What If My Child Just Doesn't Care About Consequences - kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6ackHiOlruthdE

I have come from a place where loving, caring parenting was non existent! Unfortunately I have absorbed a lot of my parents disengaged, self centered style of parenting and it devastates me constantly. My beautiful kids are the most precious thing to me in the world so thank you for giving me the tools to work & be the dad they deserve!

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

It is all about having the skills, Scott Bateman, and you can learn these. You can change the cycle.

[@sfree322]

Your comment hit me like an emotional ton of bricks! Your acknowledgment of where you are and your goal of where you want to be shows your humility and your strong desire for change. Also, don’t be shy about telling your kids that you’re sorry and you’re really trying to do better; it shows them you care. I wish you and your family all the happiness you deserve!

[@miffedcuttlefish6139]

Just make sure to remind your kids that the outside world is not going to owe them the same kindness, and compassion your household will afford them. And when they go out and find that out, they'll feel like they should be entitled to it. And that is hardly ever the case. 😉 It's a joy to know there are people who take on parenting as a chance for self improvement also. Good luck, and YOU CAN DO IT!

[@cjm537]

I hear you Scott 🙋🏻‍♂️ Parenting is challenging & it's easy to repeat our parents' style. I believe when you or any parent recognize that then you are way ahead & can make the change 🦸‍♂️ Parenting is challenging yet so important 💗 I'm learning every day with my child too 🕵️‍♂️🦸‍♂️ God Bless 👼🙏✝️💗

I'm there with you. Im struggling alot as a parent to my 5 year old. I also didn't have loving parenting and as result have a lot of anger myself.

[@amiensarabellis8391]

Emotions are so contagious. One has to consciously and deliberately determine not catch the other person's anger. A very challenging thing to do!!! So adults need to humbly work on their own emotional intelligence.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Amiens Arabellis, so true. If we each worked on our emotional intelligence, the next generation would benefit so much (and so would we).

I find these talks so useful, both for my daughter (now a teenager) and for the children I work with (I am a teaching assistant working with 8-10 year olds, with a special interest in looking after children's emotional wellbeing). I found when my daughter was three or four, she would get incredibly angry about certain things, such as having to stay home if she was ill (she loved school and learning). I would let her have a shout and a stomp, leave it a while and then later on ask her about what happened, and we would talk it through. Sometimes I would get a doll or teddy to have a tantrum and then we would talk to the toy in a calm way about what what was going on. Then next time we saw a "storm" on the horizon (eg missing school or not being able to do something) we could pre-empt the situation before it got to meltdown. Thanks, Paul - all so helpful.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

PHEONIX, thank you. I love that you are getting more information and ideas on how to help her.

[@samanthavanhees793]

Our daughter is almost 3, and she is very strong-willed and she is verbally strong. She has had a period of throwing tantrums, yelling, even slapping me. It was better and I was so happy about that, since I'm dealing with anxiety and a depression myself. But since she started to go to school, it became worse again. She even yells "No", "go away" or "leave me alone" and doesn't want her dad. I'm struggling, it is so so hard. Sometimes I just want to scream, pull at my own hair, hurt myself,.. I'm all about communication and expressing feelings, but she seems to get angry about everything and is just acting out. I feel defeated, I can't handle it any more and feel awful. Yesterday it got really bad, and afterwards we talked about it. And she reacted with: but I can't help it..

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Samantha Vanhess, she needs to see you handling your problems and you can share appropriately how something has upset you and how you are handling the problem. Consider some counseling to help you sort these feelings and come up with some positive ways to deal with your daughter.

[@balshhh8233]

I have an 11 year old sister who immediately gets mad when something goes wrong or does not get what she wants. She barely listens to us and we often end up in a yelling contest. Sometimes she'll break stuff also. I know she can change but I don't know how to start helping her, since we're not really close because we used to fight everyday before which is wrong. But believe me, she's very intelligent and does well in School. She's a varsity player also. But her attitude when not in School is soo different, when we don't follow her she'll get mad. I always try to keep my composure and managed to reduce those yelling moments, but she still barely listens to us. :(

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Defgha, I answered in the other comment left. Good luck.

