5 surprising reasons why children disobey their parents
No parent wants their child to disobey them, but there are reasons why your child doesn't follow adults' orders that you should thoroughly investigate to find the right solution.
1. Curious
Children are curious and they want to know what is behind it, what is the reason, who did it and they themselves can do it... Such questions are in the mind of children day by day as they grow up. If you ask your child not to do something, they will be curious to know what will happen if they continue to do it. Children even like to see where your limits are.
Parents cannot get angry because that can make their children more stubborn. When telling their children what they can or cannot do, parents should explain the reason behind it.
2. Confused
Every day, children will experience new things in life. They will face and decide what actions, how to behave, what is important, what is less important... Your child will even distinguish the difference between rules while reasoning about emotions and making decisions. Children will be confused while deciding whether their parents' requests are right or wrong. Therefore, they may tend to disobey their parents.
3. Difficult to please
Introducing new things to your child is not easy. When they are young, they tend to be picky. Especially when it comes to clothes, games, food and friends, they will express their choices and opinions clearly. Personal identity and personal feelings are important to children, they tend to do things their own way.
If parents have opinions that do not coincide with their children's thinking, the children may not obey or listen.
4. Likes attention
Children love attention. They want people to look at them or talk to them. They may disobey you and do things you don't want them to do, but you may need to explain clearly why they are not allowed.
5. Due to emotions
There are times when children do not want to listen to you because they are sad and want to do things that make them happier, or even want to do something that will make their parents angry. This is a really unacceptable reason for disobedience but you can face this when raising children. Of course, for parents, facing this is not easy.
