Raising a child is quite a difficult task. It has been found that children rely more on their own observational abilities than anything else. So before we can teach them to follow the rules we make, we must first do the right thing. Due to socio-economic changes and more familiarity with the outside world, the ways in which parents are responsible differ from generation to generation.
When and why should your child say “No”?
Children often make advances. Some parents stick to their "not strict" policy; Some parents settle their claims to avoid a conflict of power, while others are upset when their children are frustrated. The importance of saying “no” to your child cannot be ignored, as it will help your child deal with depression later in life. Let us know about some situations where you have to say "No" and why you should do it ........
1. Actions that can hurt others or ourselves
Children naturally love to experiment and do not understand the consequences of their actions. Therefore, it is the parents' responsibility to prevent them from harming themselves or others.
2. Something broken
When children try to break something, stop them by saying "no" and let them do another safe job, it will make them think about their previous job and help them move on.
3. Say "No" to anything they can do on their own
Sometimes it’s okay to give them a little indulgence, but encourage your kids to be qualified.
4. If you want something that is not needed, say "No" firmly
What attracts the attention of children is what they love. Saying “No” will help them to cope with their frustrations and teach them that they cannot get what they want so that they do not become spoiled children.
5. When there is a change in the plan, say "No"
Our plans may change for certain reasons in certain circumstances. When things don't go the way they want (they're going to lose something they like), politely say "No" to them and let them know that the plan may change.
6. Teach your children to prioritize something in their activities
Depending on the situation, it is important to let your child understand that the needs of others should be given priority over their own needs. The bigger they get, the more generous they become.
7. Pull your beard now on something that will embarrass you later
In the unlikely event that you dislike some of your child's activities, politely saying "No" will help your child understand and compromise.
8. Say "No" to anything that goes against your values.
It's good to know that by saying "no" to something, we're just setting boundaries for them, not hindering their actions or reactions. Here are some tips to help you say "no" to your child's emotions:
We teach our children values through the decisions we make. When your child tests how much you will tolerate, it is best to say “No”.
9. Waste of food
It is the habit of children to play with food when their stomachs are full. If they say no, they will learn to pay for the food they are given.
10. Hitting pets or trees
Children tend to pull pets by their tails or uproot trees from tubs. A sweet “no” helps them to develop empathy and love for other creatures.
How to say "No" to the welfare of the child
1) Alternative proposal
It is easier for a child to hear “No” for a particular thing if you confuse them with something else and help them use their energy elsewhere.
2) When saying "No", teach them the right thing.
Kids are usually attracted to our phones. As soon as they say they can't get the phone, give them another toy to play with as an alternative.
When making corrections, showing them the right way to do things will help them.
3) Teach them to play properly.
When children play with their friends or other siblings, they are exposed to some unwanted faults such as fighting or jealousy. You can engage yourself while playing with them and teach them the right behavior as well as deter them from such behavior.
4) To hurt.
Children hurt others when they are angry - it's part of the process of growing up and they don't realize at first that it's wrong. You can say “No” to them and teach them how to express themselves.
5) Taking the phone.
Kids are usually attracted to our phones. As soon as they say they can't get the phone, give them another toy to play with as an alternative.
A happy child is a happy soul, that radiates positive. Finding an alternative before your child says no can help. Positive parental responsibility will have a long-term effect on the child and help them cope with emotions successfully.
