What are 9 ways to punish children that do not affect their personality

1. If the intention is not bad, then punishment should not be given

 Children usually don't want to hurt anyone, they are just exploring new things and learning. In such cases, they should not be scolded or stopped but should be supported, and if they mess up, lovingly. They should be told how to do it right.

 If children are accidentally harmed and punished on such occasion, it will instill fear in them and they will learn more, usually in the presence of adults when someone guides them. You are doing well, but later you cannot decide for yourself.

 2. There is a difference between giving a suggestion and giving an order

 Most of the time parents believe that the strictness that was imposed on them to raise children was absolutely right, so they order the children to forbid everything. And there is a difference between making a suggestion, like telling a child that playing a video game is bad for him is a suggestion, and telling him not to play a video game is a command that falls under the category of punishment.

 If the child is not emotional, he can be punished for not obeying the suggestion, but if the child is sensitive, the command or punishment can disturb him and affect his personality. He must obey the order of the Prophet so that he does not get punished.

 3. Punishment should not be emotional

 When the child does not obey, some parents get very angry and cannot control their anger even though they love their child very much. Or explain, such children, grow up and become subordinate to those whose social status is better than theirs.

 4. To punish in public

 Children should never be punished in front of people because doing so causes shame and anger in them. Psychologists say that children who are punished in public grow up to do the same to their own children. Adopt and die by decision.

 5. If punishment is threatened, give punishment

 If you have warned the child about something that will be punished for doing so, then be sure to punish because according to experts, only the threat of punishment is more dangerous than not punishing because children understand that the parents are just talking and They have no intention of doing this, but if the child recovers immediately, the punishment can be postponed, but in such a case, it is important to explain to the child that his behavior is not normal.

 6. If you don't know who is at fault, then punish everyone

 If you are supervising more than one child and you don't know exactly which child is at fault, don't punish one of them. As a result, the child may suffer from feelings of deprivation and hatred.

 7. Punish only the most recent mistake

 When punishing children, make sure that the punishment is for a recent mistake. If you punish a child for an old mistake, the child may fail to develop a strong character.

 8. Don't give the same punishment for every mistake

 According to experts, it is wrong to give the same punishment for each mistake.

 9. Do not say bad words to children

 

 According to experts, addressing children with the wrong word affects their personality. Rather, ask them to take care of themselves now.
