this article is very beneficial i think not only to mothers or to child care-takers, but to all human beings , every adult however related to the child should put these topics into practice, giving children tasks and trusting them with the tasks, ofcourse its important to overlook them from afar to avoid injury etc but this encourages the child that he/she is capable of performing works, and then to educate but not tire children in their education , a time for education and a time for play , if its forced then their is no benefit , education should be made enjoyable not a burden .
lastly i agree that adults are all childrens role models but i believe that we adults have a helliva load to learn from children too , by nature its all things that we should know but as we grow up we forget.
