your kids are watching you all the time and want to ape you in every possible way. Even very young children take in and listen to everything their parents say and do, so remain aware of your actions and behavior around them. For example, if you talk rudely to the domestic help, you will not be very successful in teaching your children the value of politeness. Model the behavior that you want them to develop.

Keep your kids healthy, but allow them their personal likes and dislikes when it comes to food:

Provide nutritious meals for your children, but allow them to make their own choices about what they like or don't like. As long as you are providing them with nutritious options and not junk food, they will almost always make the right choices. With young children, try and be creative with their meals, so that it's fun for them. If, for instance, there is cooked vegetable and chapattis for dinner, fold some cooked veggies into each chapatti so that the kids can enjoy it as a roll.

Set rules and limits:

A good mother is firm and flexible. Don't leave discipline only to a child's father. Set reasonable rules and limits and discuss them with your kids beforehand. Follow through with the consequences whenever applicable. However, there are times when you have to be flexible and ease the rules; times when youngsters are tired, sleepy, hungry or not well.

Be just and fair:

Treat all your children in the same manner. However, don't try to be overly fair, as it will get in the way -- for example, if you are out shopping and spot a book that one of your kids needs for a reference project, you do not necessarily have to buy something for the other child. Similarly, bring the other child what he/ she requires when it's needed. As long as you are providing for both of them equally, they will understand and not make an issue. When you try to be overly fair, children tend to find faults with every little thing you do.

Don't interfere in your children's fights unless it's necessary:

Allow your kids to settle issues on their own. As long as there is no bullying or physical violence, do not get involved in their fights. When you try to resolve their disputes, you will be required to take sides and this will not go down well with one of them. It is better to allow children to handle their own problems as far as possible. If they are not able to do it, or you feel like the situation is getting to you, ask them to play separately till they are able to be civil to each other and find a solution. You will be doing them a favor by teaching them the values of co-operation, problem-solving and compromise in the process.

Honor their father:

One of the best things a mother can do is Honor her children's father in front of them. Even if you are separated or divorced, never speak ill about your spouse in front of your children. Talk about him with respect and teach your children to respect him too.

Get the kids to interact with extended family:

Get your children to bond with extended family -- uncles, aunts, cousins. Make an effort so that they interact with both the maternal and paternal sides. Even if you don't get along with your in-laws, teach your children to respect their grandparents. They will hold you in higher esteem for doing that.

Keep your self-respect intact:

Always expect to be treated with respect by others in the presence of your kids and by your kids themselves. Do not allow anyone to cross a line. Maintain your dignity under all circumstances; be honest and keep your integrity intact always.

Take care of yourself:

Sleep well and take out time for yourself. Keep yourself in good health. Remember, a happy, relaxed mother can give more of herself to her children and family than an overworked, tense parent.

Interesting Interview.....Don't miss last Question !!

Some, rather most, organizations reject his CV today because he has changed jobs frequently (10 in 14 years). My friend, the 'job hopper'

(referred here as Mr. JH), does not mind it…. well he does not need to mind it at all.

 

Having worked full-time with 10 employer companies in just 14 years gives Mr. JH the relaxing edge that most of the 'company loyal' employees are struggling for today.

 

Today, Mr. JH too is laid off like some other 14-15 year experienced guys – the difference being the latter have just worked in 2-3 organizations in the same number of years. Here are the excerpts of an interview with Mr. JH:

 

Q: Why have you changed 10 jobs in 14 years?

A: To get financially sound and stable before getting laid off the second time.

 

Q: So you knew you would be laid off in the year 2009?

A: Well I was laid off first in the year 2002 due to the first global

economic slowdown. I had not got a full-time job before January 2003

when the economy started looking up; so I had struggled for almost a

year without job and with compromises.

 

Q: Which number of job was that?

A: That was my third job.

 

Q: So from Jan 2003 to Jan 2009, in 6 years, you have changed 8 jobs

to make the count as 10 jobs in 14 years?

