Stubborn Children
Are you a parent? How many kids do you have? Are they stubborn? Children reflect many personality traits that are different from each other. They are usually inherited from mother or father. Traits are not linked to gender. They are commonly found in both. Many of the children are stubborn, many are calm and many are naughty but we still see some of them quiet. Well, our work here is to identify stubborn children and know all about them.
Personality Traits of Stubborn Children:

- Will act like the queen or king of the house.
- Attention seeker trait is the most common one and found on its peak.
- These children want to get the dominance.
- They are not naughty. They don’t disturb the house that much but are bossy.
Causes of Stubbornness:
- Genetics. The Child might get the stubbornness from inheritance. His mother or father might be like this in their childhood or any other from the ancestors.
- Love and Attention deficiency.
- 24 hours yelling of parents.
- Environmental factors. Sometimes the children act stubborn because of peer influence. They force the parents to get them the thing that their friends have.
Parenting Styles:
-
Never say ‘NO’
Sometimes the parents act more stubborn than the child. They should not always say no to them. They should let them do what they want to do. 24/7 restrictions also increase risk of stubbornness.
-
Give Love and Attention
Give your child the required attention. This can reduce the risk of getting stubborn trait. Give them your time, listen to their stories and play with them.
-
Respect their needs
Respecting your child’s needs every time, should be your priority. Yes, there are some needs that can’t be fulfil but there should be another alternative. Another factor, you should not fulfil all the needs. In this case, you should have that power of how to divert their attention from that thing with love.
Conclusion:
First 2 years of a baby’s life are the most critical phase for Personality Development. It is not a big issue until and unless you give them your proper time and attention. Without doing this, you can never form a strong and beautiful bond with your children and can never expect their love and care for you when they grow up. Children will repeat this same thing after growing up. They also get busy with their studies and jobs that will make you feel lonely. So, if you don’t want this to go on repeat, give them your time, attention and love before it gets too late.
