Why is the three-year-old disobedient?
Three years old is the age when children are most willful, curious and self-aware. During this period, children are often disobedient, which makes parents feel very troubled. So why do three-year-olds often disobey?
First of all, children\’s discrimination and memory are still developing, and they cannot understand and remember adults\’ words immediately.
Secondly, children begin to gradually experience a sense of self-existence during this period, and sometimes show rebellious and stubborn traits.
Finally, parents may have improper methods when educating their children, or may have excessive demands on their children, which may also lead to children being disobedient.
How to educate a three-year-old child?
Educating three-year-old children requires parents to use some effective methods, which will be introduced in detail from four aspects below.
1. Be patient and don’t yell loudly
The most important thing for parents to educate their children is not to be anxious, communicate more with their children, be patient, and express their opinions and requirements in a gentle tone and concisely. At the same time, parents should also fully guide their children and not push them too hard to avoid overly interfering with their children\’s independent behavior.
2. Don’t be overly authoritative
Some children are often disobedient. In the final analysis, it must be related to the parents\’ education methods. Some parents overemphasize their authority and give unilateral instructions, which will make their children feel bored and make them even more disobedient. Appropriate delegation of authority is a good way of education. As children become more independent, parental guidance and assistance are crucial.
3. Ease children’s emotions
Children will encounter many novel things at this stage. When their emotions cannot be effectively channeled, they will show uncomfortable emotions such as anxiety and irritability. Parents can guide their children to vent their emotions and let them feel that their emotions are understood and cared for, which will effectively reduce children\’s disobedience and challenging parents\’ behavior.
4. Create a suitable environment
A child\’s environment directly affects the child\’s emotions and behavior. Parents can create a stable, warm, and loving environment at home to avoid placing excessive pressure and restrictions on their children, so that their children can enjoy learning and living in a comfortable environment.
How to educate a three-year-old child who is disobedient?
When educating three-year-old children, parents need to fully understand their children\’s psychological characteristics and use some effective methods to guide them. It is recommended that parents not interfere too much in their children\’s behavior, give their children freedom appropriately, and communicate more with their children in order to understand, respect and help their children grow. At the same time, creating a good family environment, maintaining a positive, open, and trusting attitude, and firming up the basic principles of family education will allow children to achieve good learning, life, and psychological development as they grow.
