Kids don’t need to be tamed like pets; they are to be raised to be respectable and well behaved individuals. It is the duty of every parent to make sure that their child understands his social responsibilities and is aware of how to conduct himself in the company of others. The child should have this unspoken consciousness of where their limits are set. It is not by force and punishment that such manners are to be taught. Parents should learn to employ better tactics in order that their children abide by their rules and behave properly without continuous nagging and lecturing.
Given below are some important tips to help you with improving your child’s behaviour:
1.Follow what you want them to do:
If the children see you screaming at your elderly parents, they too will not hesitate to shout at you. If they grow up in a loving and caring environment where, everyone talks politely and respects each-other, children will also follow the suit. So in order to have your child be a well-behaved being, it is of utmost importance that you yourself are impeccably good at the way you behave.
2. Spend quality time with them:
It has been seen that children who are devoid of quality time with their parents, grow up to be more irritable and difficult to handle. It is because of a sense of aloofness that grows within them, and the frustration of not being able to share their fears and worries with someone that they tend to become either too silent and social awkward or have sudden outbursts when agitated.
