5 Reasons to Stop Scolding Children: Science's Opinion

Frayed nerves, irritability and stress force adults to speak to children in raised tones.
But when splashing out emotions, you need to remember that the educational component in such a situation reaches a dead end.
Experts have named 5 main reasons to stop scolding children.
First of all, children don't understand screaming.
Only by the age of 4-5 do children begin to understand their train of thought, actions and deeds. Therefore, in earlier years, even shouting to them will not work.
Secondly, it can deceive
Knowing that the parents will quarrel, the child will never admit to what he did.
But if we look at the situation positively, the child will honestly tell everything himself. That is, the question is about the absence or presence of trust.
Third, shouting and academic performance
Schoolchildren should not be scolded at all. Scientists have proven that frequent scandals only reduce academic performance.
That is, having scolded your child for low grades and punished him by depriving him of a walk or other pleasures, be prepared that another bad grade will soon appear.
Therefore, schoolchildren need to be helped to improve, not scolded.
Fourthly, health problems
Just like adults, children can eat to cope with stress, which in scientific circles is called "emotional overeating." This leads to weight problems, complexes, and a whole chain of troubles.
Fifth, experience
Children and adults, due to lack of experience and knowledge, have different views on the same situation. An adult can foresee, warn, avoid.
The child has yet to master these skills.
