They are still kids, and they don't just need to, but more often try to obtain boundaries.

Parents can now show children strong love without allowing them to run right over us. We should all remember the phrase, "Unwavering Love Will not really Say You Have had to Acknowledge Wrong Behavior patterns Selflessly."



In adolescent years, mercy has become an essential tool, but so does set boundaries. They are still kids, and they don't just need to, but more often try to obtain boundaries. It informs them what they would anticipate from you and how much you anticipate from them. They could be in a sour mood or be unhappy with us.



We must allow them to express all of their feelings. They do, however, require our guidance about how to correctly convey some of these feelings or what the regulations are considering their behavior and attitude.

"We are a family, and we talk to each other using kind words."

Although TV, social media, and the many other influences our older children are exposed to may set a bad example, we must be the balancing voice that reinforces that speaking impolitely to others is unacceptable.



Respond to children who are unkind to you or to each other by saying, "We are a family, and we talk to each other using kind words." It's also perfectly acceptable for us to tell our tweens and teens when they've hurt our feelings.



When it comes to developing empathy, it is critical to challenge them to consider how their words and actions affect others. They should learn to grow up if they want to be treated that way. We demonstrate this by defining what is disrespectful and hurtful and consistently enforcing the consequences when they cross the line.  



A reward for a desired behavior can quickly backfire

External rewards should be avoided.



It can be very tempting to use rewards or perks to get our child to do something. Giving a child a reward for a desired behavior can quickly backfire because the child comes to expect the reward every time.



They may comply with your wishes, but they are also becoming extrinsically motivated.

Rewarding children for activities they want to do, such as coloring with markers, decreases the child's desire to do the activity in the future. This could be because offering rewards conveys the message that an activity is inherently unpleasant, or that the child should not even want to or to be forced to do it if there is something in it for them.

There is no unquestionably best method for teaching struggling readers.

Dyslexic children have a hereditary disability that can be treated–dyslexic children must be taught to read better, especially with regard to what is known as "phonemic awareness," or the sound each letter makes.

Allowing children to use assistive resources such as audiobooks and note takers, requiring specialized teacher training, and providing more accommodations on examinations are all brilliant points.

Dyslexic children, who make up about 5% to 15% of the population, have a neurological condition, a central nervous system idiosyncrasy that makes it difficult for them to associate letters and letter groups with sound waves.


"There is no unquestionably best method for teaching struggling readers." 


Their brain connections will not rewire it.

If your child expresses an interest in sports, video games, or photography, try to stimulate their interest by providing reinforcement.



They believe they aren't excellent at it if there isn't constant encouragement. This isn't a  sign.

As a result, piquing their curiosity will encourage them to take the next step. However, due to a shortage of time, children will have to give it up in order to focus on their studies. It's all right.



However, remind children to take part in their fun activities at least 2 times a week. As a result, they will be connected in some way. If they don't do it for an extended period of time, their brain connections will not rewire it. Rarely, there may be some interesting activities which are not recommended; yes, this really does happen.



Offer recommendations for how they might do such tasks in such a better, more compelling way without bothering themselves or others. You can control their work this way.


Shower them with affection to boost their self-esteem.

Building your child's self-esteem is a challenging task for anyone.


But, not for parents.


Unconditional love from parents has the potential to boost children's self-esteem. More love should be poured into their lives. It is unfair to expect the same from them since it is not always in their best interests.


As a result, you may vent out, resulting in some unexpected wild behaviors. It will undoubtedly disturb the peace in your family. In the coming days, only your love will be able to help them. So shower them with affection to boost their self-esteem.

Begin by teaching them in an unconventional way,

It is natural for everyone to recall what happened just a few hours or days ago. Likewise, it would be too difficult for children to retain what they have learnt earlier.



Yes, all teaching inputs cannot be retrieved at the same instant. However, if the children discover something interesting, it will not be difficult to retrieve. So, before you introduce some new notions, pique their interest. It's also not that difficult to accomplish.



Begin by teaching them in an unconventional way, using a few unstructured approaches to help them grasp inputs from us that they will remember for a long time.


Exercise has a strong outcome on both learning and family.

Allow your youngster to sweat at least three times a week for no more than an hour at a time.


Dopamine, a reward neurotransmitter associated with motivation and learning, is released in greater amounts. Regular exercise improves their neurocognitive functions, and also their ability to focus on something new. It boosts their systemic resistance.





Exercise boosts brain function.

It's a smart option to exercise with your child. Please don't be embarrassed, and don't unintentionally teach your child unhealthy habits. To strengthen your connection, do the exercise with them. Exercise has a strong outcome on both learning and family.

Lack of motivation to study is that they are stressed.

The most common explanation for children's lack of motivation to study is that they are stressed.

The most significant contributor is parents. If you genuinely want your child to accomplish their task independently, don't keep giving them directions on a regular basis. It irritates their minds and makes them feel mentally exhausted.


So, even if they don't always follow it, please allow them a free hand. When they do, thank them and keep reminding them of their previous accomplishments. This encourages them to stay motivated.


As a result, kids study cheerfully and stress-free.

Teenagers' most common problem is aggression.

Teenagers' most common problem is aggression.


Because the prefrontal lobe of teenagers is still developing, it can only be addressed with patience. It takes more than a decade for it to reach its full potential. As a result, you should offer them a break from their hostile behavior.

