Mindful Parenting: Is your child angry and hitting you? What is the pediatrician's advice? Learn parenting techniques before complaining..

Why Kids Throw Tantrums: Often parents ignore the behavior of young children by calling them “naughty”, “stubborn” or “angry”. But have you ever thought that children behaving like this is not their fault, but can be a sign of their emotional pain? Senior Consultant Pediatrician Dr. Deepa Aggarwal believes that there is a need to understand the anger or stubbornness of children, but often parents are unable to understand their feelings and start scolding them. According to Dr. Deepa, often children start hitting their mother, but is it the child's fault… or are we missing out on looking at something deeper? Why do children do this?

When a child hits someone, bites someone, or rolls on the floor and cries, he is immediately labeled as a 'miscreant' or 'rude'. But this can be an expression of negative feelings like nervousness, hunger, and fear within them, which they are unable to express in words.

What is the scientific reason-
Experts say that the brain of small children, especially their frontal cortex (which is responsible for thinking and impulse control), is not fully developed yet and is still in the process of development. This process continues till the age of about 5 years. Therefore, they are unable to express their big emotions in words, and when the situation is not under control, their reaction is to hit, cry, or scream.

How should we behave with them-
If the child is behaving like this, then it is time that we should not look at the behavior of children only from the point of view of discipline, but also look at the emotional reasons hidden behind them. Understand the signs. For example, the next time your child gets angry or stubborn, ask yourself, “Does he need my help right now or just scolding?”
