Part of helping your child to solve problems is establishing clear limits on his behavior, then guiding him toward a solution. Children should know that it's okay to be angry, as long as they don't hurt other people for that reason. Use plenty of praise to promote behaviors you'd like to see more often. Try to respect your child's choices, unless they would endanger safety or health. Read books together.
Many parents stop reading to their children once they learn to read on their own.
But the stories your child is reading give you more to talk about, and you can draw on them to bring home emotional teaching. Encourage your child to play sports or get involved in after-school activities. Both of these help them relate to others. It's important not be verbally harsh when you're angry. That way, your child understands that the problem is his behavior, not who he is.
