Children who have self-harming behaviors during their rebellious period need to see a psychologist.

Children's rebellious period is a very common phenomenon. Many children will show rebellious psychology when they reach a certain age, and some children will engage in self-harming behaviors. So let's understand whether children have self-harming behaviors during their rebellious period? Do children need to see a psychologist during their rebellious period?

Adolescence is a very special period of development. During adolescence, we all think that adolescence is a problem of mild brain dysfunction. Adolescents have a self-identity crisis. They need to be independent, but they cannot leave their parents. They have a lot of contradictions in their hearts, so they use some other unique behaviors to determine their sense of security, and sometimes even rebel and self-harm. He is in pain, and he doesn't know how to deal with it. He would rather cut himself and make his body suffer. This is self-harm caused by adolescence. Part of the reason for this self-harm behavior is that he has a mental illness, which leads to self-harm. So the same wrist cutting is not necessarily suicide. Some are self-mutilation and some are self-harm, but some children commit suicide.

It is normal for children to have a rebellious period. It is not recommended to see a psychologist, as this will make the child more rebellious. In psychology, children generally have two rebellious periods. The first is around 3 or 4 years old, which is called the first rebellious period. The second is around 12 years old, which is adolescence, and is called the second rebellious period. This is an important period for children to awaken their self-awareness and a normal phenomenon in their growth. Rebellious psychology is a phenomenon unique to adolescence. Generally, they will go along with them in unprincipled matters and insist on principled matters. Don't rush to deny rebellious behavior. Understanding and tolerance are the most important. Let them know the relevant knowledge and truths and let them vent their emotions. Try to communicate and interact with your children as much as possible, find their strengths and encourage them more, and let them be willing to talk to their parents sometimes. Parents can smoothly get through this period if they accept, respect and understand them.

When facing a rebellious child, many parents will use violence in anger, beat the child violently, or yell at the child, directly mock and criticize. In fact, this method is completely wrong. Because this mistake will make the child's rebellion more serious, so the parents' irritability will be transmitted to the child, making the child the same as the parents, and letting the child learn to solve the problem in this way. Over time, the child will have some extreme behaviors. Many parents are always afraid that their children will lose their temper or be hurt during their children's rebellious period, so they choose to let it go and let him lose his temper. In fact, this method is also incorrect. This method will only make the child go further and become more willful. This is a problem that many parents are prone to. When the child is in the rebellious period, the parents who drink too much are so angry that they can't bear it anymore, and they beat and scold them. At this time, parents generally adopt a way to have a cold war with their children. This will actually only put the child and the parents in a deadlock. This kind of cold war is like "cold violence", which will deeply hurt the child's heart. It is not conducive to resolving contradictions or stabilizing children's emotions.

As children grow older, they undergo significant changes not only physically but also psychologically, which is commonly known as the "rebellious period". At this time, the child's independent and self-satisfied adult consciousness begins to awaken, and they strongly desire to break away from the control and constraints of their parents, hoping to do what they want according to their own wishes and ideas. So when parents want to intervene in everything, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction in their children, or even resistance. Therefore, the method of fighting violence with violence is not desirable, which will only increase the child's disgust with their parents and increase their rebellious psychology. When there is a conflict between children and parents, parents should give their children an equal voice, listen to their children's voices patiently, and sometimes need to restrain their emotions, and don't refute or disagree with their children's views and actions at every turn. When children really make mistakes, don't scold them regardless of the occasion, which is easy to hurt the child's self-esteem and aggravate the gap between the two generations. There should be ways to promote children to correct their mistakes. However, sometimes when children are emotional, parents can try to deal with it coldly, and wait for the children to calm down before continuing to discuss the original topic.
