Guide children to consider other people's feelings: When children are selfish, parents can guide children to consider other people's feelings, for example, ask children, "How would you feel if your best friend did such a thing to you?" This can help children understand the feelings of others.
Encourage children to share and help others: Parents can encourage children to share their own things and help others, such as participating in community volunteer activities or helping classmates at school. This can help children develop awareness and behavior of caring for others.
Establish clear rules and reward mechanisms: Parents can establish clear rules and reward mechanisms, such as encouraging children to help with housework at home, or participating in community service activities at school, and giving appropriate rewards and affirmation.
Give children some emotional adjustment skills: Children may not have mastered emotional adjustment skills, so parents can teach them some methods, such as taking a deep breath, counting or finding a quiet place to think calmly.
Lead by example: Parents should be role models for their children, showing how to care about others and avoid selfish behavior. In the family, we should show concern and respect for each other, so that children can see how parents care about each other.
In short, it takes time and patience to educate children to care about others and avoid selfish behavior. Parents can guide their children to consider other people's feelings, encourage them to share and help others, establish clear rules and reward mechanisms, give them some emotional adjustment skills and set an example. At the same time, we should carry out personalized education according to children's personality and needs, and give children some time and space to discover their hobbies.
