Every kid is different and so the way to deal with them will also differ.
Parenthood is a tough job because there is no perfectly defined way to do it right.
Kids learn from the day they are born and parents often complain that their kids have become difficult to handle as they grow older.
The mistake that generally parents make is taking things lightly when their kids are young, they let them do anything that they want to do and as a result of which the kids will learn less manner.
So, the correct way is making them understand the dos and don’ts from the beginning.
And if you think you’re later then let me tell you, late is better than never.
You might have to be a little strict with them, try to communicate as much as possible and they will understand.
It is a slow process but if done correctly its great for the kid and parent both.answered by julian
We often tend to forget that children are individuals and have the same traits as their parents. How do we handle a stubborn adult? We ignore their unnecessary demands and sometimes we just cave.
Why does a kid have to be subjected to harsh treatment while an adult doesn’t?
We also forget that children’s brains are receptive to logic. Telling a kid why you can’t afford to get them a toy or why certain foods will harm them makes more sense.
Of course, the quickest solution is to scoff them or beat them but why be the villain and have them against you when you can bring them to your side and work as a team?

Were on the same boat. Sometimes when I can’t handle them anymore, I let them handle themselves. It just gets frustrating if you try to get in their way. Kids are kids, yes. That’s what I keep telling myself every time they start getting into my nerves. But you just can’t help it if you feel annoyed sometimes. They’ll know I’m not in the mood anymore when I don’t talk, interefere, care, etc. in what they’re doing anymore. It is such a waste of energy trying to get them to understand basic manners when they are not ready to learn them. It’s such a waste of time teaching kids who are just forced to study because they’re parents told them so, when they themselves aren’t ready to take in the things that are being taught to them. Such a waste. But this is not always true, too. X

how we doing i myself am a new father of a 2 year old with SPD its a sensory problem and i went back to back with a 1 year old sone as well birthdays march 10th and 11th. I definitaly understand how stubborn kids can be as i am just as stubborn. I have been working with multiple behavior specialist as well as speach therapy twice a week. My suggestion would be timout for 2 min. Using a visual timer helps i believe. This timout should be inforeced at the point of struggle when your kid is not behaving/listening they way they should. It is key to be consistent with this punishment so your kid starts to get the feel for why and when they are sent to time out. Me personally started timeout in their own room witch only exacerbate the situation weather it be kid doing harm to themselvs or jsut tearing their room apart witch as a stressed parent is something else you dont want to deal with. It is key to have this timout in the same room you normaly are in such as living room kitchen etc. and be in this room with your kid during the whole 2 min just have their chair off to this side iin their own lil space not facing a tv or something that can distract from the punishment. it also important they know they must stay seated for the whole 2 min if they are young as my sons are this is a bit difficult but if your kid can understand this consept that timout will continue. i hope this has been helpful after reading a few answers i do believe in a firm spank everynow and again but really as a last resorte because it does only build resentment in very young kids and if they are old enough to handle a spanking its problay not getting the job done only going to increase both of your anger i hope this was helpful

there’s never a reason to beat a kid, most of the times they can’t even understand why they are being punished.
there is only one thing, be strict with them, no matter how much they insist you should never give in to their demand while they’re being stubborn.
when two of my nieces and nephews start fighting over something, I just take the thing from them and they learn that they can either share or lose the thing. they learned by now that they can’t just cry and deman it backanswered by kiaazad
Based on my experience, not focusing on the book is a good strategy and building a good relationship with that kid is also effective. It would take a while but it’s gonna be worth it ‘cause if you would just focus on your emotion you’d surely gonna hate TTH or MWF or Daily class with him. :D Also, when patience bank gets empty, then refill. Sometimes reprimanding also works..but in a constructive way.
you say teaching as in TF ? ;D

Stubbornness is a common personality trait among toddlers.. You just need to understand them and show him/her the way instead of excessive beating which will only make the chilld despise you - based on my experience. :)
