It happens that children scream in joy, expressing their emotions, and this is considered normal. But when they scream regularly, with or without reason, it worries not only parents, but also those around them. How to wean a child from screaming?
Instructions
Step 1
Find Out What May Affect Children's Screams
The child constantly screams when he wants to achieve his goal if his parents do not understand him, do not pay attention to his requests or do not want to understand. Avoid your child's interaction with children suffering from the same problem. Children love to repeat one after another. Also, never quarrel with your husband and other people in front of the child.
Step 2
Teach your child to show what he wants or speak in words
After a year, children begin to point a finger at an object of interest, pull adults by the clothes or hand and lead to what he wants. Just do not ignore his requests, so as not to come to screams. If the child can speak, it is easier to teach him to explain in words. When you give him something, name the item he wants to take several times.
Step 3
Talk to your child in a calm tone.
Often, adults raise their voice to a child when they want him to fulfill any requirements. The child gets used to this and no longer takes normal speech seriously. He thinks that the speech of his parents is not in a raised voice has nothing to do with him. Better to wait for the child to scream, and then talk to him about how to do the right thing.
Step 4
Never mind the screams
When a child screams, parents try to give him what he wants. But you can't do that. The kid must understand that by screaming he will not be able to achieve what he wants. If the tantrum starts in the store because of a toy you can't buy him, try to distract him. For example, always keep with you his favorite toy, candy or chocolate - something that can interest him.
Step 5
Distinguish the types of screams
Mom can always distinguish one cry from another, identify the causes of children's screams. If the child is constantly screaming hysterically, take the above steps. If he screams with tears, complaining to you, then have pity on him, hug and kiss. The baby may have hit or fell. If a child screams in a dream, then immediately calm him down, most likely he is worried about his teeth or he dreamed something bad.
