5 Parental Phrases That Irritate Children: Don't Say Them - They're Dangerous and Pointless

04.04.2024 00:30

Many mothers and fathers say phrases that greatly irritate their children.

There is nothing good about this.

Such remarks do not bring any benefit. Instead, the child becomes angry, disappointed and feels unfair.

Do you want to maintain a normal relationship with your child? Avoid using the following phrases when communicating with your child:

"I warned you!"

Contrary to popular belief, this phrase does not at all convince a child of the need to obey his parents.

In fact, the baby may perceive this remark as mockery or self-assertion towards him.

Of course, it happens that a child ignores mom and dad's warnings, despite all the efforts of the latter. And then you have to say: "See, we were right!"

And yet, parents should strive to ensure that the child understands the consequences of this or that action in time. Try to be more convincing.

"Faster!"

The child should not be rushed. Under no circumstances should you force him to eat faster, clean his room or do his homework as early as possible.

The baby may get scared or angry, and also make a lot of mistakes.

"Don't disgrace me!"

Some children are very upset by this parental phrase: their self-esteem drops and they feel guilty.

Other children get irritated when they hear this remark from their mom and dad. This is also not good: the relationship between parents and children worsens.

"And here is your classmate..."

Try not to compare your child with his classmates and friends.

Such a comparison is unlikely to make the child follow the example of the "correct" child. But complexes will certainly appear.

"I don't care what others have. Answer for yourself!"

Children are very upset when their parents notice the successes of other children and at the same time ignore their failures.

If you have already made someone else’s child an “example”, then pay attention to the mistakes of this “ideal child”.
