When youre managing children, it can be difficult to remember that they are still learning. If you find yourself yelling at your kids more often than you want to, here are some ways that can help you reduce the yelling. I’ve been working on this for the past few months and I have to say,it’s been amazing for both the kids and me.If you are having an argument with your child, you need to make sure you both take the time to really listen. It gives both of you time to think and really listen to each other, which is important. Kids are more likely to listen to you if you listen to them!One of your biggest struggles is to remind yourself of appropriate expectations. You can’t expect that your youngest acts as responsibly as your oldest. You should lower what you expect -taking into consideration things like their age - it can make a big difference. You should do your best to take a moment before yelling and take in a deep breath. It makes a world of difference for you. Instead of yelling, you’d better whisper. It can also help diffuse any situation by making things quieter, not louder. Besides, the more time you spend with your kids, the better you’ll get at communicating with them. You’re both more likely to understand each other.If your children aren’t listening or it seems they only don’t listen to you, you don’t take it personally. You should remind yourself that your kids are still learning and they’re not going to be perfect.( )21. As a parent, you may know that parenting is an easy job.( )22. Listening to each other is a good way to stop argument between parents and their kids.( )23. Usually younger kids behave less responsibly than elder children.( )24. Parents should lower their expectation for their kids.( )25. Both yelling and whispering can help make things quieter.

In a world where self-gratification is emphasized,empathy is in short supply but high demand Here,'s how to teach your kids how to have empathy.Empathy is one of those strange qualities-some thing almost everyone wants,but few know how to truly give or receive it.this is all the more reason to teach the next generation what it means to have empathy for those around them 1.While some children are gifted with naturally kind hearts,in most cases kids need to see empathy modeled by the adults around them.It begins with the way parents relate to their children.Parents who show an interest in the things that matter to their kids and respond to emotions in a positive and caring way are teaching the skill of empathy 2.When children have their emotional needs met,two things happen They learn how to meet the emotional needs of others and they are anchored in what they are receiving,meaning that they are secure enough to give to others when the need arises but first they need to receive.An empty jug cannot fill a cup.3.There is nothing like a real life example to model what you are teaching Look for situations that affect another person and talk to your kids about what it means to the people involved and how they might feel.For example,if you see an ambulance speed past,talk about how the family members of the sick person might be feeling 4.Younger kids in particular love to pretend that they are someone or something else.You can use ese fun times for teaching empathy.Get your kids playing the role of another person.This might be a character in a book or on tv,or even someone you know who has been througn a significant experience lately.You can act out the story together and ask your kids to stop and imagine how their character night have been feeling at any given moment.This will focus their attention on the emotions that another person might experience when in that situation.You can ask them to make faces that reflect the feelings of their character.5.Teaching your kids the difference between right and wrong from a young age gives them a strong internal moral compass that will direct them to make good choices.In situations that require a decision,help them to see how our choices and behavior affect others.Talk to them about how wrong doing harms others and help them to see the hurt and damage that it causes.It's a good idea to talk to them about the little things such as calling a sibling an unkind name that hurts her feelings or refusin to play with the leir brother when friends visit.When building a strong moral foundation,start small and begin with the basics.3选?A.Develop their inner moral compassB.Empathetic kids:givers not takersC.Kids need to see adults show empathyD.Look for real life situations to practice empathyE.Talk to kids about emotional needsF.Meet emotional needsG.Play games
