Reasons and solutions
- Children are very inquisitive. They study the world around themselves every day. For them everything is new. As well as the opportunity to bite another person. Imagine, the child already knows that he has teeth. He can bite off a cracker or an apple. And he becomes interested in what will happen if you do the same with your mother or friend on the court. If the child has bitten for the first time, and you see that he is not angry, but just curious, then perhaps the reason is research.
- A kid of one or two years is already very sensitive, but he still does not know how to express his emotions in words. Instead, he can bite, hit another person or even an animal. This can happen even from an excess of positive emotions.
- Aggression, too, often causes children to bite. This can be facilitated by tensions in the family, parent quarrels, physical punishment in relation to the child. In kindergarten, children bite because of the inability to communicate with peers words, in order to protect themselves and their toys.
How to enter an adult: If the child is still small and does not talk, you need to designate the action: "You bitten me." Explain that it hurts. To stop the occupation, to remove the child from himself a little, making it clear that this behavior is frustrating. If you, for example, keep the baby on your lap, remove it and put it on the floor.
When the child continues to bite, act also. Perhaps the baby will not understand the connection from the first time, but eventually will determine that the bite is not good and entails the termination of a pleasant occupation.
How to behave to an adult: teach the child to show emotions, explain words without using force.
How to enter an adult: first of all, establish good relations in the family, trusting communication with the child, in order to explain to the child in a timely manner how to behave in a particular situation in the right way.
Rules of the series "do not need"
Psychologists are not advised to use force punishment in response to a bite. - Long to read the notation is not worth it. The attention of the child for a short time keeps on one conversation, the more boring for him.
- In any case, the child needs the support, understanding and love of the parents.
If you can not solve the problem yourself: why do your children bite, then you need to seek advice from a psychologist. Together you will find the reasons and decide how best to act in your situation.
