Harmonious relations between people are possible when the parties feel that they are equal. This applies to both adults and children. At every age, your child needs to be made clear that he is on the same side as you.
Instructions
Step 1
In any conflict situation, observe the principle of mutual respect. Even if you are absolutely right, do not overwhelm the child with your statements or actions. Do not use the phrases “I know better”, “When you grow up, then you will make decisions,” etc. Learn to listen to all the arguments of your child and explain why your chosen solution to this problem is more convenient or beneficial. Learn to step back in time if the child's arguments are more convincing.
Step 2
Respect and respect children's privacy. Their personal belongings - books, crafts, movie discs, etc. - are their world. The room is their territory, and the only thing that you have the right to demand from the child is to maintain proper order in it. Be sure to make a compelling case for keeping things in place. First of all, it should be convenient for the child, and only then for you.
Step 3
Remember that adults and children react differently to the same circumstances. And some words may not be perceived the way you do. Therefore, be restrained in your statements, sometimes an inadvertently spoken rude word seriously injures the fragile child's psyche.
Step 4
Respect the child's choice: this or that circle or section, this or that literature. Children are sometimes completely different from their parents and are not required to share their hobbies. And do not try, against his will, to "make" of the child a person of the profession that you yourself dreamed of, but did not realize your dreams. As a rule, imposed professions or hobbies only lead to the fact that a person is wasting his time and energy.
Step 5
Talk to him about your love more often and spend as much time together as possible. Come up with family traditions, for example - get together on a weekend with the whole family and discuss the results of the past week and plans for the coming days. Moreover, give the right to vote even to the smallest participants of such a "meeting". The child should feel like a full member of the family and bear responsibility for it, which is feasible for his age.
