I too used to do this. He needs love and I am trying not to scold him for anything. But he is becoming difficult day by day.
be firm and consistent in your discipline. the issue aggravates when the child feels confused with the inconsistency.
Hi @Sweety2016 In addition to all the suggestions given above, I would add one more. If your child tries to hit you, hug her and tell her that we should not hit but we have to hug or kiss. Whenever she hits always remind her what she should to do instead of hitting. This worked for my daughter.
This is bad. You are letting him boss around. You should have told him he could move to the floor. And ask him if he would like to clean the younger ones poo instead of you. You have to be strong. Don't give in to his tantrums . This will become a big problem later on. Discipling children in a joint family is a little difficult. You can talk about this to your husband and get your fil to help with this.
feels more like giving in the moment the child cries. somethings should be a firm no irrespective of your child crying. if you give in the moment he cries, he learns the first step of manipulation. and @MonikaSG i agree with @yellowmango here by moving away you are not allowing him to learn tolerance. tolerance towards others eating habits starts at home. my granny would say just even if the needle is made of gold, it draws blood when it pokes.
My fil is no more. I know this is wrong and I am creating another problem to solve the first. I am doing this to avoid his shout and anger. Anything that I don't follow he gets angry. He come at 1:00 from school and till 4:00 I bear with him to make him eat bath brush and sleep. Earlier he used to sleep at 2:30 after finishing all the tasks.
it is tough and more so when you are in a joint family. be firm and every body in the family has to follow. noone takes it easy or makes it easy or fun for your kiddo behind your back which happens in a jt family. be clear and draw boundaries about where it matters. discuss your concerns with your husband and rope in his cooperation. he needs your attention and is getting into temper tantrums. let him finish it. do not indulge until he calms. let him hnderstand you mean business.. it will fall into place.. dont worry.
Op, I am not asking you to give time out by isolating her. It won't work as she is small. Read my post. Keep her in the same room , in your presence . That s what I have seen in daycare. She thinks it's funny to beat you. Because of your reaction. So try not to give any reaction and divert her attention. There is no harm in saying No
You need to be her boss.what r her favorites. If she likes tv,or iPad or certain foods. Use as reinforcements . If she beats, take these away from her. Be firm Reinforce the good behavior
