The following are 8 basic tips for parents, caregivers or guardians to strengthen and maintain good parenting for their child.

1. Do not undress in front of your child when they reach the age of 2 or older.
2. Learn to ask your child to step aside.
3. Do not allow anyone to call your child “boyfriend/girlfriend”, “my wife/husband” or “my spouse”.
4. Whenever your child goes to play with friends, make sure you follow up to find out what they are playing, as these days even children teach each other dirty games.
5. If your child shows reluctance to go to someone, do not force them, and also investigate closely to find out why.
6. It is advisable to watch any movie yourself first before allowing your child to watch it.
7. Teach your child how to clean their private parts from the age of 3 and warn them not to let anyone touch those parts.
8. Teach your child the value of living without following the crowd. If your child complains about someone, do not stay silent.
