Even the most calm and obedient children sometimes begin to act up. By the way, how often the child is naughty is influenced by the attitude of the parents towards this. Yes, children's whims are stress not only for the child, but also for the parents. However, when your child begins to behave like this, try a few tips.
Necessary
Patience, firmness and love
Instructions
Step 1
When your child begins to be capricious, take him in your arms, kiss him, but do not reward with anything. If this does not help, leave the child alone, go about your business. After all, an audience is needed to continue the performance.
Step 2
Make it clear that you do not take his tantrum seriously: be calm, do not succumb to provocation. If this happened in a crowded place, take the baby in your arms, for example, to the street, let him cry as much as you like. And by no means react to the whining.
Step 3
There should not be many bans, and they must necessarily be on the case. But if you have already banned something or threatened something, be sure to do it. From time to time, the child will test you for strength, and if you give in at least once, then the child will literally twist the ropes out of you. Agree about the same with the rest of the adults in the family: it is not worse if the mother forbids something, and the grandparents indulge their whims. Then the child has full scope for manipulation. Also, because of this, parental authority falls.
Step 4
All sorts of rituals and the established daily routine are very helpful in establishing an even, calm relationship. So, it is good to start awakening with kisses or a game, and go to bed with a fairy tale or a lullaby so that the child knows that there is always good and interesting ahead of him. Your departure and arrival can also be accompanied by a ritual. Always explain exactly when you will return (“when you sleep, play, eat”), kiss before leaving, sometimes bring something tasty or interesting with you.
Step 5
Find out if there is an objective reason for whims: sometimes the child is sick or wants to sleep. In such cases, it is required to eliminate the cause, and not fight the whim itself.
