Tips on Facing a Spoiled Child

You get used to fulfill what is asked of your child, it could be one day your child becomes accustomed to one who does not accept "no", both of you as parents or friends who may be away from it.

This is a sign you spoil your child:

• When you provide a meal on the table, your child will not eat food that has been presented in the table. You want another child's food, and you made him even if he asked for food that does not have sufficient nutrients for development. 

According to David Elkind, PhD, head of Child Development at Tufts University and author of The Hurried Child: Growing up Too Fast Too Soon, maybe once or twice you could make her favorite breakfast. But if you make what he asks of food every day and refused to eat what's on the table, then you've indulged your child not to accept everything as is.

• Temper tantrums are common in children, but if the child 5 to 6 years of throwing everything around him because they do not get what they want, it's not a natural thing. "On the one hand, it could be just his way of expressing feelings, but with age children are old enough then it could be a manipulation," says Elkind. 
• Your child will not sleep alone without the company of his father or his mother; even a child does not want company babysitter or grandmother. Or do not want to go to school if you as parents do not deliver or pick her up at school, this are a problem. Elkind says a child who is dependent on his mother when he grows up he will not be able to learn to feel good about themselves with others.  

There is a way out you can do, such as: 

• Set limits on your child safe. Tell your child, "Do not touch this", and "Do not run on the highway." Do not forget to explain the reason why you do these limits slowly, so that he could accept the explanation that you provide. 
• Say positive things to your child. Do not hesitate and feel proud to say "please" and "thank you" even the word "sorry" even if you make mistakes to him. 
• Speak more openly to your child. If you look at it like I'm facing a problem, then invite him to sit down with you and discuss the problem and then find the solution. If the child remained silent and did not want to talk, just say, "I know what you are dealing with." questions 'knowingly' you will stimulate her to speculate and talk about what he faces. 
• Stay calm. If you confront your child's anger with a temperament you have, the problem will not be completed. In fact, the child will feel uncomfortable and avoid you. Deal calmly and gently, so that your child will feel the attention from you.