[@lefrinj]

Re: your guidance on the punching a pillow - I've heard another good piece of advice from Martin Kirk, a really good positive parenting guy who used to foster a lot of ADHD kids... and he'd always say let's do something active like throw a football. Whenever he was worked up himself he'd just do some pushups and the kids would associate activity with getting control of your anger - but not doing something directly angry with it, just getting it out of you another way.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Dev Lunsford, many ADHD kids really need physical work and that that is why pushups and other similar activities work. Many smart teachers and therapists start with a physical activity and transition to classwork. Thank you for commenting.

This is the best video about this topic, I have ever seen. The problem is: I do all this things by intuition, and have done them for years, but I don't know, what to do, to help my son to regulate his feelings. If he feels anger, it can takes him hours to calm down. He is very sensitive and he seems to feel every emotion with an intensity, I can not imagine and he is unable to let go of his anger. So , yes, all this tips are pure gold, in the situation, when your child is feeling anger, but it doesn't solve the problem.

I wish I would have found your videos a few years ago and learned all this stuff as you're absolutely amazing. Like I have taken a ton of courses on parenting children with ADHD and anger management and learned a lot but the way you explain things it is a lot simpler to understand and it is explained a lot better so far. As I have a son who is 13 in a few weeks and a daughter who will be 11 but acts like a 18yr old in behaviors like being little miss mom I joke around about when people ask me what she is like. She is extremely mature for her age and so is my oldest son but he does have anger issues that we have been working on. And I have a heck of a time to get them to even go upstairs to grab me something without them demanding $5 as they get paid from my parents when they are they to pick something up off the floor and no matter how many times I tell my parents as a single mother that was force to retire due to an injury preventing me from being able to work it is something I can't do and that they need to set it as something as you get a sticker or so for doing these chores and when you get this many you get this or that. And my parents will agree and then keep doing what they have been doing.

Pray for his salvation and spiritual maturity and pray every day. Don't give up God does answer prayer even if it just takes time. We must honor and respect our God for His discipline is stern. I layed my hand on my spouse's shoulder and said to him, "Be born again in the name of Jesus." And he has been changed by God's grace ever since. He is so much more positive now, he isn't so crazy angry anymore. I know people who've been changed through water baptism also. I heard the right way to baptize is in Jesus' name not in the name of the father , son and holy spirit. I know someone , he was on the very verge of suicide , overwhelmed with anger, depression and addiction. He cried out , "God save me!" And God heard him and changed him that very moment. God made him a peaceful , joyful person , no more over angery addiction driven person from that day forward. Also let me share with you that my step sister was hyperactive at age 3 so my dad removed all sugar from her diet and made sure no one was letting her have caffeine. He only fed her meat and veggies no sweet potatoes and a few crackers now and then for snack. He saw a huge difference the same day, she was calm and stayed seated in back seat of car , took healthy naps. He didn't have to put her on prescription meds , he said prescriptions aren't good they cause more deaths cuz they're too strong or wrongly made medicines. I believe him cuz I have always hated their side affects.

[@user-ng8zf6wy7q]

@pop eye I agree with you. There has been a lack of God for a while and now we're paying the price. I have raised my kids (4) with the fear of God and tried to do my best being a good role model & providing a healthy kid friendly environment. These days many parents have no filters for their kids and let them hear, watch adult movies & play sick violent games. And unfortunately there are those that have been traumatized ..... I deal with children that are placed in an alternative school program w/1yr behind me. Even though I am the stern type, the general approach is the opposite. I dont agree with it entirely but its protocol. Today we were left scratching our heads again trying to figure out what will work for an extremely explosive 6yr old.

