How to cope with psychological crisis of the one-year-old child

It seems, still yesterday your kid quietly snuffled in the cradle. And you looked at him and dreamed that rather its stones got stronger, and he could sit, stand, go. And there passed year. The child turned into the fidget and with great interest began to study the world. And you think already wistfully of times when it "squash" lay in a bed.

Whims and hysterics of the tot dement you. It seems to you you are guilty that he does not understand a word it "is impossible". You do not hurry to blame yourself. All these whims that other, as psychological crisis of the one-year-old child. Crisis of one year, according to psychologists, is endured by all children. At this age at kids there comes the transition period in development. The child, as a rule, already surely costs on legs, itself goes, seeks to study as much as possible the things surrounding him. Only not all these things are safe for him. It you know that it is impossible to touch a hot oven – it is possible to burn, or you should not lift garbage on the street – it is possible to ache. And such concepts are not familiar to the baby yet therefore it also rolls up a hysterics when you speak to him "no".

Some parents, trying "to take in hand" the child, slap in a bottom or shout at him. But the one-year-old kid does not understand yet that such physical punishment. Having been hit on a bottom he will begin to cry and shout even more loudly. Therefore to beat the child or to raise the voice – not an exit from a problem. But also to allow the baby to break a vase and to be wounded with its splinters too it is impossible. How to be?

Curious children

First of all remove far away all dangerous objects the house that the kid not only could not get them, but also see. If something from "forbidden" nevertheless fell of the child into hands or he persistently demands to give him a crystal wine glass or a vase, do not stop his curiosity categorical is not present. Otherwise the tot can grow up sluggish and nothing the interested. Consider this subject together with it. If pulls the kid to hot objects – to the iron or an oven, explain that having touched them, it will be sick. Kind of touch to a hot subject and pretend that burned. And then switch the child to something safer. For example, interest him in silicone molds for pastries or bright plastic cups.

"Mother's tail"

Enduring crisis of the first year, children want to draw as much as possible attention to themselves, especially mother's. Even if mom is the whole day with the child at home, he will follow her on heels as a tail to ask on hands, to demand to play with it. And mom should wash, clean up the apartment, to make a lunch, to remake a heap of affairs. She thinks, here I will make all this, then and we will play. But the kid requires attention right now. To preserve the nerves, it is better to postpone all affairs for an hour floor. Spend this time for the tot: play together with it, read verses, nursery rhymes, sing songs. Through some time the child will understand that you will not leave anywhere, and will be able quietly to sit itself, having allowed you to complete household chores. Other problem with "tails" – mom cannot leave even in a toilet. As soon as you are behind a bathroom door, on the other hand is distributed heart-breaking cry. The child is afraid that mom will not return therefore cries. Try to approach creatively a campaign in a toilet. Take bright drawings, labels or candy wrappers. Push them in turn under a door, suggesting the kid to do the same on the other side of a door. Sometimes it is enough to child to hear mom's voice to be sure that she is near therefore sing songs or read verses or nursery rhymes. Children are very sensitive to mother's mood. If you are quiet, and the child near you feels comfortable. You become hysterical – also the kid writhes in hysterics. Therefore stock up with patience, you hold near at hand a lung soothing, for example tincture a valerian. The awkward age will surely end, and your child will become quiet and obedient again.
