Help them to understand that you admire their choices and decisions that they want to do with their life. 2 When they get to a certain age, give them some space and freedom, they will love you for it. 3 Let them do what they want to do but give them boundaries. If they set foot out of the boundaries, talk to them about how you feel about it. Be honest and open. 4 The more you give, the less their love. It can become stifling. 5 Maybe family meetings is good to air out any problems in toe. 6 Keep communication open, make sure that you can be someone that they can come to for anything. Talking is good. 7 Be there for them when they want. You need to be approachable for them. 8 Imagination is more important than knowledge, help them by experimenting with different things to get a wide range of things. 9 Make sure you and everybody in your family are equal, this will help to see you more as another person. This is essential because then they can see more about how to be a good rounded human being. People often forget that everyone else are people too. 10 Most importantly help them to make a good belief system. This makes the person be more wiser to the fact that others have different beliefs. Plus constantly tell them that you believe in them. This gives them the motivation to do anything they want successfully. Hope you enjoyed reading this.
