In an effort to make a child's life safe, parents sometimes set too many restrictions.

We'll tell you what 5 things you shouldn't forbid your child and why.

Express emotions

Such prohibitions can lead to neuroses and mental problems.

Never yell at a crying child, it will only make the situation worse.

Try to calmly explain why you need to be quieter at this moment.

Don't finish eating

Forcing a child to finish every meal can cause both psychological and physical harm.

It can lead to food aversion and eating disorders.

Show independence

A child needs help, not doing for him. If you constantly suppress initiative, the child is unlikely to grow up independent.

Be greedy

Children are often reluctant to share their toys, and this is normal.

A small child simply does not understand why he should give to other children what he wants to play with himself.

Try to explain to your child that if he shares his toys, other children will share with him too.

Ask questions

Of course, the constant "why" is tiring for a child, but this is how he learns about the world. Be patient.
