Diffusing A Tantrum

Whether it be the terrible two’s, or as old as a teenager, Some children are just naturally angry. And despite your best efforts to control them, sometimes stopping an outburst of anger is inevitable. So just as well generally they have a short attention span, which of course includes a tantrum.

The biggest mistake, not to mention the most common as well, is that parents will just respond to anger with more anger. This accomplishes nothing more than adding fuel to a fire. Replying to a tantrum with a harsh tone, screaming, and losing control yourself is basically being no better than the child you are trying to control. This can also cause them to think that being angry is ok and part of normal behavior.

It quite often takes a strong willed and focused parent to effectively diffuse a tantrum. There a are number of ways this can be achieved. First of all, and most importantly, you must without fail keep yourself calm and collected. Respond and talk to your child in a mild yet firm tone. Look into their eyes and keep a perfectly straight face while doing this.

Obviously, they want to get something their way, so let them know that this isn’t going to happen. Follow through with your plan, and very importantly, make sure that you and if applicable, your spouse deal with them in exactly the same manner every time this happens. As soon as you lose consistency with your method of discipline, your child will learn that they can possibly weasel their way out of the situation.

If they are going overboard in their ranting and raving, sometimes giving them no attention what so ever can do the trick. If you can tell that all they want is attention, show them by means of this method that this is not how they can achieve it

Setting A Good Example For Your Child

I am never ceased to be amazed at how many parents these days simply ignore what is the single biggest factor in a child’s upbringing- Example. If you find yourself, for example, frequently shouting or even using bad language in front of your child, and struggle to keep them well behaved, then this problem is somewhat easily solved.

Now some parents will naturally struggle with this more than others, but setting a good example for their children to follow is often the most important thing they can do in regards to their mental development. As you would know, children frequently have a short attention span. And listening to a verbal instruction is also frequently forgotten or disregarded.

But, if your child frequently sees you doing what you want them to do, then this sinks into their minds far more effectively. If you are always polite and speak calmly with others, including them, then they begin to learn that this is normal and expected behavior. Same applies with sharing, accomplishing tasks in a timely manner, taking pride in your work, and your general composure. One way you can get your child actively involved is to get them to participate in a task you are already involved in. This shows them that what is good for you is also good for them.

Remember, a child spends the first couple of years of their life not knowing how to speak or understand speech. What they learn in this time is almost always what they observe. Whether you like it or not, you child will most likely grow up to be very similar to you. The way you act and the way you think. So the next time your child misbehaves, will you ask yourself “Am I doing or not doing this myself?”

Incentives For Getting Your Child To Listen And Cooperate

Click Here! To Go Straight To "The Happy Child Guide"

Unfortunately, at times children can be stubborn and quite simply refuse to cooperate with you. And of course, their reasons for this are varied, even something as simple as ego could be the reason, I can remember at the age of 3, not wanting to do something just because of an ego. So the task is getting to the bottom of their mind, so to speak, and understanding why they do or don’t want to do something.

Now to turn around your child’s thinking, offering an incentive, or a reason to do so is an effective way of doing this. But please note, avoiding the reward / punishment system is always a good way to start, as it doesn’t necessarily teach the child the reasons why you want them to behave in a certain way. Even if it does work, chances are they are doing so for the wrong reasons, which will most likely be short lived.

So  first thing to try, before an argument or confrontation erupts, try talking to your child in a calm and loving way, explaining to them that by obeying your commands, even when they don’t want to, makes you pleased and happy with them, and explain in as much detail as you can the reasons why obeying is for their own good. Do this regularly, and above all, do your utmost to do so in a kind and calm manner, and always commend them for the good things they already do, while keeping things they need to work on to an absolute minimum.

Of course, even if this doesn’t work, at least at first, rewarding your child with a treat, as soon as possible for when they do obey is still a good method, but never ever resort to giving them money or similar benefits.

Effective Child Rearing

Click Here! To go straight to the "Happy Child Guide"

If you are the parent of a disobedient, arrogant, or hard to deal with child of any kind, then look no further, you have arrived at the right place! Even if you are simply interested in the best for your child’s welfare, and professional parenting strategies and ideas, this information is for you!

In today's society, especially in developed countries, it seems that many new parents quite simply are ill equipped to properly raise and discipline their children. Of course, any kind and loving parent wants the best for their child in every way, and the fact that you have arrived at this page suggests exactly that.

Now the biggest problem that most parents have with raising their children is that they don't fully understand their psychology, or basically, the way they think, and what goes on in their minds when they receive commands, discipline, etc. Of course, one of the most famous of these is reverse psychology, telling your child one thing whilst wanting them to do another. That may be fine if it works initially, but it not only trains their mind the wrong way, they also adapt and begin to reason, and one thing that is for certain is that the majority of parents underestimate just how clever and even manipulative their child can be. Children as young as 3 and 4 have found to be capable of being manipulative and cunning, without their parents even realizing it!

Communication is another very important factor in your child's mental and emotional development. It is pointless to loose your temper, scream and yell at your child. All this does is make him or her think that this is normal and acceptable behavior. You need to be able to "get inside your child's mind", so to speak, and to do this, the two of you need to be on the same wave length. Find out what they are feeling, and talk to them in a calm, controlled and most importantly, loving way. They will pick up on this, and may be enough to melt the barrier between you. This is far more effective than the punishment / reward system, which only manifests shallow results.

You know the saying "monkey see, monkey do?” A child's mind is like a big sponge. They absorb almost everything including unwanted behavior and antics. And their parents are their biggest example in their early stage of life. If they see you do anything, they will automatically assume it is normal and ok, whether it be expressing kind words to one another, or throwing food at one another at the dinner table. So, if you find yourself yelling impatiently towards them or other family members, guess what they're learning? Same deal with domestic violence, other bad habits, even drug use. The "Do what I say, and not as I do" phrase is obviously a recipe for disaster. And yet so many parents literally do this, often without even thinking.

So if you're trying to "break" a particularly tough child, have tried countless methods to control them but without success, then no parent should be too proud or even ashamed to seek professional advice. Your child deserves the best you can give them, including valuable life training and discipline. So what I would like to share with you now is a cheap, but please note, very effective professionally written guide dedicated to raising your child. It deals with every aspect of behavioral problems, and is packed with advice, tips and strategies. In fact, it is at the moment one of the most popular and best selling child advise guides on the internet. Even if you are right now hesitant to spend a small amount on this amazing eBook, simply by clicking on the link, you can watch a free video presentation dealing with communication.

Please note there is also a full money back guarantee, so you have nothing to lose.

There is plenty of child rearing advise plastered all over the internet, but unfortunately most of it is simply written by your average Joe Blow, just like me, who has only a bit of advice to give but no real solid and "fool proof" information. Remember, you're stuck with them for about two decades, so wouldn't it be nice to spend every moment of that without resentment but instead with happy and quality times.

Of course, there is always the last resort to seek personal counseling and other things of the sort, along with the huge expenses, but this guide has already proven such remarkable results. Your child will one day thank you for it!
