5 Popular Phrases Parents Say to Their Kids: Stop Using These Lines
06.11.2024 10:05
Certain phrases are popular among parents.
It is believed that these lines seriously help in raising children.
But there is a nuance: unfortunately, some of the popular parenting phrases are very dangerous for boys and girls.
A child who hears such words from his mother and father can suffer serious psychological trauma.
Don't want to harm your own child? Then exclude the following expressions from your vocabulary:
"The bogeyman will come"
There is no need to scare your child with some mythical creatures.
Perhaps a frightened child will behave better. But this result will be achieved at an unacceptable cost.
Stop scaring your child with "bogeymen", "Baba Yaga", etc. You don't want your child to become fearful and indecisive, do you?!
And never say the following to your son or daughter: "I'll give you to that woman over there." After all, this phrase deals the child a double psychological blow: the parents frighten the child with someone "scary," and at the same time allow for the possibility of "abandoning" the child.
"Stop crying immediately!"
Give your children the opportunity to express their emotions. Especially in cases where tears are caused by fear, pain or resentment, and not by spoiledness and capriciousness.
If you do not follow this rule, your baby will become too closed and withdrawn.
"We didn't sleep at night for you and spent so much money!"
Don't make your child feel guilty for something that he definitely isn't guilty of.
"And here is Vasya..."
Give up the habit of comparing your child with other boys and girls.
This approach is a direct path to developing an inferiority complex in the child.
"We will stop loving you if..."
Threats to leave a child without parental love are very dangerous.
Be aware that your baby may take such statements seriously.
It is possible that the child will come to the conclusion that he is “useless”.
Children should not doubt the unconditional love of their mother and father.
