Many parents resort to various prohibitions in an attempt to make their child's life safe.

However, there are things that children should not be forbidden to do.

After all, some prohibitions may, on the contrary, be harmful for children.

Expression of emotions

Sometimes parents angrily try to calm their children down if they are being too loud or crying.

As a result, they start arguing instead of understanding the situation and the reasons for the child’s behavior.

But you shouldn't forbid children to express emotions. Their nervous system is immature. And therefore they have no other ways to relieve tension.

Active movement

It is difficult for children to sit still for a long time. They are constantly running, jumping and getting dirty.

And we must understand that this is an element of the physical and emotional development of children.

Therefore, it is enough to simply explain the rules of behavior to the child, rather than imposing strict prohibitions.

Food on a plate

Sometimes parents, wanting the best for their child, convince him that he needs to finish his meal. However, such actions turn out to be harmful.

Firstly, they can cause psychological harm. Secondly, they can form bad eating habits in the child.

Therefore, it is worth allowing the child to control the feeling of satiety himself.

Lots of questions

Sometimes children can ask a huge number of questions. And adults do not always want to answer them.

But we must take into account that curiosity is a good quality.

And so children expand their horizons and learn about the world around them.

Demonstration of independence

Children often want to do many things on their own.

But they can cope with this quite slowly, and therefore sometimes adults, instead of waiting, try to do everything for the child.

However, this is a gross mistake. The child can simply be helped, but he must do all the actions himself.

Previously, we talked about how to find out what people really think about you.
