Child aggression is a problem thatdisturbs a huge number of parents. And it's no accident - in recent years, more and more children have shown an excessive amount of aggression, which significantly complicates the process of social adaptation of the child in society. And in order for this process to proceed as smoothly as possible, parents should be aware of the causes that provoke child aggression, as well as how to deal with it. In order to understand the causes of child aggression and methods of combating it, it is necessary to know and prehistory - that is, all the features of child psychology from the very birth of the child. This is exactly what will be discussed in this article. The newly born baby is only able to experience two strong emotions: displeasure with something or pleasure. So, for example, if the baby does not experience any pain, does not feel hungry, and his diapers are dry, he shows only pleasure and positive emotions. These emotions, he can express - depending on his age - a calm sleep, serene walking or a smile. Otherwise, if the crumb experiences any discomfort, no matter what he is caused, he will not slow down very violently his discontent - he will kick legs, get out of your hands or just start to be very capricious and cry loudly. However, as the child grows, his protest actions begin to change, becoming more complex. The protest at the crumb begins to manifest through destructive actions, which he directs either to those people who, in his opinion, offended him, or to some dear things for these people. Very often young parents who first encounter such aggressive behavior of the child are very much afraid, assuming the worst - the presence of their child any serious problems with the psyche and even deviant behavior. Surely every child psychologist and psychotherapist can tell a lot of cases when to them on a reception to death frightened young parents brought hardly learned to go and talk crumbs, complaining about supposedly unmotivated aggression. However, this is far from the case - after all, aggression to any extent is inherent in absolutely any person. Psychologists explain this phenomenon by the fact that aggression is originally instinctive behavior, which is necessary for the individual (in this case we are talking about a person) to survive in the environment. In other words, aggression is one of the components of the most basic instinct of any living being - the instinct of self-preservation. However, it goes without saying that man differs from animals precisely by the ability to reason intelligently. And as the child grows and develops, he will gradually learn to translate his instinctive aggressive beginnings into those forms of expression that are acceptable in society. Speaking in the language of psychologists, a person, as he grows up, socializes aggressive initiatives. Children's aggression should disappear almost completely. In some cases, alas, a person, even if grown up, does not acquire the skills of self-control over his aggression. As a result, it is extremely difficult for such a person to live in a society of people. And in particularly serious cases, aggressive behavior can become so unmanageable that, in the end, an adult will either be in a psychiatric hospital, or even worse - in places not so remote. Agree, a very sad prospect ... That's why the important paramount task of all parents without exception is teaching the child to control his thoughts, feelings and behavior. However, very many parents go to this goal in a not quite correct way, just trying to suppress the aggression of the child. However, this can not be done in any case, since aggression is extremely necessary for the development of a person's quality. And in the event that parents suppress these negative emotions of the child, there is a very high risk that the resulting aggressive impulses, without finding an outlet, will appeal to the child himself - so-called psychologists will develop autoaggression. And as a result the child can cause very significant harm to himself. And there, even before the development of psychosomatic disorders, it is within reach. That is why the main thing parents should teach their child is to control their aggressive emotions, splashing them in a safe way. How can you effectively and safely defend your interests and rights, as well as protect yourself from the possible dangers of the outside world by a socially safe method without harming yourself, yourself or the people around you. In order to successfully cope with this task, parents must thoroughly understand all the issues related to the main reasons for the development of aggressive forms of behavior. Child psychologists distinguish three groups of causes, which become the main causes of the child's destructive behavior: ... Read More
