Natural Consequences
"Don't Try This At Home"
I went on this blog and saw an interesting post about “Natural Consequences”. I left my five cents there about my problem I have with my 15-year-old boy. From a gifted child he became so unmotivated that is failing now. I am trying everything to help him and nothing is working. Instead, it’s making matters worse. My husband is believes in letting him fail as a natural consequences but I don’t think that this would be the right approach.
Why kids throw a fit?
When kids can’t solve their problem they get agitated feeling hopeless, and the only thing they can figure out in a respond is to throw a fit. Mainly because it’s working. When a child throw a temper tantrums is hard to ignore them, so in respond we come and comfort them or give into their demands for a peace sake. Wrong!
Live the room and ignore them, unless they can hurt themselves. They don’t like to throw a fit if they have no audience.
