Effect Of Mindful Parenting On Children's Self-control

2020 is a year when the "school-family-society collaborative education mechanism" becomes a national development plan and visionary goal,and with the opening of the national three-child policy,family education has become more and more important to the whole society.Early childhood is the core stage of individual self-control development.The successful development of self-control ability is beneficial to the future socialization of young children.The self-control ability of young children can predict their future academic performance,interpersonal skills,and socialization to a certain extent,and their future financial problems,adult health,and criminal behavior are all closely related to the level of self-control ability.The family is the main source of self-control ability for young children,but previous studies have focused on the influence of family parenting styles on young children's self-control ability in family education,with less empirical research on parents' Mindful Parenting concepts.For young children,Mindful Parenting is a positive factor in the development of self-control ability,and Mindful Parenting emphasizes non-judgmental acceptance of young children,which helps to enhance their sense of security,and a sense of security in early childhood can promote better development of individuals,and thus their self-control ability may be higher.Based on this,we speculate that the cognitive concept of parents' Mindful Parenting is conducive to improve children's self-control ability.It mainly improves children's behavior tendency of self-control ability by promoting the emotional demand mechanism of children's sense of security..In order to test this hypothesis,this study explored the relationship between parents' Mindful Parenting,children's sense of security,and children's self-control ability,and proposed corresponding countermeasures in order to provide countermeasures for family education and kindergarten cooperation,and to bring insights for the establishment and improvement of the school-family-society cooperative parenting mechanism.A total of 382 children and their parents in two kindergartens in Haikou were selected as the subjects of this study,and the data were collected using the questionnaire method,and the main findings were as follows.(1)The self-control ability of toddlers was not high,below the medium level,and the self-control ability of males was lower than that of females;the level of parents' Mindful Parenting and the level of toddlers' sense of security were at the medium to high level.(2)Parents' Mindful Parenting level,children's sense of security and self-control ability were mainly influenced by parents' age,occupation,education and kindergarten type background factors.(3)The Mindful Parenting scores were positively correlated with the children's self-control and security scores.(4)Parents' Mindful Parenting level can significantly and positively predict the level of children's self-control ability..(5)Perceived safety partially mediated the process of Mindful Parenting in promoting self-control ability in children.Based on these results,this study proposes to pay attention to the current situation of children's low self-control ability,especially the cultivation of male children's self-control ability;We should promote the learning and application of parents' Mindful Parenting through a series of activities of home cooperation,so as to improve the level of parents' Mindful Parenting;Kindergartens can carry out security intervention for children with low level of self-control ability to promote children's sense of security;In addition,government departments also need to strengthen the management of private kindergartens and improve the educational ability and quality of private kindergartens.
