Don’t hit THEM! Most kids learn that behavior by seeing others do it and then they think “wow that’s a great tool to have the desired effect on the world”. And then they learn it works!!! By hitting, biting, scratching, what have you they get their desired effect even if for a moment. That got that toy they wanted or they got your undivided attention for a bit even if you were telling them how unkind that was. Replace as many “no’s” with “yeses” as you can. For example “instead of biting to show your excitement, can you try hugging instead?” Not even kidding I had a kid in my class that chomped the flesh off of people because he was so excited 😂 it doesn’t last forever. Your toddler won’t be bludgeoning people with their cars in high school. Great video thank you for having this out there!

My son never beats or bites anyone, and he never fights over toys or things like that. But, it's hard for me to see other kids doing that to him. He usually doesn't do anything about it, and I'm unsure if I should encourage him to defend himself and also how he should do that. I think he has a very kind heart I don't want him to loose that. He is almost 2yr.

Very informative video and new subby. My question is how to break hitting when a child isn't with you? I have a 4 year old who throws tantrums and hits at daycare/school. He doesn't hit the children but the teacher if he doesn't like something or if the teacher takes something away. He doesn't act like that at home not one bit. I recently changed his daycare to one with cameras so I can see him throughout the day and what I saw threw me into utter shock. I was looking at a completely different child. I ended up finding out his previous daycare is really short staffed, there's 28 children in his room to two adults hints major reason I switched facilities that he attended for 3 years. Previous facility doesn't have cameras and the teachers weren't relaying his behavioral issues at school so when I picked him up I always thought he simply had a good day at school and boy was I wrong. For months, him and other children were able to do literally anything they wanted when they want. Now he has these bad habits he associates with being ok at daycare because again he's completely different at home. I went up to the school when I saw him misbehaving on the camera. He would listen for a while then fall right back into the same bad habits. After a week the daycare decided that facility isn't a good fit for him and asked for him not to come back. Any tips or programs you know of would be greatly appreciated🙂

I'm sorry you are struggling. I know it is difficult. My first suggestion is not going to be something you will like. Stay home with your son. He needs you and these formative years are the most important time. That would be the very best thing to do. Put aside all other things and take time to live with him day in and day out meeting his needs and teaching and training him. This will also let him know that he is your first priority. Even if you have to live in a smaller home, drive a less expensive car, etc. Now, since I don't know you... I realize that you may be the sole provider in your home. If that is the case, then I'm going to send you a video that will help you work with the daycare workers. But also another that will give you direction about how to connect with your son in a way that he will need throughout his life. Let me know if you have any further questions. You can do this! How to help him stop hitting, etc and the daycare worker to know what to do. kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWqZu5WqgparisY.html How to connect with your child in a way that is very important kzread.info/dash/bejne/ameo1M1meLWdobg.html

Hey this is very well put. As an EC professional I have seen many toddler hit. As a natural prek teacher yet assigned to the toddler classroom to lead this was challenging. I had one toddler that was the fastest toddler I have ever seen, pushed the youngest in the class (just transition to my class), and hit myself. Unfortunately the other teachers would not assist so that I could take action on the child in the way you showed. I actually was told by the director that we had to let the toddler be sooth and pacified and allowed to hit or simply they denied they hit or the hitting was not a problem .When I took him away from the situation, told him it was not right, and gave him a break to think on it. Then come back to him for follow up. It was rushed because my co-teachers in other classrooms and director was not pleased I was teaching in my same process you shared. I had to resign yet the director was not pleased with this process and let me go early. I ask you what do you say when EC Centers or parents say this is all normal and let them hit and they will grow out of it on their own. I have to share my husband was a child which this was allowed and it caused lack self control in stressful situation to get angry. I believe this process works when it used. Yet what do you say to professionals and parents that think they need to take a passive and pleasing the child and they the adult should take the break and let the kids hit ????

Alissa Amos Thank you so much for your comment. Unfortunately many parenting professionals today do not teach that children need to learn to behave. Instead they have been taught by their professors in school to distract, pacify, or coddled bad behavior. This is exactly the reason why there is so much turmoil in the parenting world. And why parents are so frustrated when they look to professionals for answers and are told to allow their children to misbehave. I’m sorry you experienced this. Clearly a child who is hitting needs to be taught not to do that by direct intervention and instruction. They also need to learn to apologize as this video teaches. You have hit on a problem that I am encountering many times when teaching parents how to train their children to behave. Many professionals are not willing to cross the line that has been drawn in the parenting world regarding teaching and training. Pacifying is the preferred method in the modern parenting world. That is too bad and it is why we see so many children out of control and parents In constant state of exhaustion and frustration.

