It is a big or small thing for parents to find out how to deal with children stealing money. When children are found stealing money, parents' first reaction is definitely not calm. However, remember to deal with it calmly and don't do anything that hurts your child because you are angry. Let's take a look at what parents should do when they find their children stealing money.
What should parents do when they find their children stealing money? 1 1. Listen to the reason.
Suppress your inner anger and let your mood calm down first. After all, the child's "stealing money" behavior has already happened, and it won't help if parents get angry again. The focus now should be on patiently listening to the children's voices. Everything happens for a reason. Since children steal money, there must be a reason for stealing.
Communicate with your child in a relatively gentle tone and wording, let him put down his fear and try to open communication channels. Only by asking the child why he stole money can he be better educated, because it is more effective to solve the problem.
Step 2 show your attitude
Tell the child sincerely and firmly that his parents don't like him stealing money, and others won't like it. If you come to collective life in the future, children with "criminal record" will be hard to be liked and accepted by everyone, and may eventually become the object of exclusion. Many children don't know their parents' attitude, so they constantly test the bottom line.
Instead of this, it is better to tell the child directly and let him understand his parents' attitude. It's no use preaching too much. Many times children care more about whether their parents like it or not. Children are willing to try to correct behaviors that parents don't like or even hate.
3. Protecting children
Even if stealing money is very wrong, parents should protect their children's self-esteem and face, and never "advertise" their children's behavior. Many parents like to expose their shortcomings, especially in front of relatives and friends, and will unconsciously tell their children about stealing money.
Although the child is young, he has a strong self-esteem and will feel embarrassed or even sad in the face of other people's comments. Even if they do something bad, children want to be protected by their parents, at least don't say anything. Only by protecting the child's self-esteem can he feel the care and respect of his parents.
Warm advice to all parents:
The reason why the child steals money shows that he has a sense of economic independence and wants to control money freely. For this, parents should give more encouragement so that children can know how to use money reasonably from an early age. So, don't punish, don't beat and scold, ask the reason.
Many children steal money because their parents are too strict, especially for boys. I always want them to understand the hardships of life, so "poor support" and strict economic control lead children to steal. Parents are advised to give their children pocket money reasonably and let him spend it alone, even if it is spent in one day.
Words and deeds have the greatest influence on children, so family atmosphere is particularly important. In life, parents should pass on good behavior habits to their children and let them understand the importance of honesty. At the same time, don't deduct children's pocket money. Snacks and toys should still be enough.
By the way, we should make rules to make children understand the seriousness of theft. Only by obeying the rules reasonably can we better protect ourselves from harm. If the child is found to have a pathological stealing mentality after repeated education, parents should take him to the doctor in time. Only through professional counseling can he be completely away from stealing.
What should parents do when they find their children stealing money? 2 1. When they find the child stealing money, don't be indiscriminate, just give it a beating first.
Some parents "love deeply and hate deeply" and find that their children are beaten for stealing money. Don't ask questions, don't communicate with children, do it first. Stealing money is wrong, no problem. However, before you do it, talk to your child and see what causes him to steal money. Perhaps, after communicating with children, you will find that maybe the problem lies with yourself.
Perhaps, children's favorite toys or other items have been mentioned to you many times before, and you have not promised; Perhaps, the baby broke one of your favorite objects at home, afraid of your criticism; Maybe ... children steal money, parents should think clearly at the first time, whether they have problems. Beating people can't solve the fundamental problem, and it may be counterproductive. As a result, the situation became more and more complicated, and there was no way to end well. Children who are often beaten are more vulnerable to violence when they grow up. Bob Ma Bao, we must consider ways and means to educate our children.
2, found that children steal money, please don't cynicism, hit the child's self-esteem.
There are also some parents who are "knife mouth and tofu heart". Never do anything to the child, but he has a bad mouth. I can always say something that hurts people inadvertently, but I still don't feel it. He doesn't know how lethal he is. A few simple words can make children lose face and dignity.
Such parents are generally highly educated. Please don't be sarcastic when you find your child stealing money, especially when there are many people. This will seriously hurt the child's self-esteem and make him lift his head in front of others. Over time, the heart can not be vented, which is easy to cause mental illness and hinder the future development of children.
3, found that children steal money, parents remember to exaggerate, easy for children to break the jar.
If you find a child stealing money, don't spread it around, for fear that everyone won't know. Not to mention looking for teachers and classmates, exaggerating and understanding the situation. Dad Ma Bao, do you know that your "bravado" has secretly labeled your children as "thieves"? Have you ever thought about how your children will behave in the future?
Your practice of "being afraid that the whole world will not know" may be to let children "enjoy" the consequences of humiliation, so as to correct it quickly and achieve the effect of education. However, Ma Bao, Bao's father, have you ever thought that this may also lead to the child's fall and injury, and the road of "thief" has become more and more fierce since then. If it leads to entering the society in the future, it will not be corrected.
Then, when children are found stealing money, how to guide them reasonably?
1, understate and observe the situation.
Even if the child is caught stealing money, it is not an earth-shattering event. Bao Dad Ma Bao, don't take it too seriously, it will bring distress to yourself and pressure to the children. However, be sure to tell the child that you already know that he stole money and can't do it again. Just tell the child the stakes of the problem, and then you can turn the page and never mention it again. Finally, slowly observe, after a long time, you will find that it seems to have never happened and the child has not committed it again.
2. Self-review and make changes.
When you find a child stealing money, it must be that the child is not enough. The pent-up demand cannot be met, and it can only be solved by "stealing". Baby Ma Bao, you must think about whether you are too strict with your children at ordinary times. Then, relax, and don't be too hard on children at ordinary times. Give some pocket money appropriately and let the children make their own decisions. You can also cultivate your child's financial quotient, make him understand that money is hard to come by and make him study harder.
On the other hand, don't always keep a straight face on children, which is not conducive to parent-child communication. Usually communicate with children more, so that children can feel the warmth of love. Research shows that children who don't lack love have fewer problems. I believe that parents' love can make children better. As long as parents always reflect on what they have done, I believe that children will not be bad.
