What to do if your child is willful

Children who are too willful are a problem that bothers many parents. How to make children behave well is a common goal sought by many parents. We must first find out the reasons for children's willfulness. We should first see if the baby is in an uncomfortable environment, such as if he has urinated or defecated. Parents should not spoil their children blindly. Parents should educate their children from an early age about what is right and what is wrong, and change their children's minds.

Check to see if the child has urinated, is hungry, or is feeling uncomfortable somewhere.

If not, let him cry as much as he wants, and after he calms down, give him toys to play with.

Don't care

If a child is crying and being willful, ignore him or her. After a while, the child will calm down on his or her own. Ignore the child and still look at him. When the child has calmed down, you can pay attention to him again. This trick works every time. Remember, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing the child.

rule

Without rules, there will be no order. The same goes for children. You must set certain rules for them at home so that they know what they should and should not do. What should be said and what should not be said. Finally, it is important to remember that parents are their children’s first teachers and role models. Therefore, parents must do a good job in this regard. If they don’t do it well, they will not be able to control their children.

Criticism is needed, praise is also needed

If a child cries and acts willfully, he should be criticized if necessary, because this is a bad behavior. Parents should tell their children that this is not good. Of course, if the child behaves well, praise him/her promptly. Who is without mistakes? When we make mistakes, we should correct them. That's good. If you know you are wrong, correct it immediately. This is a child who is brave enough to take responsibility for his mistakes. A child who is brave enough to take responsibility is a good child.

After the child has calmed down, we should not abandon him/her, but tell him/her in time what we should and should not do. What to pay attention to next time. The child will know. Children are young and they start out not knowing but gradually learn to know. So it is the parents’ job to tell and teach them.

Bad behavior cannot be learned

As the ancients said, when you see a virtuous person, you should try to emulate him; when you see an unvirtuous person, you should reflect on yourself. This tells us that when educating our children, when we see good things, we should tell them that this is good. When we see something bad, we should tell our children in time that this is bad and we should not learn it. In this way, children will have a standard and an indicator to measure in their hearts. Stop imitating bad behavior habits.

Parent-child relationship

When children are crying and being willful, parents must not disagree with them. Such responses will only aggravate the children's bad habits. A good parent-child relationship will lead to better children. Only when children always trust their parents and their parents' words have a certain authority, will children listen to their parents seriously. Otherwise, it will be counterproductive. Therefore, we should spend more time with our children in normal times. Spend more time with your children. Play with your children more and read with them more.

Say no to your children and refuse appropriately. When the child cries, tell him no. When the child is willful, he should learn to say no. You can't just coax your child when he or she is crying and being willful. When a child asks for something, don't just give it to him. Otherwise, you will see a willful and unreasonable person 18 years later, and you will regret it sooner or later.

Don't give in.

Once you give in, you will have countless troubles. Also, when it comes to educating children, don't feel sorry for your children. Let them experience some setbacks, and they will be stronger in the future. At the same time, don’t care about the opinions of the elders, as most of them spoil their children. Don't care about what others think. Remember: raising children may be the job of the elders, but educating children is the job of the parents!