I am not a teacher or psych major but we have been having a problem with my son hitting at daycare multiple times over the past couple weeks. My girlfriend has finally jumped on board with my disciplinary action of he gets no toys or treats for the remainder of the night. However, if he is told he is good the next day he will get his toys and a surprise (his mothers idea to get him to behave) he has an amazing day the following. I am not his biological father but he acknowledges me as his dad as I've been there while hes growing and all the things dads should do, so I'm afraid to speak my mind with her to try and correct this behavior. Her response is normally against mine because she knows I grew up in an abusive household and I believe she is afraid I will turn out like my father. I have spanked him before, which she doesnt agree with, but have refrained from it recently in respect for her. But her approach is more of the be good get rewarded style. I dont agree with it at all because hes now conditioned that if he is TOLD hes good he will get something so he behaves. If there's no promise of a toy or surprise he hits or yells. Any advice to work on this issue would be appreciated. Thank you

@MommyAnswerLady

Thank you for asking. First of all, you must realize that you should not give an excuse to a child to misbehave because they have special needs. If you do that, you have already lost the battle. Special needs children may need to be handled differently depending on the situation, but they should not be allowed to misbehave and use their circumstances as an excuse. That starts with you. YOU need to have the mindset that bad behavior is not acceptable no matter which child it is coming from and that all children feel better about themselves and do better in life if they know how to behave. Next, I suggest you look at this video to give you some more pointers on how to teach your children to listen when you speak. If you have any more specific questions, please lmk. I appreciate your comments! kzread.info/dash/bejne/p4ynlJVtZ7qTcbg.html

The child likely sees this as a game and hasn’t been effectively taught that it’s not ok. She needs to understand it’s not a game and it’s not acceptable. Mom needs to take a firm hold and assert her authority as a mom. Look child in the eye, holding hand tightly…uncomfortably if necessary. Look in the eye…”NO hitting.” Also, if child laughs after this behavior, a good swift swat on the behind without anger, a look straight in the eye again and say “No hitting.” Very strongly. The child cannot be allowed to laugh about this without a swift consequence. This is how she will understand it’s not acceptable. Consistent, strong assertion of authority and clear communication and action is what will change the scenario.

The best way to teach her is through practice and training. At a time of no conflict, take her dolls, stuffed toys, etc and talk to her about how wonderful it is to be gentle. Show her how to gently pet the stuffed toy, how to gently stroke the hair of the doll, etc. Have her participate by choosing which doll or toy she wants to gently play with while you are there. Then, show her how to gently place the toy on the floor, pick it up, etc. Smile and make it a positive experience. Then, bring her baby brother into the play and talk to her about how to be gentle with him too. You should also consider making sure you are doing eye to eye time at least twice a day with her. This is to make sure her behavior isn't intentional because of any jealousy she may have regarding her younger sibling. Also, have her help care for brother by bringing things to you like a clean diaper, or putting the dirty one in the trash, holding a bottle if baby takes any water, formula or juice in one. Have her help with bath time, etc. The more she is part of the care of her brother, the more likely she will want to be gentle with him and will learn to be concious of his needs and feelings.

Young children, like the ones in this video, do not "bully". They lack the cognitive skills and/or understanding of what "bullying" is, how it works or how to use it to obtain their desired result. I read your bio. Congrats on your success with home schooling, however, before you make a blanket statement you should at least do some research into those theorists whom you seem to "poo-poo" in your bio.

Young children are learning about dominance, power and control as they grow. Even young ones are LEARNING about this and experimenting with how they treat and respond to others. If you don't know that, what I tell you isn't going to help you understand better. I would suggest you don't know anything about how much or how little research I have done into those I "poo poo". I stand by every statement I made in this video when it is taken in context.

I’m sorry you are struggling. Tantrums must be stopped before you can get the rest of the issues taken care of. Your child is a perfect age for CTM. This method will teach him not to behave that way and then things will calm down. You must take charge so he can have peace and so can you. I’ll send you the link in a minute. I also suggest you look at the entire tantrum playlist on this channel.

