There are many tasks that you will have to learn and overcome but many of them you can get teaching for, child rearing is not one of them and when you are faced with child behavior problems it is hard to know who to turn to. As each child is different, you may find that what has worked for your friend or family members will not work for you. I am going to tell you about a few methods that have been used by professionals and parents alike and has meant that you too can successfully benefit from what has been learned.
Some of the problems that children may have is that they are suffering from a medical condition which causes some aspects of their behaviour. Even though certain problems can make behaviour worse you will find that you can still lesson the problems by taking the advice that I am about to give you and this could actually give you the opportunity to avoid giving medication to your young one which is always a bonus.
When a child plays up, if you are to shout at them they will still be receiving attention even though it is not the attention you would deem as good. They are too young to determine what is good and bad when they receive attention from an adult which is why the behaviour continues.
Sometimes, whether through television, older siblings or others outside a child picks up bad language. This can be embarrassing and many people find that by telling young children off they only seem to make the problem worse. It has been shown that the best way is to ignore it as if it is not even a word and only reply to the child when they speak politely. When they are having a tantrum that is so bad they could end up causing injury to themselves or someone else the best thing to do is to hold them to restrain them from doing so, yet not communicate with them. When they are calmer you can let them get down and play again.
You will find that putting your child in their room, a corner or other area will also work effectively for many children, especially if they see that their behaviour is not gaining them attention. Do not shout, just pick them up or lead them to the place you wish them to stay, and you should give them time to reflect for a minute for each given year since they have been born. For example if your child is six then you need to leave them for 6 minutes.
If they get up from where they have been put return them to the spot and continue to do so, it may seem like a lengthy task but in the end it will pay off.
You can reward good behaviour and the way you should do this is when they abide by rules set in place or from their own initiative they decide to play well with others. They will be pleased that you have taken note of the fact they are behaving well and be more likely to repeat the behaviour.
Another method that is used is sticker charts. They are effective and mean that they do not get rewarded with a gift when they are good, they get a sticker which once collected to a level that is set by you, you will be able to reward them with maybe a family day out, staying up a little later to watch a film or something else they enjoy doing. You do not have to reward them with sweets, children will be just as happy to have your attention and some time with you at the park.
The lessons that your child will learn from your teachings will not only benefit you and your family as you become less stressed both in the home and out of it. You can also be sure that their concentration will be better at school meaning that they will be able to take more in. Routine is also important and also not bending rules all the time as this will cause confusion for them. The lessons you teach them will be something that they will use when they too become parents, although this may seem a long way off you can be sure that it will be useful in years to come.
