It's bad when parents don't forbid their children anything.

Permissiveness makes a child spoiled and disobedient.

However, you need to be careful with prohibitions. The restrictions set by mom and dad should not harm the child.

Parents should not use the following prohibitive phrases in their speech.

"Don't cry!"

Don't forbid your child to show emotions, especially if the tears are caused by a stressful situation.

The baby must have the opportunity to cry, otherwise he will become unsociable and fearful.

"Don't disturb!"

Never yell at your child if he or she distracts you from something important. The child will probably perceive a harsh phrase as a manifestation of dislike.

It’s better to calmly explain to your child that you are busy and let him know that you can talk a little later.

"You won't get anything sweet until you clean your room!"

At first glance, there is nothing wrong with such a requirement.

However, over time, the child will understand that for completing this or that task, he can demand a “reward” from his parents.

Don't give your child the opportunity to manipulate you. After all, such a situation is dangerous not only for the parents, but also for the child himself.

Earlier we listed life-saving phrases that allow you to stop a child’s tantrum.
