Many people know about the existence of "filler words".
We are talking about nouns, function words and whole phrases that do not carry any semantic load and make speech less beautiful.
There are many examples: “well”, “like”, “as if”, “in general”, “true”, etc.
And there are whole "parasite phrases". This is how you can call some popular parental remarks that do not help in raising a child.
These phrases, as well as “filler words”, need to be gotten rid of.
"I told you so!"
Many mothers and fathers are sure that this phrase helps make a child more obedient: the baby supposedly begins to realize that his parents are right.
In fact, this remark does not help in education at all. It only worsens the situation: the child gets upset and offended.
"Come on faster!"
Attempts to “speed up” a child with such phrases are rarely effective.
Want your child to do something faster? Then turn the execution of this or that action into a "game". Take a stopwatch and tell your child: "If you manage to get ready in 1 minute - you win."
"Come on, stop crying!"
In most cases, it is useless to ask children to stop crying.
The thing is that children are upset by their parents' overly harsh reactions. As a result, negative emotions only intensify.
It's better to hug a crying child.
"But Masha..."
You can criticize your child carefully, but you shouldn't compare him to other children. The effectiveness of such an "educational technique" is questionable.
"Don't be afraid"
Many children have long noticed this pattern: if a parent suggests “not to be afraid,” then there is still something scary.
Therefore, never tell your baby: "Don't be afraid! The injection won't hurt!"
Otherwise, the child will be offended by you: “You said it wouldn’t hurt, but it did!”
