To ensure optimal growth and development in children, maximum bonding between parents and children is very important. A strong relationship between parents and children can provide many benefits in terms of children's physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development.
MAKUKU together with Morinaga invited Billy Davidson as a dad Influencer, Dr. Reisa Broto Asmoro as a mom Influencer and Mutia A.P. Kusumah as a child psychologist to have an exciting conversation on Instagram Live with the theme "Maximum Bonding Optimal Growth and Development". Let's see the conversation below:
How does Dr. Reisa as a mom influencer manage her time for bonding with her little one?
Actually, there is no specific time for bonding time with your little one. For me, family time can be done every day. But in the midst of our busy schedules, we can make a schedule for bonding on the weekend, considering that our children's childhood will not be repeated. So, we as parents must provide the best. Especially to ensure good growth and development, starting from paying attention to their intake such as giving milk so that they are not easily sick and do not interfere with their growth and development. So that the bonding time that we build with our little ones is done in a healthy time.
How are Billy's moments as a father when bonding with his little one?
In the midst of busy filming every day, in the morning before leaving for work I take the time to bathe my little one. Before going to bed, I also play with him first. Because I realize that the golden age of children is precious and I don't want to miss it. Usually every weekend I dedicate time to my family. I don't want to lose my father figure even though I work for my children. As a father, we must also be involved in taking care of the child.
A simple bonding time can be when changing diapers every night. Before using MAKUKU, my son's room was cold and wet and leaky diapers made him uncomfortable. But after using MAKUKU which is anti clump, my little one sleeps more comfortably and I get around it by changing diapers before going to bed so that they don't leak.
According to Dr. Reisa, are there any challenges when bonding with your little one?
Challenges during bonding time can be felt by all parents, whether working parents or stay-at-home moms. Trust between parents and children can form a strong bond. So, my children can trust what I do, so the challenges I face outside the home can also work well.
What is the definition of bonding for Billy as a father?
Good bonding can create an easy relationship and must be supported by the surrounding people and the environment. I am a father who allows my children to explore. The challenge in bonding with your child is how prepared the parents are in providing the best. As a father, I must be able to organize good time management. Because if the father's existence is lacking in his child, it can have an unfavorable impact as well. The most important thing is to prioritize the child and always provide good and sufficient attention.

What is quality bonding like and is there a standard according to Billy's father?
Bonding time is the closeness between parents and their children. Bonding can happen since the child is in the womb, by talking to them or stroking them, it can create bonding. Well, after birth bonding can be created by providing the needs of the child. Such as when changing diapers or carrying the child can also be an activity that increases the closeness of parents with children.
What are the benefits of bonding between parents and their children according to Mother Mutia?
Bonding is the emotional attachment and dependency between mother and child. It starts at birth. Bonding can be disrupted if the mother and child are separated without indication or if medical and obstetric procedures are performed that disrupt the mother's contact with her child.
The emotional bond in this family was not created just like that, Daddy and Mommy, there are habits that will create and strengthen the bond between the little one and his father and mother. Bonding is an emotional bond that exists between the child and the person who cares for and fulfills their physical and emotional needs.
This bonding has many benefits. Because all the positive things that exist in the child are based on their closeness to their parents. Bonding that is well established can make your child happy and his immunity also increases. In terms of academics, your child will easily learn and digest lessons.
There is a term connection before correction. So, before disciplining children we must build bonding first. If the bonding is good, the child will be more obedient and taught discipline.
Quality bonding can be seen from the harmonious relationship between the child and the child. Children will also be more comfortable talking to parents, spending time with parents. And, if there is no quality bonding, it can be based on research that the child can experience behavioral disorders and emotional problems. As well as being at great risk of mental problems. (Aq/MKK)
