ANGER SEIZURE CONTROL IN CHILDREN - PSK. CANSU IVECEN

There are many methods to deal with anger attack, but the method that works in one child may not work in the other. We can see the best example of this in the differences of their reactions to anger among the brothers.

Our ultimate goal is not only to end the crisis but also to support our child in this situation.

It should be taught that children will experience some physiological changes in the face of anger situations.

Children may not notice changes in their body prior to their anger, but this is a stimulating siren for anger control.

"What caught your body's attention when talking about anger?" You can ask them to embody anger by using crayons where they feel the anger most in their body by asking questions such as or drawing a human picture.

At this point, it will be useful to emphasize that anger is a normal feeling like other emotions, but it is important that we reflect it.

Do not try to persuade him when your child is in anger crisis. In the meantime, try to postpone talking about this situation until later, as it will be completely closed outside. Take care to be calm, determined and calm.

When your child is on a temper tantrum or catches up with a request, they seem to be not interested by cutting eye contact with him.

Speak about his behavior when he is calm and stops crying. Express why crying is not a valid method, stating why you do not approve of his behavior and how his requests will be met.

Remember guys are actually trying your limits.

What You Should Do;

• If it is in a place where it can damage it, move it to a safe place.

• Plan what to do outside by talking to your child in advance to avoid an anger crisis outside the home. For example, "When we go to the mall, we will only buy toys for your friend's birthday. You can look at all the toys, but we will only buy them for your friend." like.

• You can give soft objects so that his anger can go out.

• You should appreciate it when you are calmly trying to solve problems.
