Managing ' Stubborn Kid's " : Esther Child Rights International CEO Offer's Rare Tip's & Way Out

It is a globally known fact that it is not an easy task dealing or handling the needs of little kids, and by chance they are very stubborn, the case becomes more worrisome

In this rare classical Childcare piece, Esther Ogwu, a children and NGO experts stated

" Dealing with stubborn children is a challenge for parents as getting them to do even the basic things. Parents inadvertently encourage adamant behaviour in children by giving in to their tantrums.

"The best way to deal with a stubborn child is to show them that their behaviour doesn't work.
There's a difference between determination and stubbornness. So how do you tell one from another? Determination is firmness of purpose and stubbornness is an unwavering determination to do something or act in a particular way.

"Stubbornness in children can be a genetic behaviour or an acquired attitude due to environmental influences.

*Tips that might help to deal with stubborn children*

Try to listen: Communication is a two-way street. If you want your child to listen to you you have to be willing to listen to them first.
2. Connect with them don't force them: When you force a child into something they tend to rebel and do everything they should not. Take the step by connecting to your children.
3. Give them options: Stubborn children might have a mind of their own and don't always like to be told what to do. Give them options but minimally.
4. Stay calm: Shouting or telling at a defiant will turn am ordinary conversation I to a shouting match. Your child may take your response as an invitation to verbal combat. So keep calm.
Bottom line of everything is to have a great foundational basis for your child. Train your child when he is young so that he shall not depart from it.