[@kristen4050]

For my toddler ( recently turned 2) when he gets upset with something. He often gets frustrated and starts yelling and throws himself to the ground or something to that magnitude. When he starts to get upset my first words are slow down and breathe. Not in a condescending way, but I soften my tone and say ssllloow ddoowwnn..bbrreeaathe (partly reminding myself to slow down and not act quickly out of my frustration). I follow up with offering opens arms and saying "Use your words". I know he could have trouble articulating some words so I'll also ask him "What were you trying to do" or I'll plainly give him the words he needs for that situation. I repeat what he told me back to him to show him I unserstand. Like "you were trying to stack your blocks, but they kept falling down. That made you frustrated". Once his feelings are validated and we understand each other he calms down fairly quickly. Depending on the situation and where we are (like at the grandparents house). Sometimes if he starts throwing a fit I'll ask him if we need to go to the next room to calm down (I like to give him that privacy) He'll often say "no". Then I'll ask him if he can calm down by himself and he'll say "yes" and settle down. Sometimes we still need to go to the next room to calm down. I'm trying to give him a methodology to getting upset and to give him the words he needs to express himself. Part of the time it seems like they get the most upset when no one can understand what they are trying to convey. I think that can also leave them feeling lonely and maybe a little ostracized at times when they can't communicate properly.

I thought I would never get through it.

He has been involved in speech therapy for 3 years, but still struggles and with the diagnosis of Apraxia, probably always will. He lashes out in anger, hitting and kicking anyone and anything in his path. He lives in a small area with very little help available. My daughter is beside herself and I don’t know how to help. I live over 20 hours from them. They are military and have frequent moves. I’d take any advice anyone wants to give!

Always remember: Kids + sugar/caffeine = great chances of hyperactive / behavioral disorder My step sister had hyperactive / behavioral disorder at age 3 so my dad removed sugar from her diet. He saw a huge difference right away in the first couple days. It ended her disorders. Also be sure to pray for your kids' salvation and spiritual maturity every day. It should lessen the need to restrict their diet so much as they get older. It should also lessen the need for boot camp when they become teenagers.

Tomorrow i will call my contact for help. My son is 6 y often a very fine guy and in some developmental phases, like now, it seems close to every emotion make him break mentally down. These days. The pictures from the war, in public places like bombarded houses are too much for him And then attacks me. He can't controll his body anymore when anger comes up. He is full of joy and thinking i can't wait, have to wait.... Attack. He feels frustrated....Attack. Someone reminds him of a rule, he comes to me, attack. He also said he does it to punish me. I follow through in what i say. I am mostly parenting positive and to be honest, on the brink of burnout. As a single parent with such an intense Charakter in the child, it sometimes isn't possible to stay calm. And somehow he gets this input. That he could use this to get what he wants. He throws a massive Tantrum because i don't allow something, he asks again and again, the whole day is tinted in that question, my answer stays the same and his reaction gets stronger every time. He shows with actions instead of words his experiences of the day in kindergarten. Of course i tell him we use words but he don't care. He is empty in the afternoon. The evenings are hard. For me, to live only with this human under our roof, this behaviour is out of proportion. He hits and kicks, bites and scratches in purpose to hurt. Make someone bleeding or crying then saying you deserve it. My observation when there isn't the room to separate him to cool down, like Infront of the kindergarten. Or in public transport, either he is hurting me or i stop him, contain him physically, then he is fighting against that and is hurting himself. And me. I need to learn this ad a tool. To use it safe. It's difficult to build and remain a loving connection when someone you have to live with is behaving that reactive. If it where not my kid. I wouldn't have someone, behaving like that near me, in my life. I would have send this person away. I know this sure will pass, will get better. But first i can't allow someone to treat me disrespectfull, i respect myself. Second, this is for sure a great learning opportunity. Don't let it pass by. For me to stay calm, to give my body the safety even if someone is acting out. For him, to learn he is safe with his emotions here and able to regulate them so he don't have to feel ashamed after an outburst. For the time until then he can learn That repair is always possible.

He actually provokes me and picks at my nerves till I’m frustrated and angry too.

