A child's behaviour may change because of simple reasoning such as hunger or tiredness and can be complex such as communication issues related to learning, emotional reasons like not being able to cope with their feelings and their environment play a huge role in their behaviour.
A child's behaviour may be considered a problem when it doesn't match the expectations of their parents or is disruptive. What is “normal” is usually determined by social constructs that have been developed over centuries. Knowing what to expect from your child at each age will help you decide whether his or her behaviour is acceptable or normal.
Few Tips to follow:-
-
Praise your Kids:- Each time your child behaves well, make sure you let them know and show them your appreciation for good behaviour.
-
Use Incentive Tactics:- In order to make your child do chores, make a chart and put it up on a board or fridge. Each time they complete a task give them a sticker, at the end of the day if they complete all their chores, reward them with something they love.
-
Use Consistent Discipline Techniques:– When your child misbehaves, they need to understand the specific behaviours you do not want them to continue. Let them know what they have done is wrong while giving them a warning. Your explanations should be clear and simple so that they understand exactly what was wrong with their behaviour.
-
Communicate with your Child:- To help your child self-regulate, explain that feelings are tied to behaviour. Try talking with them to find out if they are upset about something you are unaware of so that you can address any potential problems. Spend at least half an hour of your day talking to your child about feelings & emotions so that they get comfortable with sharing.