A: I had no other option. In my first 8 years of professional life, I

had worked only for 2 organizations thinking that jobs are deserved

after lot of hard work and one should stay with an employer company to

justify the saying 'employer loyalty'. But I was an idiot.

 

Q: Why do you say so?

A: My salary in the first 8 years went up only marginally. I could not

save enough and also, I had thought that I had a 'permanent' job, so I

need not worry about 'what will I do if I lose my job'. I could never

imagine losing a job because of economic slowdown and not because of

my performance. That was January 2002.

 

Q: Can you brief on what happened between January 2003 and 2009.

A: Well, I had learnt my lessons of being 'company loyal' and not

'money earning and saving loyal'. But then you can save enough only

when you earn enough. So I shifted my loyalty towards money making and

saving – I changed 8 jobs in 6 years assuring all my interviewers

about my stability.

 

Q: So you lied to your interviewers; you had already planned to change

the job for which you were being interviewed on a particular day?

A: Yes, you can change jobs only when the market is up and companies

are hiring. You tell me – can I get a job now because of the slowdown?

No. So one should change jobs for higher salaries only when the market

is up because that is the only time when companies hire and can afford

the expected salaries.

 

Q: What have you gained by doing such things?

A: That's the question I was waiting for. In Jan 2003, I had a fixed

salary (without variables) of say Rs. X p.a. In January 2009, my

salary was 8X. So assuming my salary was Rs.3 lakh p.a. in Jan 2003,

my last drawn salary in Jan 2009 was Rs.24 lakh p.a. (without

variable). I never bothered about variable as I had no intention to

stay for 1 year and go through the appraisal process to wait for the

company to give me a hike.

 

Q: So you decided on your own hike?

A: Yes, in 2003, I could see the slowdown coming again in future like

it had happened in 2001-02. Though I was not sure by when the next

slowdown would come, I was pretty sure I wanted a 'debt-free' life

before being laid off again. So I planned my hike targets on a yearly

basis without waiting for the year to complete.

 

Q: So are you debt-free now?

A: Yes, I earned so much by virtue of job changes for money and spent

so little that today I have a loan free 2 BR flat (1200 sq. feet) plus

a loan free big car without bothering about any EMIs. I am laid off

too but I do not complain at all. If I have laid off companies for

money, it is OK if a company lays me off because of lack of money.

 

Q: Who is complaining?

A: All those guys who are not getting a job to pay their EMIs off are

complaining. They had made fun of me saying I am a job hopper and do

not have any company loyalty. Now I ask them what they gained by their

company loyalty; they too are laid off like me and pass comments to me

– why will you bother about us, you are already debt-free. They were

still in the bracket of 12-14 lakh p.a. when they were laid off.

 

Q: What is your advice to professionals?

A: Like Narayan Murthy had said – love your job and not your company

because you never know when your company will stop loving you. In the

same lines, love yourself and your family needs more than the

company's needs. Companies can keep coming and going; family will

always remain the same. Make money for yourself first and

simultaneously make money for the company, not the other way around.

 

Q: What is your biggest pain point with companies? (best one)

A: When a company does well, its CEO etc will address the entire

company saying, 'well done guys, it is YOUR company, keep up the hard

work, I am with you." But when the slowdown happens and the company

does not do so well, the same CEO etc will say, "It is MY company and

to save the company, I have to take tough decisions including asking

people to go." So think about your financial stability first; when you

get laid off, your kids will complain to you and not your boss.

Did you have a fight with your wife?

Santa walks into a bar and says, "Bartender, give me a shot of the strongest thing you've got."

He takes the shot glass and knocks it back. He then asks for another one and knocks that on back, too. After about five or six of these the bartender decides that he's going to cut the guy off.

Bartender says to Santa, "Hey, what's wrong with you? Did you have a fight with your wife or something?"

Santa sighs and says, "Yeah, after the fight she said that she wasn't going to speak to me for a whole month!"

