Behavior – the good and the bad

February 10, 2021 by Linda Patterson Leave a Comment

Spread the love

Good behavior in school starts with good behavior at home.

Having respect for others

Being kind to one another

There are many ways to have good behavior no matter where YOUR child is.

Most important is the fact that YOUR child should:

Be on time

prepared

responsible

cooperative

respectful

What YOU have to understand just because YOUR child’s friend is:

Not on time

prepared

responsible

cooperative

respectful

Your child should make it their priority.

Talk about what is expected.

Behavior – the good and the bad

Listed are some items that will foster good behavior in children:

Play and work with YOUR child often

Express enthusiastic interest in your child’s interests

Engage them in problem-solving – can start on little things and then move into big problem solving

Teach them a language of emotion regulation and emotional intelligence. Children behave well when they have learned to handle the anxieties, frustrations, and disappointments of everyday life. Learning that there are disappointments in life, not everything is a catastrophe.

Teach them to wait-

Offer encouragement, not criticism

Say “No” calmly.

Compromise

Give them responsibilities

Let them know when they have bad behavior and when it is over the line.

Let them know that you are proud of them

Listen

Behavior – the good and the bad

When YOUR child says “Everyone does it”, how many times have children or even adults say that phrase? Millions and millions of times. It does not excuse any of us. I was the second child and there are characteristics that some second children get off the rails more than a 1st child or only children. Stress the good behavior and the benefits that come with good behavior: less stress, well like by friends and looked as leadership, teachers appreciate well-behaved children in their classroom.

Having those good thoughts of YOURSELF and others is important. Do not be jealous, envy or angry.

Your Child and Decision-Making.
