What are some ways to put fear into a child, if the child is bigger than you and they use that to their advantage to try and bully you around?

Answer #1

Threaten to tell there parents…Kids usually fear any kind of adult authority.

Answer #2

Maybe I should have been more specific, how do you put fear into your child that is tryin to use thr size to bully you around

Answer #3

The best thing is to make a child afraid is by complaining to his or her parents.

If that doesn’t work then i will suggest , you to keep another person with you which is bigger than the child.

If that doesn’t work then keep a deadly barking Dog with you , hope it will make the child afraid.

Answer #4

I dont believe in using fear to parent a child. In my opinion thats bad parenting and isnt productive in the least bit. If your child is using their size to try and bully you or get their way you have to show that its not acceptable and will have consequences. Dont back down, dont give in, dont act afraid, and be consistant. It also helps to correct the situation and give a punishment before things reach that point. Your kids have to learn respect and you have to enforce it. The second they misbahve - they recieve disciplinary actions (phones taken away, not allowed out the house, door taken off of room, etc). When they try and use their size to argue against the punishment be firm and dont back down. You show fear or you show that youll back down and they will use that against you.

Answer #5

Guilt. Not fear. Guilt works a lot better than fear. A child will react more positive if you are disappointed rather than angry. When someone inflicts fear, the reaction is to put up your guard and retaliate when the time is right. Hitler inflicted fear and he had his end. Fear always brings rebellion. Love can bring redemption.
