Be Nicer to Your Kids
| Posted on December 17, 2014 at 10:26 AM |
 Parenthood is one of the most rewarding experiences a person
can have. The first time you look at a new life that you created, your entire
world changes. Parents are only human and they have bad days. The problem
is that when your bad day bleeds over to verbal cruelty to your kids, you can
negatively affect their health and wellness. Taking time to be nicer to your
children can help with many developmental and behavioral problems. Here are
some things you should avoid when talking to your kids. Absolutes When you address behavioral issues with your kids, avoid
words such as “never,” “always,” or “ever.” Asking your child why they always
behave a certain way or why they never do what you ask will only put these
absolutes in their head. This can subconsciously encourage the very behavior you are
trying to bring to light. Keep things in the moment. Discuss what your child
has done now, not what they always do. Creating Problems When your child repeatedly does something wrong, you can be
tempted to throw your hands up in the air and say, “What is your problem?” or
“What is wrong with you?” This is something you should avoid. Just because your
child is doing the same thing over and over, does not necessarily mean they
have a problem. It could just mean they are kids. In many situations, children act out in situations where
they feel comfortable and safe. Asking what their problem is could potentially
create problems where before there were none. Calling Names This is potentially the worst thing you can do when your
child acts out. Yes, you are enraged and frustrated that your child just will
not behave. Insults may spring unbidden to your tongue. It is important to bite
them back. From the moment they can communicate we teach our kids that
name calling is bad. Why would we do it to our kids? When you call your child a jerk, a brat or worse, they may
begin to see themselves that way. This will lead to further behavioral problems
and can create issues with self-esteem and self-image. What to Do As difficult as it sounds, patience is key. When your child
pushes you over the edge, take a moment to breathe. Consider the fact that you
are not dealing with another grown-up. Try to see the situation from the child’s
point of view, and address the behavior accordingly. If you find that you simply cannot effectively address the
issues, a qualified child psychologist in Edmonton may be able to help. Many
therapists offer comprehensive Autism, ADHD
and behavioral therapy services, and can educate you on how to better
handle such problems in your child. If you think you and your child could benefit from therapy,
please give us a call today. We are eager to help. |
