Anger Management in Children

post #1 of 3

"My child has these angry outbursts, yelling and griping at us. Sometimes I can't believe she would talk to us like that! What should I do?"

An angry child is very often the direct product of an angry, frustrated parent and their attempts at anger management. An occasional temper tantrum is a normal event for children two to four years, but if this kind of normal behavior is met with parental anger or "discipline" it may very well confirm and deepen the very angry behavior we are trying to get rid of! The child will learn from his or her favorite role models (his parents) and mimic their behaviors.

While each child is different, the following generally describes these stages of anger:

Re: Anger Management in Children

Yes Yes Yes! That's 100% true. Your children are a spitting image and reflection of you. Always remember to act right cause you never know when they are watching waiting to learn something new from you.
