Raising your own voice is simply a losing battle: this doesn’t discourage any bad behavior and it ultimately gets parents as well as kids more upset. And then, there’s the guilt too, of course – and who really needs more of those? Here are ways to help break through this bad habit of yelling at your kids:
Realize that yelling is just ineffective
One wouldn’t really consider screaming at an annoying neighbor or friend, yet yelling at your misbehaving kid is a standard for most parents. Parents simply assume that since everyone does it, so yelling is harmless. The teachers at the playgroup in Borivali West suggests that, it not juts the case. Yelling only belittles kids and also undermines the bond between parent and child.

Instead of shouting, just say ‘stop it’
Say ‘stop it’ when your child misbehaves and repeat if necessary. Whenever necessary, how your kid firmly and try to explain it to them that what they are doing is not okay. Parenting experts and the counsellor at playgroup in Borivali suggest that toddlers have around 80% likelihood of repeating the misdeeds with the very same day, and 50% chances of repeating it within a few hours. Instead, repeating your messages without yelling is a better and less harmful tactic in the long run.
