 Basic postulates
of children’s upbringing
There are five principles:
• All children are born pure and innocent;
• Parents have a duty to teach and
instruct their children;
• Parental instructions and guidance are
provided with kindness and mercy;
• Children need limits;
• Children need responsibilities.
 1. All children are born pure and innocent
• A child cannot be blamed if he does something bad.
• A child cannot have an internal intention to act badly - this is possible only if he
repeats the actions of adults, puts into practice what he learned from others.
2. Parents have a duty to teach and instruct their children

• The child came into this world recently and

does not yet know his duties.
• His inner nature tells him to be virtuous, but it
must be supported.
• A child copies, first of all, the parents.
 3. Kindness and mercy are the basis of upbringing

• One of the qualities of a good mentor is caring for the mentee.

• Parents should be able to properly take care of the child, be tolerant of his pranks, find the strength to
forgive him and explain what is good and what is bad.
 4. Children need limits
• A child needs clear limits that would regulate his behavior and determine his freedom of action
and the limits of what is acceptable.
• If a child knows no limits, then he tries to find them in his own way.
 5. Children need responsibilities

• Responsibility skills contribute to the formation in the child of a sense of independence and at the
same time a sense of self-importance, develop in him a sense of belonging to the family and
society, responsibility for his actions.
• This should be taught from an early age, gradually, adding responsibilities as the child grows older.