Have the child assessed for Temporal Lobe ADD. Symptoms: Core symptoms of Classic ADD, as well as learning, memory, and behavioral problems, such as quick anger, aggression, and mild paranoia. Cause: Abnormalities in the temporal lobe; decreased activity in prefrontal cortex. Treatment: Amino acid GABA (gamma-aminobutryic acid) to calm neural activity and inhibit nerve cells from over-firing or firing erratically; magnesium to help with anxiety and irritability; anti-convulsant medications to help with mood stability; gingko or vinpocetine to help with learning and memory problems.

You are amazing! Love all your videos and you make so much sense and are so so on point. I understand that in the beginning of implementing your techniques it feels like it won’t work but we have to stop and think how long did it take my child to get to this point. Well it will take time for you and him to get this corrected as well.

I thank god and your videos that I have yet to resort to restraining. The boys now live with me and things are getting so much better. At times I thought I would not be able to help them but like you say, the weather will pass. True! God bless you and thank you!

[@strawberryme08]

Emotions store in the body you need to use your body to release that emotion. But you run into trouble when physical aggression is used as a reaction instead of an intentional tool of release work. The words part creates connection which is also needed. It’s important to also recognize what we are feeling and why.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Tina M Fam, I agree, get in touch with what you are feeling. I always say we are never wrong about what we feel. There is a reason we are feeling it. We choose our actions.

[@k.ambrosio602]

Great tips. I have zero clue what’s going on with my 7 y/o son. I try these modeling behaviors at home and he does okay. But it seems the aggression and anger (stemming from frustrations) are coming out at school and I’m not there to have that one on one with him. It seems like he goes from 0-10. When he gets pulled aside he calms down, but it’s like he doesn’t have that moment where he pauses and thinks how to react, he just reacts. 😔 it’s been going on for while (since he was in pre-k) and it seems to be getting worse. Talk about feeling like a huge parent failure.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

K. Ambrosio, you aren't a failure. Maybe you could share with those at school what you have done. A team approach could help him.

[@brightpage1020]

Toddlers or younger kids you can be like “Ouch that hurts me!” Then put them down in a crib or play yard, and leave the room for 1-3 minutes. Or “ooh! That’s too loud for my ears. It hurts them.” Then, the same. Within a few set down and leaving the rooms, the child picks up on the pattern.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Good point.

[@brightpage1020]

My 6 y/o with very mild high functioning autistic symptoms learned before preschool not to harm others by hitting, biting, etc. But recently has been kicking, hitting, scratching any harm available to him whenever we do something as tell him a simple “no” or “not right now” when he wants something. Not to mention using bad language and yelling things like “I’m gonna punch your breast!” At least he knows the right word for body parts. I have no idea where he gets this stuff but he goes from 0-60 in a heartbeat. If I catch it right away and don’t engage but redirect, he can calm down quickly, but if I address it like assigning a time out or time in, or address him directly about it he continues to go ballistic and it gets worse turning into a power struggle. This advice is so helpful.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

Glad it is helpful. With your son being autistic the redirection might be a better way to go about it.

[@consciousness.creates.miracles]

I was abused mentally, physically and emotionally up to the age of 19. I tried to protect my son from what I'd been through and really tried to be patient and understanding whilst he was growing up. He was the sweetest, most caring, compassionate child. I encouraged him to express all emotions because I was taught to suppress mine. Unfortunately my partner is emotionally unavailable and had me suppressing my emotions and rejected our son when he would cry. He was very dismissive. This has really affected our son. During the pandemic i was triggered by my childhood trauma. I was left to look after our son on my own as my husband walked away from us being unable to deal with what I was going through this. I found myself full of anger. I could hear my parents voice in my head as I communicated with my son. I knew it was wrong but couldn't stop myself. My son is now full of anger. He cannot control his emotions at all even in situations like me saying "you can't watch TV later, let's do this first and then you can watch TV". He wants what he wants. There are no alternatives. I'm losing myself all over trying to help but nothings working. I'm drowning in guilt now. I use the right words etc but he's not listening. He only knows he's hurt. I did wrong by saying no.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

I hope you can get some help for your son and you through either counseling or coaching.

