Title: Techniques to transform child's behavior
Post by: Faysal on July 08, 2011, 09:32:21 PM

Children tend to continue a behavior when it is rewarded and stop a behavior when it is ignored. Consistency in your reaction to a behavior is important because rewarding and punishing the same behavior at different times confuses your child.

When you think your child's behavior might be a problem, you have 3 choices:

1. Decide that the behavior is not a problem because it's appropriate to the child's age and stage of development.
2. Attempt to stop the behavior, either by ignoring it or by punishing it.
3. Introduce a new behavior that you prefer and reinforce it by rewarding your child.

You can choose any one to alter your child behavior.
