Parenting is one of the most challenging roles one could ever have yet the most fulfilling task on earth. Raising kids is not easy especially nowadays that kids are very fragile because of social media influence and peer influence.
As a parent that always wants good for their children, there are ways how to encourage them to be the better person they must be in the future. It always started at home and your words of encouragement will be their guide.
Here are simple sentences you can tell them, it might be simple but could mean a lot.
This is just a very plain and short sentence but could mean a lot to a child, this connotes that you believe in your child that they can do it, showing trust to your child can give confidence to them, so you must practice saying it more often.
These words of encouragement can enlighten your child, it can give them a sense of assurance that you have their back whatever fight they have.

Always acknowledge their efforts in helping you, in that way, they will never hesitate to help you in any task or anything because they know you will appreciate their little efforts.
Sometimes children will face some difficulties, not all the time they will excel in all aspects but telling them that you know they are doing their best can enlighten them and console their feelings.
I will continue part two of this since it may take a long, so I planned to cut it into two parts, next would be the other 10 sentences that can encourage your child.
If you are not yet a parent then, just skip this lol. Kidding aside you can apply it to yourself as well, you can always encourage and support yourself its one of the aspects of self-love.
