In life, parents can help their children correct their mistakes in time, but, in the face of some bad habits of children, do you care and help your child to correct it with care? Good dog children's products reproduce the following suggestions for reference

1, interrupting your speech

Children may sometimes be very excited to tell you something, but if he is always allowed to interrupt you when you speak, it may make the child feel that he has the privilege to get the attention of others, and can not stand others ignoring them so that later may be self-centered.

Solution: If your child comes up to you and pesters you, point to a stool and ask him to sit there and be quiet until you finish talking; if you have to make a phone call or meet a friend, tell your child to be quiet and not to disturb you, and then arrange another activity for him. Your goal is to let him know that if he interrupts your speech, it will be difficult for him to achieve his goal.

2. Pretend not to hear you

Constantly repeating or reminding your request or command to your child will make him develop the habit of waiting for your reminder instead of paying attention to what you say, and gradually he will also develop to ignore what you say. If this habit continues, he may become uncaring and disrespectful.

Solution: Try not to talk to your child from a distance, but walk up to him and tell him what you want. When you speak, ask the child to look at you and be responsive.

3, frivolous attitude

Your child is not talking to you while making faces or talking to you with a very frivolous attitude, many children, especially small children will have these behaviors, their purpose is to test the reaction of parents. Many parents may ignore these behaviors, thinking that their child is still young and that this is just a transitional stage, but if you don't let your child correct them as soon as possible, he may have a hard time getting along well with others.

Solution: Be sure to make your child aware that his or her behavior is inappropriate. For example, if your child rolls his eyes while you are talking, you can tell him that this behavior shows that he doesn't like what you are saying and that you can stop talking to him and walk away, and then talk to him when his attitude gets better before you talk to him.

4. Exaggerate the facts

You may think that your child's bragging in front of other children is not a big deal, but this phenomenon should be stopped at its source as early as possible. Because if your child finds that telling big lies will make him feel more comfortable, he will soon develop the habit of telling big lies often and shirking his responsibilities, etc.

Solution: When your child lies, you should quietly talk to your child about the disadvantages of lying and let him understand that if he tells too many big lies, others may no longer believe what he says. Also understand clearly the purpose of the child's lie, to make him understand that even if he lies his purpose is not always achieved. To correct this phenomenon, storytelling is a good educational method, especially for younger children.

Ways to help your child develop good habits

Experience the "sweet" and "bitter" to seize the typical examples of children, to help children experience "good habits make themselves taste sweet, bad habits make themselves eat bitter", such as making a face to others to cause The best way to develop good behavior is "from passive to active to automatic".

Make a simple calendar with a date of the month and have your child write down the habits he/she wants to develop in that month. Then at the end of the month, talk to your child about the experience and feelings of the month.

Parent-child contract Dads and moms can make a few requests to their children, and children can make a few requests to their moms and dads, and if they do, what kind of reward they will get, and if they don't, what kind of punishment they will get. These are written down, confirmed, and signed by both parties, and the child and parent monitor each other as required.