The bartender, puzzled, says, "Well, what's wrong with that?"

Santa replied, "Well today's the last day!"

As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you gave me support. When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what?"

"What dear?" She asked gently.

"I think you bring me bad luck."

Pain of a married man!!!!!

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.

She goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him.

He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.

"What's the matter, dear?" she whispers as she steps into the room. "Why are you down here at this time of night?"

The husband looks up from his coffee, "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 18?" he asks solemnly. "Yes I do" she replies.

The husband pauses; the words were not coming easily. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the garden?"

"Yes, I remember" said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.

The husband continued.. "Do you remember when he showed the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I'll send you to jail for 20 years?"

"I remember that too" she replied softly.

He wiped another tear from his cheek and said, "I would have been released today!"

Do not stick with one job for a long time!

A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question.
The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop window.

For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said:

"Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the hell out of me!".

The passenger apologized and said, "I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much."

The driver replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver - I've been driving a van carrying dead Bodies for last 25 years...


MORAL:

Do not stick with one job for a long time!

NEVER CRY FOR ANY RELATION.......(This is 4 all my friends!)

 
  
  
 

Once, there was a guy, who was in love with a gal. She was the most beautiful and cute
but for him, she was everything.
He used to dream about her, about spending the rest of life with her. His friends told him,
"why do you dream so much about her, when you don't even know if she loves you or not?
First tell her your feelings, and get to know if she likes you or not".
He felt that was the right way. The gal knew that this guy loves him.
One day when he proposed, she rejected him.
 
His friends thought he would take wrong decision and ruin his life.
To their surprise, he was not depressed.
When they asked him how was it that he is not sad, he replied,
"'why should I feel bad? I lost one who never loved me & she lost the one
who really loved and cared for her."

NEVER  CRY  FOR  ANY  RELATION  IN  LIFE  BECAUSE  
FOR  THE   ONE  WHOM  YOU CRY  
DOES  NOT  DESERVE  YOUR  TEARS  AND  THE  ONE WHO DESERVES  
WILL NEVER  LET  YOU  CRY....................!!!!!

``` evOlution of microsoft windOws: 1985 ~ 2009 ```

 

 

It all began in Plaza Hotel, New York City on the 10th of November 1983. Two Microsoft founders Paul Allen and Bill Gates officially announced their corporation's first and next-generation graphical user interface operating system – Microsoft Windows. Despite the criticism on stability and constantly being compared to their rivals Apple Macintosh, Microsoft Windows is still the most widely used operating systems in the world. Windows 1.01 (1985) Officially released on November 20, 1985, this 16-bit OS that cost less than 1MB in overall is Microsoft's very first operating system that allows multi tasking with graphical user interface on PC platform that runs on MS-DOS 5.0. Windows 1.03 (1986) Introduced in 1986, Windows 1.03 is an upgrade to its previous predecessor Windows 1.01. Entire operating system cost about 2.2Mb hard disk space. Windows 2.03 (1987) Taking advantage of the speed of Intel 286/386 processor at that time, Windows 2.03 is a replacement for Windows 1.x. It also starts the era where users are able to overlap windows, customize screens, etc. Still the entire operating system cost no more than 2.5Mb. Windows 2.86 (1989) Windows 3.0 (1990) This is the third major released of Microsoft Windows with a improved set of Windows icons and applications like File Manager, Program Manager that is still being used in today's Windows. This 22 May 1990 released operating system is then replaced by Windows 3.1 two years later. Windows 3.1 (1992) Windows 3.1 is probably the earliest Windows most of us are familiar with. Windows 3.1 and later Windows 3.1x is an upgrade to Windows 3.0 with bug fixes and multimedia support. Windows NT 3.1 (1993) The first Windows New Technology (NT) introduced. It maintains consistency with the Windows 3.1, a well-established home and business operating system at the time, the new Windows NT operating system began with version 3.1. Unlike Windows 3.1, however, Windows NT 3.1 was a 32-bit operating system.
