Childhood is a special point of life with its characteristic developmental phases starting from the new-born period until its culmination in adolescence. The formative years are expected to initiate the smooth and mellow transition to mature adulthood. The remarkable physical changes from childhood to adolescence are matched with a complete metamorphosis of every aspect of the child’s mind and intellect. Childhood is a very important period wherein appropriate development ought to occur without any deviations or distractions. If not, it can lead to severe behavioral and psychological problems in adolescence and adult life which are greater in magnitude and become a lot more difficult to manage.

Far back, the 17th century had identified children as miniature adults, differing only with regard to the brain size; hence they had diminished capability of doing what adults do and think how adults think. Subsequently the child’s mind was characterized to be ‘Tabula Rasa’ which means blank slate on which the environment would add its influences to destine the child’s future. Today neurodevelopment has allowed the pediatric mind to gain its own identity with its own characteristics and developmental segments, which are traversed from time to time, in order to achieve the mature beauty of adulthood.

Parents play a critical role in the overall development of their child. Sometimes it is just impossible to know what’s going on in your child’s mind. Their behavior seems erratic, actions unacceptable and questions, exasperating. As much as we fail to realize it, children are great with understanding but relatively poor with expression. Parents need to know the techniques to comprehend how and why children behave (or rather misbehave) and what they are truly meaning to express instead of dealing with their misconduct purely with an emotional response. This gives a chance to pick up the warning signs of an impending problem so as to take appropriate steps to correct it well in time. Parents need to be better informed on ‘parenting’. They have the best intentions for their children but seldom the appropriate action to assure the optimal outcome.
