Probably, in every family there is such an unpleasant phenomenon as obscene words. Once your child brings from a kindergarten or, having heard a bad word on the street, and begins to repeat it endlessly. How to react in this case? First of all, forget about a children’s store with toys. Scold or not pay attention to obscene abuse?
Previously, for this they beat children on their lips, hoping that this will serve them as a lesson. And most amazing, such measures really helped. But at present, in our modern world, such methods of punishment are considered non -demagogy.
Why does children attract poor expressions?
Children who have only learned to talk in every possible way try to express their thoughts in words. For them, every new word is like a toy. Hearing on the street, on the playground a bad word, he begins to repeat, not understanding his meaning. Having consumed these curses once or twice, he safely forgets about him.
If the baby said a swearing word, and then, when you accidentally heard, try not to focus on this and do not get angry. Just pretend that you have not heard anything. If you scold the child for this, then he will probably remember him and will repeat from time to time, thereby checking his parents for strength.
The situation is absolutely different when your child consciously begins his older brother or sister to call abnormal, and mom-stupid. This time he understands that the word is not good and is specially expressed so. In this case, it is necessary to strictly explain to the baby that in your family it is not customary to express himself like this. But do not punish him. You just need to try to explain that it is bad to say so and that parents do not do that.
Children from the age of three may ask you the meaning of this or that curse. Answer that you do not know such a word and try to captivate the child with something, some exciting game.
Older children can begin to scold consciously, trying to imitate adults or peers. But they can just to attract attention. Try to have a conversation, teach your child to express your thoughts with decent expressions without curses. During this conversation, try to remain calm so that the child does not remember your reaction, otherwise he will resort to swearing from time to time to achieve his.
With teenage children, the situation is more complicated. They already do not give a damn about the opinion of their parents. Youth slang has always existed, and will remain an attribute of youth fashion. Therefore, it is better for you to leave your child alone, even if his manner of behavior annoys you.
