My child is always getting angry at the slightest things that irritates him. For example, he would turned on the TV to his favorite cartoon and when the TV was faulty, he screamed and shouted at anyone that came his way.
He was at the nursery the other day when the school teacher asked him to lower his volume because he was talking too loudly. He screamed at his teacher and almost wanted to hit her. The teacher was surprised and reported the incident to me.
I am not sure what makes a child at 4 years old flares up so easily. Anyone has an angry child and how do you get him to calm down? I really do not want him to grow up to be an angry man in the future.
i have a kid of 1& half years she is ok every thing with her health but she always keeps every thing in mouth and she wont hear our words what we are saying but i will irritate with that and i use to slap her is it the right way are not please help me and she used to touch every thing then i shouts but she is not getting please give suggestion to me on this how to handle her

Your Child is not a Bad Child! by: Anonymous
Most parents hate to hear this, but I would definitely take him for an evaluation by a child neuro-psychologist to check for signs of developmental delays and disorders. Sometimes, there are other things going on in the brain that explain behaviors that have nothing to do with being spoiled or seeing their parent's behaviors. My son was diagnosed with PDD-NOS when he was 3 1/2 and still not talking and has developmental delays. He's always had trouble with transitioning from one task to the next and gets very upset over the smallest things. Your son is still young so the best thing you can do if he does have some kind of developmental delay is to get him into speech and occupational therapy as soon as possible. Look for programs around your city that help with this including public schools that may allow your child to get help and start experiencing being around other children and how to interact with them. It has really helped my child a lot and he now has a bigger vocabulary than most adults, however he is still forgetful and quick to get angry at things that don't matter to most people. He is on medication that helps greatly with these symptoms. He is a loving child and a sweet boy, but he cannot control himself without his medications. I wish you all the resources that can help you find a solution for your child so that you both can be happy and healthy! :)

all i can say is thank you. i have a three year old son who also gets upset easily and is very aggressive towards myself and my wife. i did not want to acknowledge it. but i'm glad to hear what u said. You are correct in all you said. Thank you and i will definately try not to get upset so easily. What we do and react affect our children more than we realise.

Go away Tom by: Anonymous
I do not know if this has already been taken care of or not, but if it has not, it needs to be. "Tom" is obviously in the wrong area of the internet. People like Tom should go to one of the more redneck sites or ones for people that are obviously social retards and have no clue how to be courtious and kind. Tom, as this site's name so obviously states, this site is for parents who care about their kids and want to share or improve their skills, etc. So take your rude, uncaring, idiotic remarks and go to iamanidiot.com. I think that one was created just for you.

have you been getting angry easily yourself too? by: Joan
Hi Dianne, I was in the same situation as yourself too when my child was 2-3 years old. She got angry pretty easily at first and i was quick to dismiss it as the "terrible two". But things got worst and she would hit her nursery teacher and got angry at meal times and would say something like "i dun like mama"...it really made me sad.
There was one day that i got angered at the slightest incident which really got me thinking if i was the one that causes her to behave similarly too. Most of the time, our children are a reflection of ourselves and we should examine our own behavior too. I know its hard to accept this but most often than not, its true!
I tried to change my own behavior cause i know my little one would be observing my every moves. After few weeks and months later, i saw some improvements in her. We laughed together and had lots of fun. Now, she is almost 5 and i am pretty happy that her "old self" is no longer an issue.. Hope this helps you....:) Relax....i know its not easy..but it gotta start somewhere?
