3 Phrases That Traumatize a Child's Psyche: They Should Not Be Said

23.06.2023 00:01

Some parents see nothing wrong with scaring their own child.

After all, in many cases this method works: it is enough to tell the child a phrase that is frightening for him - and the problem of bad behavior is solved.

However, it is still worth giving up such techniques.

Perhaps a frightened baby will become quieter. But his psyche will be traumatized.

Mothers and fathers should not say the following phrases to their baby.

"If you misbehave, I won't come back for you."

When leaving your child in kindergarten, never tell your child that you may not pick him up.

Being abandoned by parents is one of the biggest fears for children.

Even if a child misbehaves, such intimidation is unacceptable.

"Calm down, or I'll give you to that woman over there."

It is clear that a mother will never give her child to a stranger.

Only a baby can take the threat seriously. And then his psyche will be traumatized.

"The Babayka will come for you soon"

There is no point in scaring little boys and girls with imaginary creatures either.

Perhaps a frightened child will start behaving well. But the risk of developing phobias will be very high.