[@mymommysjournal2737]

@I Love The Colour Pink Talking to my child has been the pillar to building a respectful bond. I don't see my child as a my property or a correction job for everything that they do that I don't like. My job is to keep my kids safe, healthy and living respectfully amongst others. For every child behaviour there is a reason. I now listen to my kids before I go and punish without understanding. Our lives is much better and peaceful. Truly changed and I can't thank enough channels like this and the studies of experts in child psychology, to make that positive change. If you study child development you'll understand that majority of punishment hinders a child because a lot of things we see as bad behaviour is actually a developmental factor. I started using natural consequences and I never seen my kids as bad or any other kids as bad. In fact since changing my ways and not using naughty step and that stuff, my kids have blossomed, confident and calm. If they do something that I think it's not ok, which is normal for a kid, they don't go hide because they are scared of mommy shouting and naughty step. They started telling me things, apologise and correct themselves alone, a lot of times it doesn't get even to that point that they "misbehave" anymore, because they know I'm listening to them and I respect them as human beings. If you listen to them they will.listen to you. Respect is not earned by scaring someone with our reaction or consequence. Fear doesn't bring respect but distance. Thank you for your judgement but my kids never gave me any problems in school or outside actually they are the top in their class and they have been praised time again for their reliability and mature behaviour. Very blessed that the teachers at school also back me up on not punishing but using positive communication and natural consequences. You really don't need to be shouting and hitting to get the kid to do what you want. You teach them that to get what they want in turn they have to be aggressive and violent to others too because if others don't listen to them, just as they don't listen to us it's ok to shout, hit, threaten and humiliate. But to each their own. I suggest you watching more videos it can be very therapeutic and healing. Thank you again @LiveOnPurposeTv

How do you handle temper tantrums in public? My 3 year old, yesterday actually, decided to have a temper tantrum in the middle of a crowded store while we were standing in line. She started hitting me, so I held her hands to stop her. Then she started kicking, not just me, but the other people in line. She gets angry alot and I struggle with how to handle it.

[@LiveOnPurposeTV]

When I had little children, I would remove them from the store and put them in the car until they settled down. I would stand outside the car and let them cry. This didn't happen with all my children, but it worked. The child learned how to behave in the store. Set the expectations before you enter. It may mess up your day a bit, but you are raising children for life. Hang in there, aysia floyd.

Live On Purpose TV this worked with my toddler!! Thankyou !!

[@Handleitt1]

It’s funny how we put ourselves in time out with our kids, but it works and shows how much we support our beliefs by being there in timeout by their side.

[@liveforchrist1474]

Always remember: Kids + sugar/caffeine = evil hell My step sister had hyperactive/behavioral disorder at age 3 so my dad removed sugar from her diet and he saw a huge difference in the first couple of days. It ended her disorders so he kept sugar out of her diet. He fed her meats, veggies and a few crackers or very low sugar cereals once in a while for snacks. Very low sugar berries. Right now start praying for your kids' salvation and spiritual maturity every day. God tells us to pray in Jesus' name. Pray like: "God please give my kids salvation and spiritual maturity, I pray in the name of Jesus, amen." Praying this every day should reduce the need to restrict their sugar intake so much as they get older. It should also greatly reduce the need for boot camp when they become teenagers. Let me tell you that one day I layed my hand on my spouse's shoulder and said to him, "Be born again in the name of Jesus." And he has been changed by God's grace ever since. He is so much more positive now, so much less angry.

[@liveforchrist1474]

Also I know someone who was delivered from smoking and alcohol addiction through water baptism. It changed him forever more also. I heard it is wrong to baptize in the name of the father , son and holy spirit. The right way to baptize is in Jesus' name. I know someone, he was on the very verge of suicide, overwhelmed with depression, anger and addiction he uttered a prayer "God save me." to a God he wasn't even sure existed. Well God heard him, revealed Himself to him and changed him that very moment. Not lost in despair anymore, he is a new person to this day, full of peace and joy of the Lord ever since. I hope this I talked about helps you somehow and if you need it in the future. God's love n blessings! Good luck!
