Becoming a parent is the most graceful thing in life. However, there are times when we have to face frustration, moreover if we have to face toddlers or teens with such a headstrong character. There are children who always fight with their brother or sister, and when we told them to say the apology; they say it with funny faces or mocking tone. Well, if we have such situation, then the best way is giving them a team work job that requires them to work together as a team. With such job, they will know how meaningful their brother or sister is and it will automatically make their relationship closer.
Some children are having a sarcastic character. Well, we don’t know where they learn how to be sarcastic, but we might have the right to the TV shows. If our children love hitting their brother, or us, then straight punishment is needed. Of course, the punishment is hot by hitting them back, but by telling them that every of their action is having its consequence and put them in a room or a corner, so they can think about what they have done.
Frustration is one thing all parents often feel. One thing we have to remember is never show our emotion or frustration when we are near our children because they will behave like us.
