A child’s chance for future success relies not just on harnessing the IQ. It is also very much dependent on making sure his or her EQ is equally developed. EQ is the ability to understand, use, and manage one’s own emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. It is how a child is able to keep calm when a favorite toy is lost or when he or she can’t figure out the answer to what 8+5 is. It is how a child is able to get along with other kids while in play or in school. It is how he or she is able to manage frustration without throwing a tantrum. Completing your child’s EQ to have these attitudes will help set them up for success in the future.
With recent studies that point to the importance of EQ as part of a child’s holistic growth, moms who have been focusing on IQ are now nurturing the EQ abilities of their kids. Apart from concentrating on their kids’ mental strength in the areas of logic, memory and language, moms have also started to hone their kids’ confidence, behavioral regulation and independence. That’s because moms now know that if they don’t enhance their kids’ EQ, a child is basically #MissingHalf of what is necessary to attain success in the future.
When was the last time you told your Mom you love her? That you appreciate her for all the times she stayed up late when you were sick or when you had to review for all your tests? How she covered your notebooks, neatly labeling your name or how she simply combed your hair? This Mother’s Day, Lactum asks each of us to tell our mom how much she means to us; how we appreciate all the sacrifices she tries to hide from us; and, how seeing her happy is what also makes us happy.
This is the essence of Lactum’s Mother’s Day video #KungAlamMoLangMa. While mums love and care for their children completely and unconditionally, many still feel that they are missing out because they don’t spend as much time as they want with their kids. More than that, many mums feel that the struggles they go through each day just to make sure the kids are fed well, have clean clothes to wear or do their homework are hardly noticed. But as #KungAlamMoLangMa would show and prove: their children actually are aware of their mom’s feelings and are thankful for the sacrifices she makes.
Mums do what they do because of love. When children grow up happy and healthy and do well at home and in school, mothers feel fulfilled and validated that she has done right. A perfect example for this is when mums ensure that their kids grow up with all-around development by providing positive stimulation and proper nutrition that includes Vitaminized Lactum 3+ which has 5x more DHA and 50% Less Sucrose {Sugar} versus its previous formulation. DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid which supports brain development during early childhood. Vitaminized Lactum 3+ also has nutrients that help promote bone growth and help strengthen the body’s immune system.
For a long period, moms believed that IQ and physical well-being are the only major aspects of child development. They believed that fostering the body and nurturing logic, memory and language hold the key to attaining the ideal, balanced and complete body and mind progression of a child.
Later studies would show, however, that IQ only makes up 50% of a child’s mental health development. The #MissingHalf that shapes and forms sound mental health? EQ.
The good news is moms of children 3 years old and up can become Moms for Great Minds ~ by choosing the right nutrition to nurture the EQ and not just the IQ of their kids. And this is through the breakthrough ingredient, MFGM.
M-F-G-M, stands for Milk Fat Globule Membrane, a revolutionary discovery that has been scientifically proven to enhance a child’s EQ by providing healthy doses of Sphingomyelin and gangliosides to aid in brain formation; and, Sterols to help regulate hormones that help in cognitive functions such as paying attention in class; remembering mom’s advice never to talk to strangers; or making decisions as to whether to study or play first.
Making MFGM an important part of a child’s nutrition helps enhance EQ- which encompasses the ability to understand, use, and manage emotions in positive ways to relieve stress; communicate effectively; empathize with others; overcome challenges; and defuse conflict. Making sure that a child grows up with good EQ will help them grow beyond being book-smart and help them become more confident, optimistic, calm, sociable, able to focus, alert, attentive, and good tempered.
