Have you ever come across a situation where you throw a temper at your children, who fight for a toy? Yes, many of you have encountered that, unless you have only one child.
Many Asian parents do not know the proper method of handling children fighting, and eventually, leads to sibling rivalry.
As a parent, you need to be as much sensitive as possible, on the psychological aspect of your children especially during the period of their upbringing. Every little thing you do, or going to do, will eventually create an impact of your children
When your children fight, you are not advised to beat, reprimand or take side by investigating the culprit, because this will ultimately create sibling rivalry. The wrongdoer, may perceive you as practicing favoritism, and hold grudge against the others.
What you should do is, to separate them, and put each of them at different corner for 5 minutes, and assemble them later.
The parent should then explain to them that ‘beating is hurtful’, and it is wrong. Parent must understand that children is very single-minded thus, they need to see the expression of being hurt in order to understand it is wrong.
Last but not least, make both of them apologize to each other, and give each other a hug
The rule of ‘everyone get one and the similar one!
Parent must understand their role at home as an informal teacher, the least you can do, is to make sure that you are practicing a fair and square system at home, for example, if you are buying a birthday present for one of your child, then you must buy the similar present for the rest of the child at the same time.
