All children have behavior problems while growing up.
I got help through a parenting ebook.
What I have found is that some of these behaviors are more acceptable than others.
Children may be difficult to handle, disruptive, even aggressive.
As parents we need to establish boundaries and rules that must be followed.
There are several reasons why a child might become aggressive.
They may be frustrated at a task that they are trying to do.
If they were able to do something yesterday and can't today, they may become angry.
They may also become angry if a task becomes harder to accomplish.
If a child feels that our expectations of them are raised, and they don't feel that they can live up to them, this can cause them to react in a negative manner.
I must learn to understand that a child may not be able to express their frustration in words, so instead they may act them out.
I learned that I must keep certain things in mind when dealing with bad behaviors.
Discipline is meant to train a child to act in a better manner, not as a punishment.
They must learn to control themselves in a better manner, but they do need guidance.
Once I decided I was going to respond to a specific behavior, I must do so without hesitation.
Any delay in action will take away from its effectiveness.
I must also be consistent in the way you give warnings and the consequences I give out.
Also, make sure that I have a child's full attention when discussing the problem.
I needed to do this in an area where there are no distractions.
To make sure that I have a child's full attention, take hold of their hand or arm and look them in the eye when talking to them.
Make sure that they in return look me in the eye when you are speaking to them, this is the only way to know for sure that I have their attention.
This is just a brief overview of one topic.
As our children grow the problems change.
Learning how to deal with them or even avoiding them can be easy.
A parenting eBook covers this and a lot more.
