Culturologist Anna Osadchaya explained the reasons why children quarrel
Quarrels among children are not uncommon.
Anna Osadchaya, a cultural scientist with knowledge of psychology, told us about the reasons why children quarrel.
This behavior is very exhausting for parents and makes them quite nervous. Let's figure out the reasons why children quarrel.
First, young children usually say what they think. This behavior can lead to conflicts with peers. Words spoken to another child can offend him.
And the offended child will want to respond to unflattering words addressed to him in the same coin. Well, and then the conflict is not far off. The children will continue to call each other names until a third party, most often an adult, intervenes.
But there are also positive aspects: children quickly forget grievances and, perhaps, will not remember them in a couple of days.
This is a normal process of developing a child's personality, which should be treated calmly and with understanding. And vice versa, if a child behaves too obediently and does not conflict at all, this should be a warning sign.
Secondly, children may be trying to get attention this way. Bad behavior is an ideal way to do this because it is quick and effective. What to do in this case?
You need to try to pay more attention to children and praise them for their successes and good deeds. The main thing is to keep the golden mean, because excessive praise can also harm the child in the future.
Thirdly, the most important stage of personality development occurs in childhood. For example, there is such a thing as the three-year crisis. During this period, negativism, disobedience, willfulness, and so on may appear.
Through these symptoms, the child develops the process of identifying himself as a person. During this period, it is important for the parent to be wise and able to direct the child's aggression into a peaceful direction.
These can be games, sports. The main thing is that these processes are exciting. Plus, this will help develop the child's creative abilities.
In conclusion, I would like to wish all parents patience and wisdom.
