2. Why children misbehave?
One reason children misbehave is because they are feeling
inadequate, like they aren’t enough. Everyone feels down
once in a while, even young children. Children might
misbehave in situations where they aren’t feeling good
about themselves. They may act out passively by
withdrawing or avoiding, like refusing to complete a
requested task or participate in an event. To cope with these
feelings, many children show a hesitancy to engage because
they don’t feel like they are good enough.
3. Inadequacy| How
Children feel?
➔ When children experience these feelings,
they might feel unworthy or inferior to
others. In order to avoid these
uncomfortable feelings and the vulnerability
that comes with them, children often act out
by displaying withdrawal behaviors, a
pessimistic attitude or by putting
themselves down.
➔ Children may not have the words or tools
necessary to communicate or address these
feelings and because no parent or caregiver
wants to watch their child feel this way,
these situations often make parents feel
helpless or discouraged.
