Parenting Child Care
Teach your child good behavior by setting a good example and behaving properly and appropriately yourself. Anger can be a paralyzing and debilitating condition. They may beg a child to comply. Express that biting is wrong and unacceptable and that neither mommy or daddy like it.

Other children or adolescents, who otherwise seem responsible, fall into a pattern of repetitive lying.

Let there be magic in your smile and firmness in your handshake.

Control your Anger, Don't let it Control You



Anger can be a paralyzing and debilitating condition. But it can be a terrifying and degrading experience for your child if you're taking your anger out on them. Physical and verbal abuse of a child can have lasting and lethal implications, so it's crucial that as a parent, you do whatever necessary to get your anger in check.


As a parent, you have a wonderful opportunity to undo the wrongs that were done to you as a child if you had an angry and abusive parent or parents. It can be very curative and demonstrate you where your troubles lie are and inspire you to fix them. Perhaps your past is filled with unresolved hurt and anger. If so, take the necessary steps to heal yourself. If you don't, you could unwillingly and unthinkingly harm your child. Studies have shown that children whose mothers often express anger are more likely to be difficult to discipline. Identify problems from your past and honestly look at current situations that are angering you. Maybe you aren't fulfilled at work; perhaps your spouse and you are having relationship troubles, maybe you have other personal issues or unfulfilled goals that are bothering you. If all your child ever sees is your angry face and hears an angry voice, that's what they'll most likely grow into as well.


It's important to 'pick your battles' when parenting. Accidents and nuisances don't warrant the energy and agony it takes to get angry. But misbehaviors such as a child hurting themselves, others or property demand a firm, quick and appropriate response from you. You will probably have to continually remind yourself that the small stuff isn't worth getting worked up over. And remind yourself also that you're the one in control of your anger; don't let your anger control you. Put yourself in time out, take a deep breath, walk away, do whatever you have to in order to get a grip on yourself before addressing the situation if you feel your anger coming on strong.

Research has also shown that physical punishment poses a risk to the safety and development of children.




Let your child know what they did right and reward them for it before you let them know what they did wrong and punish for misbehaving or a misdeed. First, try limiting the situations that trigger it. Some adolescents discover that lying may be considered acceptable in certain situations such as not telling a boyfriend or girlfriend the real reasons for breaking up because they don't want to hurt their feelings. Try to establish a habit of catching your child being good ("time in"), which means rewarding your little one with attention and praise for positive behavior. Toddlers generally understand more than they can express.
