5 magical ways to calm down your child! Say no to electronic gadgets!

In present time, if a child start crying, parents tend to give their child smartphone, electronic gadgets to calm down the child.

Though it may work sometimes but in the long run you're are just ruining your child's mental stability.

They start to think that electronic gadgets or smartphones are better than you and as child grows older they start disrespecting the parents.

When you are giving your child smartphone that means that you're losing your place from your children's heart.They start thinking smartphone is better alternative than you.

As a parent, you should not be evaluated like this from your child.

I've seen a lot of parents they give their smartphone to their child when they were feeding.

They become more focused on the phone than the food,most importantly from you. Smartphones becomes their new imagination world.

I feel blessed sometimes do you know why I feel so? Because when we were growing up, smartphone and gadgets were not handy.

We grow up in the midst of nature, parents love , attention and great care.In the period of nineties and early twenties this were the best times of parenting. If you are from that age I'm sure you'll feel lucky.

No I'm not blaming smartphones for ruining this generations great childhood. I'm blaming the practice of giving smartphones to children.

This a malpractice hampering children's mental and physical growth ,today's parents aren't well aware of. Children's are becoming more addicted to smartphones.

So instead of giving smartphones, what steps should be taken when calming down your child?

In my article I'll discuss the steps from my point of view and from my experiences.

1)Keep calm and never shout over your child:

Child seeks more attention than anyone. It's a simple psychological behaviour. If you read Sigmund Freud or go through the study of the stages of human development you'll know why a child seeks more attention.

On the other hand, child imitate others. If you show aggression ,your child in his later life will become more violent.

As you know that your child is seeking attention so don't overreact or try to be aggressive to your child.

You just need to keep calm than you'll see your child will calm down automatically and will start listening you.

Remember the more you react to your child, the more your child will overreact to you.

2)Share your good thoughts to your child and play games with him:

If your child is too much egoistic than first you need to let go your ego. In that case to ease your child behaviours, play any kind of fun games with him.

Your child will sink in games and eventually become clam. If you play with him, he'll become more proactive.

This will be a great help to your child's mental growth.

This will increase creativity and on the contrary he'll be busy with his games.

To feed your child playing games can be a great idea. As your child is busy ,you can easily feed. Feeding the child is the greatest challenge a parent's often face.

Let's not force him to eat his meal rather make this feeding time a great one.

3)Search for any alternative:

Whatever your child is talking about do not discourage him, listen to your child attentively first than if it logical appreciate him.

If illogical tell your child what is illogical in it.

If your child proposes you something this time don't discourage him too.

If any alternative possible show him the alternatives. Let your child chose according to his choice.

4)Tune or musical therapy:

Children's love to hear music. Calming down your child music can be a great choice.If your child start crying play some good music.

Music therapy works on adults also. Why not on children? As I've said it children's are more likely to hear music.

5)Give hug to your child

To ease someone giving hug can be a great choice. This practice works on child's too. Giving hug to touching your child, showing affection works like a ice melting. It also helps him to become mentally strong and stable.

I've a cousin, who's age is 1 year almost.

Every time I see her crying, I touch her hand softly and start talking to her, magically she stops crying.

Instead of giving smartphones to your child,give a hug or touch his hand.Your child will become mentally strong.

Here the ideas from me. I've shared my experiences. Smartphones will do nothing but ruining your child's mental and physical growth.

So from now on if you are a parent or a brother like me or you need to calm down any child you can try these methods. I can assure you,this methods will work better than the smartphones.
