It is a serious problem that children and adolescents mistreat their parents

Unfortunately, it is already common to read on the news or watch parents claiming that they are being mistreated by their minor children and that they ask for help because they do not know what to do with them and are afraid of them. The Professional Association of the Magistracy, it has been reiterating for some time that education is fundamental from an early age and that parents and educators must instill in children that values ​​such as tolerance and human dignity are not mere words.

In 2009 most of the perpetrators of abuse in their familiesThey were male adolescents who exercised violent behavior mainly against their mothers, however and unfortunately more and more, there is an evolution that tends to be more equal between the number of aggressive male and female children.

He aggressive child behavior, usually leads to him becoming a juvenile delinquent, which according to experts in psychology usually begin with attitudes such as lies, lack of respect for his parents and environment, house leaks, threats and even aggressions and although not in all cases, in the vast majority are usually families of all social classes, where there is little discipline and poor supervision of parents.

The Office of the Ombudsman stresses that it is very important to detect the problem as soon as possible, for this, psychologists and pedagogues distinguish three fundamental symptoms, which can give the alarm to parents and that are observed at an early age: First, would be the inability to develop authentic moral emotions, this entails the difficulty to show guilt and sincere regret for bad actions. He second it is the inability to learn from mistakes and punishments that seem not to work and in third and lastly, habitual behaviors of defiance, lies and even cruel acts towards brothers and friends.

Given these attitudes you should ask specialized help, which will probably include family therapy, denying that there is a problem with our child will only lead to it getting worse as it grows.

The responsibility It is in the first place of the parents that must be supported by the educators, it cannot be that a child does not know what a "no" is and that they do not know how to distinguish basic rules of respect from others.

In my opinion, the main problem is that our society has degenerated into an overly permissive education where the punishment for negative behaviors is frowned upon. In a crisis of values ​​where it seems that everything is valid and everything is justifiable, meanwhile the authority in the family is being diluted. Because just like anyone else, children also need limits and yet it seems that they are granted absolute power over their parents. It is time to reflect on how to practice as parents with our children. Friends are something else.
