Role Modeling:Anger Management

As parents we must always be aware that our children are watching what we do. We are, in fact, the primary learning source for our children. We teach our kids how to deal with their anger and stress. It is in fact a learned behavior. If a child learns negative ways of dealing with anger or stress it must be cogitively relearned in a better way. The most successful way to do this is through a cognitive based anger management class.

Parents that behave in a negative way will communicate to their children that those negative actions are ok. These behaviors may include: yelling, throwing things, cussing, being disrespectful towards others, etc. Negative examples of communication may also teach our children that the world is not safe, that adults cannot be trused, and honesty and respect are not valued.

On the other hand, if a parent communicates in a postive way they will get a postive result. one example is, by working together as a family a parent communicates cooperation. Discussing news and events will communicate citzenship. A parent that tells the truth will communicate to their children that it is important to be honest. By showing our kids by example is the results that we will end up with.

Bullying and being bullied linked to suicide in children, review of studies suggests

September 2nd, 2008
ScienceDaily (July 19, 2008) — Researchers at Yale School of Medicine have found signs of an apparent connection between bullying, being bullied and suicide in children, according to a new review of studies from 13 countries.
“While there is no definitive evidence that bullying makes kids more likely to kill themselves, now that we see there’s a likely association, we can act on it and try to prevent it,” said review lead author Young-Shin Kim, M.D., assistant professor at Yale School of Medicine’s Child Study Center.
In the review, Kim and colleague Bennett Leventhal, M.D., analyzed 37 studies that examined bullying and suicide among children and adolescents. The studies took place in the United States, Canada, several European countries (including the United Kingdom and Germany), South Korea, Japan and South Africa.
Almost all of the studies found connections between being bullied and suicidal thoughts among children. Five reported that bullying victims were two to nine times more likely to report suicidal thoughts than other children were.
