A different approach towards music and tv shows for kids
Parenting to every person is different and holds different
principles. Instead of figuring out what is right or wrong, we need to focus on
what's working for us, what's helping us create more positivity, more strength
and creativity in our kids.
There is too much stress on being in the race, doing things that others are
doing. And in this, we are unable to show them a different path. We fear to
pick any different route in our kids' growing time in the desire to be
accepted.
I am sharing with you two points that have helped me in parenting, and even
though the approaches were slightly different, they showed results.
1. Play good music: Nowadays, some of the music we have is full of
foul language, objectifying with no meaning left in lyrics to understand.
Expose your kids to the oldest possible music you like, giving them a more
extensive base to choose from and figure out what they want.

If we keep playing only that music we hear around us, they will never get to
know something existed before this; and once they start listening to music on
their own, they will already have a firm mindset of what they like. At this
point, the old songs might appear dull and slow. Show them what good songs are,
how meaningful lyrics can be, and leave them to choose from later.
