Reason 1: attract the attention of adults.
Children of this age are self-centered. In his mind, the world exists for him. He can't stand his parents' inattention to himself. So when parents are chatting with friends on the phone, he reminds parents of his existence by interrupting, so as to attract their attention.
Countermeasures: Let children get attention. When interacting with others, parents should solemnly introduce their children to others, no matter how young they are. This can make children feel that they are very important and have not been ignored. In addition, if conditions permit, you can ask your family or nanny to help look after the children.
Reason 2: Children are interested in what they are talking about.
With the growth of age, children become more and more curious about the things around them. When his mother's conversation with the guests arouses his curiosity, children will ask some related questions, hoping to get answers, which is the most common way for them to understand the world around them.
Countermeasures: Give children the opportunity to participate in the conversation. If the content interrupted by children is related to the topic that adults are talking about, try to integrate into the conversation of adults, guide children to think and learn to communicate with others; When you talk to guests about something that children don't understand, you can take some time to explain it to your children. Rudely refusing children to participate in the conversation will only make children treat others in the same way.
Countermeasures: divert children's attention. First, arrange your child's activities so that he has something to do, such as watching interesting animation programs, preparing some beautiful picture books for your child, giving him some toys that can attract attention, or guiding your child to play virtual games such as chatting with others and making phone calls.
Reason four: I didn't learn to wait.
Countermeasures: teach children to learn to wait. Try to let him know that one person can't continue until he has finished. Try to guide children to think from another angle and understand the feelings of others. For example, when he is most excited, he can't bear to interrupt your own business. At this time, you can tell him: Look, if you keep interrupting when others are talking, others will be unbearable. Let the children know the bad feelings that interrupting brings to others.
At the beginning, even if you make all kinds of efforts, you may not see obvious results. Don't be discouraged. Patience is important to you and your children.
Attachment: A small way to deal with children who love to interrupt.
1. Pay attention to and respect children's opinions.
Regardless of whether the children's opinions are reasonable or not, parents should attach importance to and respect them. If the child's ideas are all wrong, don't laugh at him or scold him, but tell him clearly where he is wrong. This is conducive to cultivating children's honest, frank and cheerful personality, at the same time, it is also conducive to satisfying children's thirst for knowledge, enriching children's life experience, expanding children's knowledge, and also exercising children's thinking ability and ability to handle affairs.
2. Teach children some speaking skills.
Children are often young and lack life experience and the ability to distinguish right from wrong, so sometimes they will say whatever comes to mind regardless of occasion, time and place. At this time, instead of blaming the child, it is better to teach the child some speaking skills. If you tell your children that if you want to join other people's conversation, you must first listen to the conversation and then try to explain your thoughts accurately and completely. Don't be loud and aggressive when interrupting others. If the child interrupts at an inappropriate time, parents may wish to discuss with the child, for example, can they wait until mom and aunt have finished? Let children know that they can only interrupt when others stop talking or finish.
Parents should also pay attention to their words and deeds.
Some parents often interrupt their children unscrupulously and even rudely shut them up when they are not together. Some couples can't respect each other and listen patiently to each other's conversations. Instead, they say their own reasons and even quarrel loudly. These behaviors are teaching children the wrong way to speak and communicate.
Encourage children to express their views and wishes.
Learning the skills of expressing one's thoughts in time and properly is an essential lesson in interpersonal communication. Therefore, a cheerful parent, no matter what to teach their children face to face or what to discuss between adults, should give their children a chance to interrupt and encourage them to speak their minds boldly, so that children will learn to express themselves, convince each other and reach a consensus. Conclusion: There is a custom in China since ancient times: it is impolite for adults to talk, children to listen and children to interrupt.
