Dealing with Disrespectful Children (Part 1)

Dealing with children’s behavior is not always easy. One of the examples is dealing with disrespectful children who sometimes act like brats. You need to know several things regarding such problem, including the cause and solution.

The first thing you need to always remember is that it needs time. It’s impossible to change everything overnight, right? Knowing the cause is the number one important thing you need to do. This initial part is (believe it or not), the most difficult thing.

Children turn to be disrespectful for some reasons. It can be about their age/stage of development, the situation, the way you treat them, etc. Dealing with very young children requires extra patience, since they aren’t as mature and quite difficult for them to know everything easily.

As long as you treat them well with respect, children will not be disrespectful. So when it happens, it’s you task to analyze. What you have to do is to examine your behavior. Don’t yell, don’t snap, don’t do everything you never want your children to do, either to other people or to you.

Open communication is another advice to remember. Do as best as you can. However, sometimes gender difference becomes the main issue while trying this solution. So, it is better to use this suggestion: mother for daughter, while father is for son.

On discussing such thing, there are certain times when you will probably lose your temper. In such situation, there are two possible solutions you can try: going into next room and take few minutes to calm down (while leaving your child alone in a room) or take a deep breath and be still in a room if your child is still too young to be left alone.

Some people find this part as the most challenging as well as most interesting at the same time. Interesting because they can finally calm down after remembering when the child was born, and remembering the love they have for their beloved child. Do you face and feel the same thing currently?
