The most difficult part of the work of a parent or guardian is giving no-good care to children when they are angry. This may arise from feelings of tiredness to the irritation.
It is important to remember that anger is not the same as aggression. Anger is a feeling of temporary state caused by frustration, confusion, sadness, and pain, while aggression is a behavior that sometimes tends to hurt a person or destroy their property.
Moreover, this feeling of anger is transferred on to the child. It confuses the chld on what he or she may have done wrong that could have warranted such an inappropriate punishment or reaction coming from their primary care giver. This leads to the child acting impulsively or in aggression towards their peers and at times being tense and anxious. Similarly you can develop low self-esteem in a child and sometimes lead to depression by suppressing their feelings.
Parents should help and teach their children to manage and /or control their anger and express their feelings, known as emotional literacy, and to help them develop appropriate interpersonal relationships.
Self-control is a learned skill and children during the pre-school learn from watching others, but in their direct learning with the use of rewards and consequences.
1. Ignore inappropriate behavior that cannot be tolerated. Say NO when necessary. The limits of their behavior should be clearly explained.
2. Provide escape areas - physical exercises at home and at school, in order to focus their energy on other activities.
3. Take an interest in the child's activities. The failures and frustrations can often seem minor when children know their parents love and are proud of them for other things that they can achieve.
