when a child acts out when they do not get their way?

Question

our child acts out if she do not get her way

Answer 1

depend's on the childs age... but generally

try to aviod the situation... give your child some control over little things. give them choices... like "Do you want to clean your room before or after you nap?" rather than telling the kid to go clean your roon... which likely will be answered "no!"



tell the child what you expect of them… be reasonable about what to expect from your child and do not expect your child to be perfect. with toddlers generally have not learned all the words to tell you what they are feeling or want and this upsets them… ask them tired or hungry, worried or upset, just need a hug?


When the kid acts out...

Stay calm.
Ignore the child until he/she is calmer.
Do not give in
Stay calm

Answer 2

Do you mean temper tantrums or acting out by hurting people? At one point my toddler would go pinch the dog if something wasn't going her way because she knew that would set us off (mainly b/c I was scared the dog might bite her, you never know if they're hurting them) She had no clue what she was doing really though she just knew it was a button to push. We just had a lot of time outs which didn't work for her so I finally had to resort to spanking her because there weren't any other options. That made it stop pretty quick. If it's a temper tantrum then ignore them until they're done and if you're in a public area such as the grocery store remove them. Go to a bathroom or someplace enclosed where they can throw their fit or go home if you have too.

Answer 3

Hey she's normal, lol. Now you have to have a set of consequences in place to teach her this behavior won't fly.

I am assuming she is young (under 10) try positive reinforcement when she does good. Then if she starts acting out try-
Time out, long time out (1 hour or more), grounding (if she is over 6), take her favorite toys away, take away play time.

When those fail, Use a good old fashioned spanking. Nothing works better as a last resort. Don't mind the research, this is a proven method, used for generations.

Good Luck

Answer 4

That's pretty normal. How to deal with it? Depends on the age of the child, but I try not to acknowledge the behavior. Certainly don't yell or get upset, because that'll only reinforce in the child that she can get your attention that way. And never give in! It may help to remove her from the situation entirely: a little time out won't hurt.

Answer 5

well, it often depends on the child and his/her situation. like if the child is the oldest they may not(personaly i am an oldest sister, so i don't but the sibling closest to me does, i have 4 little siblings), if the youngest or only yeah they normaly do because 9 times out of 10 everyone spoils them( no insult meant to the people who do the spoiling), middle children will probably sulk and make 1 or 2 comments( age pending on how loud they will be about it). Yes, most act out to get their way or attention

Answer 6

Depends on their age, but generally l would say ignore the tantrum. If your child does not get the attention they are seeking by acting up, that should make her stop doing this.
Now if it doesn't work, l would go ahead and tell her that you are going to spank her bottom if she doesn't stop it. And she is going to try you, so just smack her bottom, firmly, but don't leave a bruise there. Just spank hard enough for her to feel it and to make her realize that this was not an empty threat.
Good luck to you

i think of you have illustrated/painted a physically powerful photograph right here and in some techniques I believe you. South Africans many times are feeling of their daily existence what proportion human beings sense touching directly to the happenings in this very dialogue board in the final week or so. I see a frustration and South Africans is nearly a rigidity cooker that has develop steam and able to blow up. there are maximum of themes that reason this. we would desire to continually take care of will develop in nutrition expenses, gasoline expenses, sluggish economic develop and the crime ingredient. we seem at government and ask, WHY!? Silence and denial is all we get. I mentioned many cases that admire and tolerance is going a protracted way. i do no longer could believe you or any ANC supporter or participant right here yet my movements in the direction of fellow individuals or fellow South African could be of such that i'm respected for my very own believes. one ingredient that I even have endorsed earlier and something which I nonetheless say is 'attack the question and not the guy'. you're able to have heated debates and show your thoughts without being very own. that's my view which i'm no longer afraid to state brazenly. i will only call for sanity and my charm to each physique is to grant one yet another the hand and say sufficient is sufficient. I advise, we are able to no longer proceed like this!. that's a shame and as Christians, we would desire to continually sense ashamed of ourselves. am i able to charm to each physique to deliver this dialogue board lower back to what it grew to become into. that's large debating yet no longer this struggling with and mistrust among us.

Answer 8

What has worked best for me when my daughter does that is I just ignore her ugly behavior. She will cry and throw a fit for a few minutes, but when she figures out that I don't respond to it, she stops acting out. As long as she is not physically harming herself or others then just let her throw a fit. Now if you are out in public and she does that, take her to the car and let her throw her fit there. It can be somewhat inconvenient, but it really works. Good Luck!

Answer 9

You can either blister her bottom or walk away saying: Who's child is this? I am a firm believer in corporal punishment... Screw what the "Doctor Spocks" and the "Time Outers" say... a spanking once in a while doesn't hurt anything but the kids pride...

Answer 10

all kids do that .sometimes it to see if they k get there way or to get attention. i got my 11 year old daughter out of that about a year ago by just not giving in it took a week of crying but it worked .

GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!
