Children begin to take offense at an early age, but quickly forget about grievances, but from 5-6 years old a child is able to remember grievances for a long time.
This can be a problem, as the child may be offended even by something that is not worth paying attention to. Some parents begin to praise the child more, some leave everything as it is, which can only aggravate the situation. This article is for parents who really want to help their child.
In order to help, you need to find out what are the reasons for resentment:
- Rejection in the team. The child needs attention, he wants to be part of the team, to participate in events, but he is not accepted. This may be a reason for resentment.
- The child may be offended by teasers, nicknames, etc., for example, the parents themselves, as a joke, somehow called, and the child took seriously.
The child is trying to manipulate his parents with the help of his grievances. In this situation, most parents behave incorrectly. They begin to feel sorry and praise their child and this only worsens the situation.
In order to make it easier for a child to live in the future, it is better to teach him not to keep everything in himself and not to accumulate negative from grievances. It is worth letting the child speak out, explain how he feels. This will help the child learn how to express their opinions and emotions and get rid of negativity.
In no case can you compare the child with other children. If you constantly tell your child that someone has better grades, someone behaves better, achieves better results and similar things, you can raise a child unsure of himself.
