　　Being a good parent is, of course, what every parent would like to be. But defining what it

　　means to be a good parent is undoubtedly very 1 , particularly since children respond differently

　　to the same style of parenting. A calm, rule-following child might respond better to a different sort

　　of parenting than, 2 , a younger sibling.

　　3 , There’s another sort of parent that s a bit easier to 4 : a patient parent. Children of every

　　age benefit from patient parenting. Still, 5 every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy 6.

　　Sometimes parents get exhausted and frustrated and are unable to maintain a 7 and composed style

　　with their kids. I understand this.

　　You’re only human, and sometimes your kids can 8 you just a little too far. And then the 9

　　happens: You lose your patience and either scream at your kids or say something that was a bit too

　　10 and does nobody any good. You wish that you could 11 the clock and start over, We’ve all been

　　there:

　　12, even though it’s common, it’s important to keep in mind that in a single moment of

　　fatigue. you can say something to your child that you may 13 for a long time. This may not only

　　do damage t0 your relationship with. your child but also 14 your child’s self-esteem.

　　emotional control for your kids. We are all becoming increasingly aware of the 16 of modeling

　　tolerance and patience for the younger generation. This is a skill that will help them all throughout

　　life. In fact, the ability to emotionally regulate or maintain emotional control when 17 by stress is

　　one of the most important of all life’s skills

　　Certainly, it’s incredibly 18 to maintain patience at all times with your children. A more

　　practical goal is to try, to the best of your ability, to be as tolerant and composed as you can when

　　faced with 19 situations involving your children. I can promise you this: As a result of working

　　toward this goal. you and your children will benefit and 20 from stressful moments feeling better

　　physically and emotionally.
