Stubborn Child

Asked for Male, 10 years

My son grinds his teeth frequently without any reason, and he gets angry if we try to help him fix things like wearing cloth. He bites us for small reasons, and cries and shows stubbornness. His communication skill is poor, as he talks in broken sentence. He shows stubbornness and throws tantrums.He likes to play with other children but sometimes throws toys at them as well. He is very smart. He learns to do things by himself and is overactive.

Dear Patient,

Children cannot filter thoughts and actions, they take time. They have too much to express but they haven't learned yet how to express it. You will need to be patient and persevere with time. You will need to distract him rather than say no, ignore sometimes, isolate when he's overreacting and hold him tight in a hug with arms locked and keep reassuring calmly and asking to talk and say what he feels and why he did the bad action. This isn't your fault or his. However, if you feel extra clueless you may consider meeting with a child psychologist to get useful tips.

Moreover, if you need further help, we recommend checking with a best child specialist in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/child-specialist
