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.
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.

this is due to feeling of insecurity by: Anonymous
when the child is not completele fit and comfortable he is irritated of himself.so he loses tempers of little or no reasons

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?
