What should I do if my child likes to hit others?

Children are at the peak stage of development. During this period, they are prone to show more abnormal symptoms, which have a greater impact on their lives. For example, some children have a bad temper and get angry easily, and even show adult-like behaviors. This is very wrong and needs to be dealt with in time. Let’s see what to do if a child likes to hit people? I hope everyone can understand it.

When dealing with children's behavior of hitting others at will, adults should first observe and analyze why the child has such a reaction. Only after knowing the reason can they guide the child in the correct direction. If it is the first reason mentioned above, adults should help children learn to express themselves with language. For example, adults can say the words for the child and then ask him to repeat them (depending on his language expression ability). This allows the child to know that the way to solve the problem is to express it with language, thereby replacing his violent behavior.

We should teach our children how to interact with others properly. For example: If you like your aunt, don’t pull her hair, but hug her; if you want to talk to your grandma, go to her and sing a song; if you want to play with other children, you can ask questions. According to the child's age and language expression ability, demonstrate specific language and actions to the child, and ask the child to practice several times. Next time when you encounter the same situation, just remind your child more often and the bad way of interaction will gradually change.

All a child needs is the love of his parents, and the most direct way is to give him enough love. But this is also the most difficult thing for parents to grasp. Parents worry that over-care for their children will turn into spoiling. In fact, as long as they stick to the principles, there will be no conflict between loving children and educating them.

When children hit others, adults should not only understand the reasons, but also let the children know that hitting and hurting others is wrong. Especially when children are rude to their elders, adults should tell the children "no" with a stern look and a firm tone, and then patiently tell the children what they can do. Parents should remember one thing: never forgive their children's mistakes just because they are young. Parents should also not forget to give their children enough opportunities to practice and reminders. Only in this way can they cultivate a reasonable and polite child.
