When children show cruelty to small animals, parents don't have to worry too much, let alone worry that their children will become vicious people when they grow up, but they can't turn a blind eye. Parents should give their children more guidance and education, and then the children will gradually develop in a kind and healthy direction. Try the following methods.

1,

Find out why children abuse small animals.

. The so-called "suit the right medicine", when parents find that their children have a tendency to abuse small animals, they must keep calm and never break into a furious rage and sharply reprimand their children. Instead, they should find out the reason first. Only by finding out the reasons can we take targeted measures, achieve results in educating children, really help children correct their shortcomings, and gradually develop good moral habits of caring for small animals.

2. Don't be too hard on children.

Some children feel stressed because their parents are too hard on themselves and expect too much from themselves. Especially because they can't feel the pain of their parents' care, children vent their depressed and distressed emotions on small animals. Therefore, parents must pay more attention to communication with their children, understand their feelings and needs, and put forward appropriate requirements and expectations for their children according to their actual level. When a child makes a mistake, parents must keep calm and give priority to careful persuasion and patient persuasion, instead of simple criticism and scolding, and they should not give hard education to their children with whips and fists at every turn. This will not solve the problem, but will only make the child's abusive tendency more and more serious.

3. Tell children more about the benefits of small animals to human beings.

. Some children don't understand small animals and treat cruelty to small animals as a pleasure. They are ignorant rather than cruel. Faced with such children, parents should take more time to tell their children about the benefits of small animals to human beings, tell their children about the cuteness of small animals, and even imitate some cute and fun actions and expressions of small animals to attract children and arouse their love for small animals.

4. Let children write observation articles about small animals.

. Found that their children don't like small animals, but also like to play tricks on and abuse small animals. Parents might as well try to give their children a small task, so that they can observe the eating, sleeping and playing habits of their puppies at home, and then write an observation article, so that children can gradually discover the cuteness of small animals in close contact with themselves, sprout their love for small animals, and correct their previous bad behavior of abusing small animals.

5. Give children more opportunities to contact and take care of small animals.

. Feed the children with puppies, kittens, rabbits, goldfish and other small animals at home, try to let the children take care of the small animals themselves, and let the children learn to take care of the weak life in the process of taking care of the small animals. Guide children to observe the growth, development and play process of small animals, and try to make children do a "feeding record". Take children to visit stray dog and cat shelters on holidays, guide them to gently and lovingly touch small animals, and encourage them to feed kittens and puppies. Often take children to visit the zoo, and pay attention to introducing the knowledge of related animals to children while visiting.

Guide children to love animals with their own strength.

. Parents may wish to advise their children to save pocket money, try to let them adopt zoo animals with pocket money, or encourage their children to donate pocket money to pet shelters to show their love for abandoned animals, or suggest their children donate pocket money to animal protection associations to contribute to saving endangered animals in the world.