To take a break from it, say something softly and with soothing body language to them. For at least a few days, don't bring up that behavior. Give them time to rewire their brain. After a few days, approach them when they are not expecting it, such as during a coffee break, a drive, or a stall. Talk to them politely and tell them how you expected them to act in that situation. And then leave it at that.



You can expect these on track in the near future.

It's not difficult to connect with your child.

It's not difficult to connect with your child. 



 

First and foremost, do not attempt to scapegoat your child for any other reason.

Try to discuss or listen to them about something in which he or she is interested. Even if their content is incorrect, if you are connected to them, you can correct them.

Don't show your rejection all at once; instead, take your time and speak about it later.

Find something they are good at and encourage that quality. Turn off the television and schedule at least one family meal time per day.

Finally, regardless of their age, try to have good bedtime stories or talk about your past or their future and sleep together in the same room.

This allows you to connect with your child.

Unconditional Love Doesn’t Mean That You Have To Unconditionally Accept Bad Behaviors.

Reinforce Rules and Respect...





Now, we can show our kids fierce love without allowing them to run right over us...  We should  all take the following words to heart, ” Unconditional Love Doesn’t Mean That You Have To Unconditionally Accept Bad Behaviors.”...  Giving grace becomes an important tool in these tween and teens years, but so does setting limits... They are still children and they not only need, but often want boundaries... 

It helps them to know what to expect from you and what you expect of them...They can have bad moods and they can be angry with us... We need to give them the space for all those emotions... However, they need us to guide them on how to properly express those emotions and what the rules are when it comes to their behavior...

Although TV, social media and many other influences our older children are exposed to may provide poor examples,


RE


We have to be the balancing voice reinforcing that speaking to others disrespectfully is not acceptable... Respond to children when they are talking to you or even to each other in a rude way that “we are a family and we talk to each other using kind words.”... It’s also totally okay for us let our tweens and teens know when they’ve hurt our feelings...

Challenging them to think about how the things they say and do impact others is vital when it comes to developing empathy... If they want to be treated like adults, they have to act like adults... We show them how by defining what being disrespectful and hurtful looks like and by consistently enforcing the consequences when they cross the line...

Don’t Take It Personally... We were all their once.

Tweens and teens are experts and knowing exactly how to use words as weapons...




They understand how to inflict the most damage with even the simplest things they say... As their parents/teachers, we become almost daily targets in their ongoing battle of them against the world... Wow, can it be painful, but we need to realize it isn’t personal... The tween and teen years are filled with turmoil... 



Hormones are raging, bodies are changing in sometimes confusing and uncomfortable ways, and their brains aren’t yet fully developed to help them cope with all of this... They are also stuck in this place where adulthood is approaching and they are striving for more independence, but at the same time they are desperately seeking the approval of everyone in their life from parents to peers...

We were all their once. 




Try to think back to what it was like during this time for you...  You surely said some things, or maybe lots of things, to your parents / teachers that you regret. But as long as you came from a fairly healthy home, you and your parents survived and probably have a good relationship these days... For the most part, the surely demeanor of our tweens and teens is a simple defense mechanism...  They’re scared and unsure and often this is when our kids lash out the most... This was true even when they were younger... They are testing us, looking for reassurance that we will love them, no matter what... So, even at their ugliest, we need to meet them where they are with love...

A power struggle with kid and turned into something less volatile and more productive...

Recognize When They Are Pushing Your Buttons... 



When your child/student is standing there in front of you with their face full of attitude and nonsense coming out of their mouth it can be so hard to keep it together...When we match their intensity with our own frustrations, anger and yelling (and throwing things) it only serves to add fuel to the flames of their inner angst...  And we become an unwilling role model, reinforcing the same behavior and actions we’re trying to move them away from...

Keep It Calm...



When possible, even though it may require enormous restraint on our parts, the better approach is to keep our voices at normal volume and tone...  Set the rules of engagement for them... Explain that you’ll be happy to listen or talk with them about the issue if they can do so in a more reasonable way...They want to be in charge and they are hoping to bait you into meeting them on their turf, where they’ve got the advantage. Refusing to match their level of  intensity allows you to take back control and may in itself be enough to disarm the situation... 

If they still can’t pull it together...




Give them some space and time to cool down...  Revisit the issue later when everything isn’t so emotionally charged...  But be sure they know you’re not blowing them off or letting them off the hook... You might even set a specific time, like after dinner or the upcoming weekend or break times... Either way, you’ve taken a power struggle and turned into something less volatile and more productive... 


Raising internally motivated kids can be difficult.

Work alongside your child...




Most children are highly motivated by a desire to be part of a community... 

To spark your child’s intrinsic motivation to help at home, try involving him in everyday life, in the daily work of the household... Rather than assigning a task like asking him to go clean his room while you clean the kitchen, invite him to help you fold the laundry or cook dinner with you... Is this the fastest way to get things done?  No, definitely not. But it will become a time of bonding rather than a time of nagging and resisting... It will help your child experience the good feelings that come from helping just to be a good family member, rather than to earn money or a sticker on a chart...




Raising internally motivated kids can be difficult. It means we can’t always use the quick fix that will get our child to sit quietly in the grocery cart or leave the park without a fuss...  But it’s worth the effort to protect the natural drive that every child is born with –that desire to work hard and master new skills just for learning’s sake...
