*Why Offering Your Child The Freedom To Make Mistakes Is Essential* ?

*At our Hasti school  we  strongly believe*  that *In education, learning without experiencing mistakes and failures is almost impossible* , ironically our education system is fundamentally based on the idea that *everything that is not perfect is a mistake*.

*At our Hasti School we give freedom to children  make mistakes and we advice to the parents to give this freedom of making mistake to their children  *This may seem like a counterintuitive parenting strategy *, but letting your child make mistakes is one of the best things you can do for them. *Watching your child struggle or fail at something may be difficult, but it’s important to remember that making mistakes is a crucial part of learning and growing*.

*Imagine someone who is just learning to walk.   *when you learn to walk, you just fall over a lot. There is a lot of ‘failure’ in learning to walk* because *not being perfect from the start is what any kind of learning is all about* .

*Learning without the freedom to make mistakes can feel like walking on a tightrope above a shark tank*, There is  huge amount of stress, anxiety, fear and mental health issues students experience ..

*Is it okay for kids to make any or only specific mistakes* ?

Well, it depends on the child’s age, maturity level, and the severity of the mistake. For example, it might not be a good idea to let a very young child play with matches, but it could be okay for an older child to make a small mistake like spilling milk.

Why is it okay for kids to make mistakes?

Here are some of the reasons why it’s essential to let your child make mistakes:

1. *It helps them learn from experience*.

One of the best ways for kids to learn is through experience. If they’re never allowed to make mistakes, they’ll never have the opportunity to learn from them. Creating and correcting errors is a crucial part of the learning process.

2.*It allows them to explore their independence*.

Making mistakes is a natural part of becoming independent. As kids grow up, they’ll need to learn how to make decisions on their own. If you’re always there to catch them when they fall, they may never know how to stand on their own two feet.

3. *It builds their character*.

Making and then owning up to their mistakes can be a valuable character-building experience for kids. It teaches them responsibility, accountability, and how to deal with the consequences of their actions.

4. *It helps them develop a growth mindset*.

Creating a “growth mindset” in kids—the belief that their intelligence and abilities can be developed through effort, good teaching, and perseverance—is one of the best things you can do to succeed in school and life. Allowing them to struggle with new challenges and make mistakes is one way to help them develop this mindset.

5. *It shows them that you trust them*.

When you allow your kids to make mistakes and take risks, it sends the message that you trust them to handle whatever comes their way. This builds their confidence and self-esteem, which will help them in all areas of their life.

*The takeaway is this: we should allow our children to make mistakes. Of course, some boundaries and lines shouldn’t be crossed,* but allowing them to explore and learn from their own experiences is integral to helping them grow into successful adults.
