Does your kid almost always get his/her way? Do you find yourself ignored when you say “No!” and then he/she throws a tantrum? You think, ‘Well, it’s just a phase. He’ll grow out of it.” If you’re pulling your own hair out, there’s hope…..Here’s how you can teach your child to obey you. First, let’s consider a reason for his misbehavior.
Change your Role At first, your child came into the world and your role was “care giver”. Your baby was totally dependent upon you for every beckon call. Then at two years old he begins to see that the world isn’t revolving just around him any more. As a parent you naturally reverse your rules and begin to expect the child to follow your orders. Some children throw tantrums. Others just refuse to listen and obey. This is a critical time for parents. Some of you are at a loss as to what to do or what avenues to take.
Here’s What To Do
1. Take The Lead:Assert your authority and always stay consistent.
2. Assert Firm Discipline:Give your child rules and punishments if they are broken. Never be harsh or abusive, but follow through.
3.Give Clear Direction: Be united with your spouse in regards to rules and discipline. No not negotiate or go over and over rules with your children. Let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your No’ be ‘No’.
4.Consider A Good Behavior Reward: After you have seen a marked improvement in your child’s behavior you might consider giving him a little reward. He must understand that any other rewards would be only given by his consistent good behavior and respect for your rules. This lets your child know that obedience pays off and that you also respect him.The end result will be peace in your home and that will unite your family.
5.Be Loving: Children must be guided toward responsible adulthood. A large part of the process comes from disciplining your child to obey you. this helps them feel secure and loved.
