Webinar on How to say no to a child and deal with aggression

Has the session started?

Hi

So, my daughter is 5+ years old and she is very prone to throwing tantrums at the drop of a hat. She always wants to get her way and any kind of resistance from elders results in screaming, crying, etc. I would like to get your expert views on how to handle such situations

Anything and everything that doesnt suit her fancy, it could be when we ask her to finish her homework and she doesnt want to study, or wants to watch TV for long hours, or when we stop her from doing some dangerous stuff (like cutting veggies with a sharp knife or lighting the matches), or even waking up in the morning, or going to bed at night.... the list is endless....

The timing varies, sometimes it lasts for about 10 minutes, sometimes it goes on and on....

Hello Dr Ann

I have a 3 year old daughter. She is normal, happy child. Likes to mix with people and goes to a playschool. What kind of games/activities can I give her to play at home that will boost her mental abilities

Yes, I understand,I have tried to prepare a routine for her, which we try to follow... but most of the time things get out of hand... do you think it advisable to go for parent child counselling sessions?

My child is 7months and recently I have noticed that she would literally scream out, if she needs something or if something is taken away from her. Is this the age when child develops aggression or tempers?

Have tried everything, but often things get out of control...

She would sometimes also make a fist with that behaviour... is that normal?

Whats the best way to handle this temper tantrum at this age?

While I am giving food to my baby, it happens sometimes that she would simply refuse for it. Is there a particular way to handle this.. No?

Also, as both me and my husband are working, she is generally playing with the maid. now that she is growing older, I feel the maid can't stimulate her enough and she wants me and my husband only to play. how can I get her to play on her own and not want us around all the time

Hi Dr Ann, I have a 5 year old son me and my husband both are working recently i have observed my son has become very possessive about his stuff how should i teach him the value of sharing. please suggest

Maybe this is out of the box question, I mean the topic. But how late can we give food to the baby at night. She usually sleeps by 9:30? and for how long should we not give food after the bath?

Also, Dr Ann, sometimes when she doesn't listen to me, I threaten her with punishment (locking her in a room). I don't feel good about it but it is effective. do you think it is ok to deal with children like this?

Thank you Dr Ann, another question i would like to ask how to make my child assertive as he gets bullied in park very often.

Thanks Dr Ann.... just one more thing.. i sometimes feel all this scolding has resulted in making my daughter afraid of me in some situtions... as in if she is not eating her food and I strictly tell her, eat it or mumma will get angry, she will look at me a little scared but obey.. is it my guilt? what can I do to make her not scared of me.

giving you a situation if my son is on slide and some parent or child will ask him to get off he will gets off. What can i tell him to say or do in that situation.

Thankyou Dr Ann for your kind words... also is it too early to introduce her to alphabets. she is 3. I have seen children around her reciting the entire alphabets, months of years, weekdays... she doesn't know this yet. is it normal.

Thank you Dr. Ann for your expert advice:)

Thank you for help Dr Ann :)
