Aggressive children: a very common problem
We could define the aggressiveness as an emotional response that is characterized by a feeling of dissatisfaction, Rage and desire to harm someone or something that surrounds us: it is precisely what happens with the aggressive children, a very common problem. Although it is hard to believe, these children also have these feelings. And it can hide everything accumulation of frustrations what does he do an aggressive child.
What a genius! The character of aggressive children
Aggressiveness at these ages can manifest in very different ways. One of them is the direct physical aggression. When our son hit, bite or kicks to his friends in the park because they have taken away his favorite truck, he is acting in that way.
The indirect aggressions displaced, on the other hand, are those that are manifested when our child directs his aggressiveness towards another person or object different from the one that triggered his anger. So it may be the case that we have fought him for some mischief and then start hitting his older brother because he is angry with us.
All screaming, so aggressive children behave
On other occasions, aggression appears in the form of explosive reactions. We may have spent some unimportant joke on our son and this, instead of taking it as such, has begun to kick and cry non-stop. Those tantrums They are very common in children, even the best have some once in a while. It's his way of asking us "How far can I go?"
A final way for children to express their aggressiveness is to verb form. If our son already knows how to talk, we will have checked, once in a while, that when he gets angry we answer wrong, it gives insult us, for saying "I do not love you", do not hesitate ridicule another child or, what is even worse, begins to pepper us with swearwords.
Crying or kicking to channel frustration
The way that children have to manifest their aggressiveness is different at each age. When they are babies, they are forced to bend to our demands and customs, but when they are older ... things change.
Generally is between three and four years when a crisis of aggressiveness appears more pronounced. At this moment the child tries to affirm his "I" and tends to oppose everything we say to him. During this stage, the tantrums are your escape valve. After four or five years, aggressiveness begins to manifest itself through verbal aggression: insults, swearing, accusations of the type "mom, you're stupid!" or "I do not love you, idiot!"
