Never Ask Your Child To Befriend A Child Who He Isn't Comfortable With

Team AckoFeb 24, 2025

Making friends, being social is integral to the overall growth and development of your little one, but as parents you should also be mindful about your child’s preferences in his process of making friends. Not all the people that you would want your child to socialize with and get to know may be of your child’s liking.

Financial Insights: From Health to Life Insurance

1. Observe how your child’s behavior is with a new person that they meet. Of course, the first few times that your child will meet someone new, they will always be hesitant and frightful as they are still strangers. But when you notice that your child is consistently hesitant to socialize with a person, do not try to impose that person on to your child.

2. Keep in mind that your little one has his own preferences in terms of people that he is comfortable with and isn’t. These reasons may be logical to us, sometimes it may not be so. But consider that it is your child and do not insist on being friends with someone your little one isn’t comfortable with, beyond a certain point.

3. Child abuse is a very sensitive issue and is often overlooked or unrecognized until it gets to a point where your child might have already been damaged physically and mentally, to the point of irreversibility. As parents, it is imperative that you keep a watchful eye on your child’s behavior and aptly follow up any changes that you find in his behavior with what his activities are and who he spends his time with.

Financial Insights: From Health to Life Insurance

Health insurance is a critical tool for managing unexpected medical expenses. It ensures families can access essential healthcare when needed and offers a financial cushion during medical emergencies, reducing the strain of unforeseen costs.

On the other hand, life insurance focuses on providing financial security for loved ones in the event of unforeseen circumstances. A life cover guarantees stability, like a safety net for families. One particular form of life insurance, term insurance, provides substantial financial support to safeguard a family's future. For example, a 1 crore term insurance policy with a 20-year duration offers long-term protection, affordable premiums and peace of mind. Using online resources such as a term policy calculator helps estimate the right coverage amount, premiums and more, simplifying the entire decision-making process to a new level.