My son have autisme and he does not listen but hit throwing thing around

I made my son stop hitting others in one simple step, I grabbed my belt and smacked him really hard on his butt.. Not out of anger but out of a corrective manner (tough love). After I hit him and he stopped crying, I told him, every time you hit I will hit you also.. After that day he never hit any other kid spontaneously.

Thank you for your comment. I cannot address every parental issue but make it clear that this needs to be addressed without anger. There are other videos on this channel that try to help parents have an understanding of their own emotions with suggestions about how to be calm. Other than that, I’m not sure what else I can do other than give tools on how to take care of specific issues. What do you suggest?

Hi, I would like to collaborate with your channel. Dealing with Feeling helps people cope with feelings. We aim to help children cope with feelings early on so they do not struggle with emotions later on but know them as drivers on their path.

This is a good video and honestly it would be perfect for me and my son if it wasn't for the fact that he's nonverbal. So make a video about how to address the issue to a nonverbal child. No it doesn't happen all the time but I could use some advice on how to apply this to a nonverbal child.

@@MommyAnswerLady He is 9 years old. He is autistic. He had a brain injury at 15 months old because we were in car accident and he was lucky to survive and bounce back as well as he did. But because he can't talk he gets more frustrated than a normal kid when he can't have my phone to play with. Even though it only lasts 5 minutes and not much longer, he seems to almost have a complete meltdown whenever the phone dies because he is so addicted to it it's not even funny. So when I have to charge the phone it is all I can do to get it out of his sight. I put it in the bathroom, close the door, put the huge jewelry box in front of the door because if I don't, he won't even wait until it is charged to 1% or 2% sometimes before going straight in there to unplug it from the charger. He absolutely does not understand just how long it takes to charge a phone. He has very little patience if any at all.

@@patriciaedwards6793 I understand. I know you are struggling and I hope you will allow me to be frank. The first thing is the addiction to the phone needs to be remedied. This is not healthy for him. It’s important not to allow yourself to let his disabilities stand in the way of teaching him to behave. A child who is addicted to screens and not taught to behave will be easily angered and depressed. I have a grown son with Asperger’s, ADHD and visually impaired. These disabilities never stood in the way of my expectations for him to behave. And I’m so very glad they didn’t. He would get frustrated more easily, but that just meant he had to learn self-control more diligently. And he did. I wasn’t a perfect mom, so don’t get me wrong. I would get impatient too. But I was determined that he would learn to behave, be happy and content. Growing our relationship was key. You must take charge of this phone issue and find other things that he will be interested in. He needs other outlets to express himself and accomplish goals. You can look him in the eye, speak straight to him, and have him sit out until he apologizes even if it is with signals or sign language that you teach him. He can understand to earn screen privileges. There is another video about screen addiction in kids on this channel. That may help give you more ideas. If he learns programming or other things that are constructive on screen, that’s good. Games are not, so limit those.

@@MommyAnswerLady I don't know. I think that it would be a little too harsh of me to completely deprive him of the phone. He is very well behaved. The only thing that frustrates him to no end is when it dies. Thank you for your opinion but I do not believe that punishing my son or upsetting him even more is the answer. I actually do limit his time on the screen but I don't believe he deserves to completely lose it entirely. He has trouble expressing himself. He does not know how to tell me that he's upset or mad. That is why this happens. We have tried sign language with him several times in the past. But he has never shown interest in it. I am actually trying to improve his handwriting skills and other skills so I already take the phone away for at least one hour or a little more. And nothing that he watches is inappropriate. He loves anything with letters or numbers on KZread with music playing and bright colors in the background of the video. Mostly what he watches is intended for toddlers but that's because he is mentally 5 or 6 years old.

She has shown that she does not have the judgment or skills to properly care for and teach her children.

@@MommyAnswerLady You assumed right, and I would add that neither do I think that verbal threats, shaking, shoving, and pinching is right in any situation other that self-defense against grown, threatening people, which small children are not for obvious reasons. On the other side, I do not think it is easy to break away from these habits when this is what has been done to us at a very young age. I think it is the hardest thing one has to overcome if one wants fully trusting relationship with their children. I do not agree that violence is a natural reaction. I believe the two are linked, and I was originally looking for people who recognize that. Somehow, I keep stumbling up on people who wish to correct children. I don't think it's a bad idea, and one needs to be prepared to deal with this. That's just not what I'm looking for myself. To be honest, I find it disappointing how very rarely the understanding of the children's perspective seems to be the focus of attention. I will continue my search, thank you for your attention.
