Today's video is very helpful for the parents as well as for their children. In our this video Vaishali Lal from Takshila Learning discusses the reasons behind why children tend to get Angry and ways parents can cope with it. In this videos role of parents in the development of the child is highlighted. Watch complete video.  As a child grows up he or she starts to interact with the world. These interactions slowly starts to attract the child a lot and he starts to get fully involved in them. The child develops his own likes and dislikes, list of things which are fascinating him, his expectations from his parents, siblings and friends. If the child gets what he wants and what he is aspiring for, he becomes happy, if he doesn’t get what he wants, the child gets annoyed. If regularly things are not moving according to their wishes, frustration and anger start to creep into the personality of the kid. The upbringing of the child during his developmental years and the environment he gets to get groomed creates the psychological temperament and attitude of the child. Parents play an important role in this development of the child. Frustration and anger can quickly turn into defense, disrespect, aggression and temper tantrums if your child doesn’t know how to deal with these emotions. If left unchecked aggression in childhood such as fighting and teasing can further result into academic problems, peer rejections, poor mental health in adulthood. This has to be understood by parents and they have to be coached to take care of their kids during the developmental years of the child. If your child has trouble in controlling his/her anger then we can help. You can follow some easy steps through which anger of your child can be controlled by him. Anger Management Skills Differentiate Between Feelings and Behavior – Anger is normal, a healthy emotion. But many kids fail to understand the difference between angry feelings and aggressive behavior. Teach your child to identify his feelings so that he/she can speak his feelings of anger, frustration and disappointment. “Say it’s OK to feel angry but it’s not at all OK to hit.”Help him to control his/her anger. Model Appropriate Anger Management Skills – The best way to teach your child about managing anger is by showing him how you deal with your emotions when you feel angry. If you lose your temper, he/she will likely to do the same. But if he sees you coping up with it, he/she will pick up on that too. Teach your child to express his/her emotions too. For example“ I’m angry, the car in front of us didn’t stop to let those kids cross the streets.” In this way, your child will also learn to express the feeling of anger. Take responsibilities to accept your mistakes when you are angry. Say I’m sorry for yelling and getting mad at you, I should have gone for a small walk so that my mind should be calmed.   Make Anger Rules – Most of the families have unofficial family rules about what behavior is accepted and what isn’t. When it comes to anger some families have a tolerance of acceptance while other families don’t and start taking some physical action or speak abusively. These things create a barrier in children’s understanding about what action should be taken when anyone is in anger. This can lead to a negative impact on their innocent mind. Teach problem-solving skills – Kids need to know appropriate ways to deal with their anger. When siblings fight with each other, instead of being told “Don’t hit your brother”, explain what she can do when she feels frustrated. Tell her to walk away when she feels angry or remains quiet. By teaching these kinds of problem skills, your child can recognize and she can solve the problem without resorting to aggression. Talk about ways to resolve conflict peacefully. Sports, Yoga, Pranayam and Meditation -In case your kid has already developed this habit of getting aggressive when he is angry, you should also explore the possibility of they undergoing a course on yoga, pranayama and meditation to learn to channelise the anger whenever the child is in that mental state. Additionally, encourage your child to pick up some sport of his liking this will help him to calm down. Parents, please remember – You are the role models of your kids. You have to learn to control your anger and if you are angry you should be able to flush out your anger in a very controlled and peaceful way. Once your kids see peaceful parents they will also start following this.  #ManagementofAngerInChildren #elearning  Role of Parents in the development of the Child Why Child gets Angry Frustration and anger Anger Management Skills Make Anger Rules    For further assistance please call us at 8800-999-280/84  Connect with us:- https://www.facebook.com/takshilalearn/ https://www.youtube.com/takshilalearn https://www.linkedin.com/company/takshilalearn https://www.instagram.com/learningtakshila/ https://in.pinterest.com/takshilaelearn/ https://twitter.com/TakshilaLearn
