All children are the same while are growing. Their curiosity can kill the cat. They ask question after question and have the stamina to ask and more. You will rarely find parents complaining that their kids do not ask them questions.

When they go to school, their questioning does not stop but it only increases. It is here that some teachers demean or curb children who ask questions because sometimes it is not possible for them to control the entire class. When they come home they ask parents the questions they could not get an answer at school. Sometimes when parents have had a bad day at work they stub them away.

All these factors contribute to the child’s decreasing curiosity, motivation and learn to adjust and stop asking. Student motivation mainly begins at home. You have to develop a healthy atmosphere at home. Develop their attitude to ask questions, think logically and debate on issues so everyone has their point of view.


This way your kids grow in an environment that is conducive to their curiosity. If you cannot take their constant questioning then hold contests at home and give points to the one who will answer them. Questions that can be researched on one’s own should be given lesser points. This way the children will try to find their own answer and all you have to give is a listening ear.

You can also give summer projects to your kids or take them on an excursion during their summer holidays. This way they get first hand experience of different careers and are not only well read but know about the job. In this style you infuse your kids with more knowledge and they can think for themselves when time comes to choose a career.

Never underestimate the potential of a kid. And never feel low to ask a kid if you do not know about something. After all knowledge is to give and take else it will only rot. So ask your kids what you don’t know. Buy them books. You don’t have to go bankrupt to give them the world.


You can let your kids earn a book a month by doing their household chores or let them join a library. Think smart and all things fall in place and you will have kids you are proud of.
