Pai boys and always smiling girls exist only in fairy tales and in the dreams of parents. The real child is far from the book ideal: he is capricious, screaming - sometimes too loud and too long, stubborn. In a word, he does everything to make his father and mother desperately grab at their heads. But maybe everything is much simpler?
Lack of feedback is a common cause of misunderstanding. If you want the kid to hear you, make sure first that his attention is focused on you. Do not scream violently from another room or the opposite end of the playground - you need to approach the child, establish eye contact with him, take his hand and quietly voice the request.
The confusion of priorities is not obvious, but a serious phenomenon. In addition to proper nutrition and a clear regime, the baby needs active and benevolent support of an adult: mom or dad, or better - both. The lack of such participation is difficult to compensate for by material things.
Pressing is something that parents sometimes tend to substitute for education as such. The essence of human nature is resistance to pressure, no matter how useful it might seem. The child just follows the instincts - does it make sense to blame him? Maybe it's much wiser to just raise him in love and understanding.
