Dealing with Anger and Children


Dealing with angry kids is exhausting, embarrassing and nerve wracking. You need an entire set of strategies to deal with their rage without losing your marbles or your character in the process.

so important
i read this and felt like this was a description of my day with my two young children. the anger, the frustration, the challenges. i even thought to myself only 10 mins before reading this article how i complemented my 4 year old on NOT hitting her sister. i have begun praising what she is NOT doing, in the hope she will focus on what she SHOULD do. i'd love to hear some more on this subject. thank you for highlighting this important issue.

Always wonderful timing
I much appreciated this timely input. You sound like you are discussing my six -year old. He is a handful and many times I am able to take a deep breath and remember I am a role model for his future. But sometimes I can't when he repeatedly presses my emotional buttons, that he knows so well, in a short period of time.
Again thank you - I am happy to be reminded that I am not alone!
I have my peers and the Almighty.

SANITY CARDS
I have a set of 39 sanity cards which I kept on the wall in every room - thoughts to help me stay calm. There are also kids cards (but only in Hebrew at the moment - actually, it's a good way to learn Hebrew).
To order, write emett@netvision.net.il

normal "angry child" behavior
When a 4 year old gets angry, is it normal for him to punch others or throw toys across the room?
