The time we dedicate to our children, rather the time that we do not dedicate to our children, has a negative influence on their behavior.
We talk about both quality and quantity, as a study published in Child Development reveals that the less time a child spends with his mother, the more likely it is to develop aggressive behaviors.
Research on child care and development in the United States has concluded that the more time children spent in a daycare center, the greater the possibility that their teachers would report behavioral problems when they were in sixth grade.
Thus, they discovered that the time the children spent with their mothers and the greater dedication in the preschool stage, the better the school results of the children.
In the same vein, we recently learned of other research with similar conclusions: the time we dedicate to children, especially in the first three years of life, benefits the child's brain development.
In Babies and more, we always emphasize the importance of the hours we dedicate to children and encourage them to spend as much time as possible with them.
It is the eternal conflict of the reconciliation between work life and family life, but I think that especially during the first years of our children, the priority is to dedicate them as much time as possible to lay a solid foundation in their personality.
