If a child does not want to do something, never force him. There are many parents who force their children to do something they don\’t want to do and are amazed when their children cry and scream. This is because of course they do not want to be yelled at for being forced to do something they absolutely do not want to do. If your child does not like something, do not force him or her to do it. By doing so, you avoid yelling. Some children are fine with any activity, but others are not. There is definitely a difference between “activity” and “behavior.

An example of an activity would be putting away toys. This is because when children enter kindergarten, they need to be able to clean up after themselves. However, you cannot teach them to put away their toys by yelling at them. How do you know you can teach your child to do that? You have to put the toys away with them a few times and show them how to do it. After a while the child will understand and will have no problem putting it away by himself. Some children are very dexterous, so you only have to show them once to get it. You should never yell after a child. Because you will only encounter the child crying, and that is definitely not your goal.

Another activity is getting dressed. This is something that teaches the child to slow down, rather than yell at them to get dressed quickly and not procrastinate. Even this can make the child cry and that is all. Remember, you need to treat the child slowly. You need to show the child everything so that he learns certain activities and knows how to do certain activities. Many children are very smart and can figure out certain things very quickly. However, yelling at the child will not get you anywhere. Try changing your approach to that child. If you do, you will find that everything will be much better.
