4-year-old children are going through a stage where they like to swear. They grinned and insulted each other. They will say "you big fool" or "I'm going to flush you out of the toilet." They think that they are smart and brave in doing so. You should regard this as a normal development stage that will soon pass. In my experience, those young children take pleasure in swearing, because their parents have publicly expressed shock and panic, and even threatened them how their parents will punish them if they continue to swear. Parents will do the opposite. Children will think, "Hey", this is a clever way to get into trouble. Very interesting! I have a way to beat mom and dad! In this way, parents will become more and more anxious. The easiest way to stop children from swearing is to pretend not to hear them. After a child says a lot of dirty words, if no one pays attention, he will feel bored himself. Swearing behavior in primary school. As they get older, all children will learn some swearing words from their friends. At first, they only knew that these words were obscene. It will take them a long time to understand the true meaning of these words. Out of human instinct, they would rather let others say that they are a little bad, but also show their maturity, so they will keep repeating these dirty words. Parents who are committed to prohibition always think that their babies are simple and lovely, so it is usually shocking to hear these dirty words coming out of their children's mouths. So what should a good parent do? I think it's best not to be surprised by their dirty words, just like children of three or four years old. If you act surprised, it will have a serious impact on timid children. They are afraid and may never play with abusive children again. However, most children will feel very happy or at least smug after disturbing their parents. Some children still swear at home and try to annoy their parents. Some children are afraid to swear at home under the threat of their parents, but they are right in other places. Children behave like this because you let them know that they can make the world restless. It's like hanging firecrackers on them and saying, "For God's sake, please don't set off firecrackers. On the other hand, I don't think you need to endure all this silently. You can tell your child firmly: "most people don't like to hear those dirty words, and I don't want you to say those." "Then don't say more. If the child continues to provoke you, you should stop all his activities (see page 3 16) and let him know that this is the inevitable result. Teenagers. Finally, talk about teenagers. Children of this age often say some dirty words casually. They use these dirty words for several purposes: to express disgust and contempt (this is the general mentality of many teenagers); Emphasize the importance of the topic; Vent one's emotions; Show an open attitude towards arbitrary and outdated social taboos. But at this stage, the main purpose of children swearing is to use it as a sign to prove that they belong to a small group. It's no use arguing with your child about whether swearing is good or bad, because he already knows that some behaviors will make you unhappy. However, you should still ask him not to swear when he may offend others, and don't get yourself into trouble because of swearing. For example, don't swear in front of you, don't swear in front of your brother, and don't swear in school. When you are with your children, if you pay too much attention to swearing, the result may just be an easy opportunity for your children to show their independence and ability. Especially for adolescent children, we should pay more attention to what they say, not the way they speak.
