Causes of bad temper in toddlers

Some babies are naughty, and some babies have bad tempers. Taking care of people with bad tempers usually makes parents very upset. Some parents often fight violence with violence. When the baby loses his temper, they also lose their temper. In fact, this approach is wrong. When children have bad tempers, parents generally cannot fight violence with violence, otherwise it will have a counterproductive effect. What are the reasons for children's bad tempers?

What to do if your child has a bad temper?

Parents should communicate more with their children, understand their needs, and pay attention to their children's interactions with other children. Parents can learn more about what other children are playing, thinking, and asking for. When children make their own requests, parents can better understand their children's feelings. With guidance and patient explanations, parents can eliminate or alleviate their children's anger.

1. Discipline is not punishment

There are many reasons why children make mistakes and act naughty. The most important thing is that we need to understand clearly why children make mistakes. Children may make mistakes out of childishness, jealousy, panic, fatigue, stress, or frustration. We should spend more time playing with our children, reading books together, and building a good parent-child relationship. A deep understanding of our children's minds helps us choose appropriate discipline methods. Anticipating possible naughty behavior in children can help us prescribe the right medicine. For example, if we are afraid that our child will have a tantrum in the supermarket, before we go out, we'd better explain to him our shopping plans and what we expect from him.

2. Cold treatment is important

Don't think that children are only concerned with throwing tantrums; they are actually secretly observing your reaction. When you encounter this kind of situation, you must remain unyielding despite the might. Ignore him and make it clear to your child that you have seen through his tricks and that they won't work. In order to make the cold treatment effective, we must do a good job of ideological work among the older generation in advance and never let a "Cheng Yaojin" show up halfway. In addition, parents should remind themselves not to be infected by their children's bad temper. If the child does not listen to your advice, tell yourself that people are like this when they are angry. Give him some time to cool down.

3. Food can adjust your personality

What your children eat determines not only how much they weigh, but also how well they feel and behave. For these children, parents should pay special attention to whether they are lacking in foods rich in calcium and magnesium. Since calcium helps the conduction of nerve stimulation, a lack of calcium will prevent children's nerves from relaxing, causing mental tension and bad temper. Likewise, a lack of magnesium can interfere with nerve activity and cause irritability and nervousness. Parents can add milk, soy products, kelp, dried fish, loach, bananas, apples, nuts and dark green leafy vegetables to the diet.

4. Distract Your Attention

Many children like to act unreasonably, wanting to attract adults' attention or get certain rewards. There are many reasons for this. For example, some children do not like to brush their teeth, so every time they brush their teeth, they will deliberately make trouble or make noise; some children do not let their parents leave, and even if their parents are in a hurry to go to work, they just don’t let them wait. When dealing with young children, the approach of reasoning as taught in the books is definitely not feasible. Children care more about their own feelings, and if you force them to submit with a tough attitude, both adults and children will be very angry. A better way is to find ways to divert his attention, giving him a sense of freshness without violating the parents' principles.

5. Find someone with prestige to calm the situation

Who do children usually pick on? It must be the person who loves him the most. In the minds of children, people who take care of them, like mothers and grandmothers, are soft persimmons. There will be no serious consequences even if they lose their temper, so they do whatever they want. When you encounter this situation, you need to seek help from authority figures, such as grandfather or father. Often, after just a few words, the child will be obedient.
