54、olers have no idea how others feel. They are in the process of understanding their ownfeelingsand have not yet developed “ emotionalintelligenee” . Children of this age also do things just because it can make themfeel powerful whe n they are able to make others resp ond.Here are some things you can

55、do to reduce the mea n talk: When the child s ina good mood, look her in the eyes and lovingly tell her how you feel when she speaks in a mean way toano ther child.

57、 and, with your arm around her, face the child thatis receiving her meanness, and apologize to thechild for bothof you, the n walk away.

It gives the child too much p

59、ower and too much attenti on. The most effective con seque nces are those that are directly tied to the behavior. If she is beingmean to children, then the play session ends. And most importantly,set up this consequenee inadvanee whenthe negativebehavior is NOT occurri ng.If you should catch her bei

60、ng a “bully ” to another child, and she has somehow hurt him or her,immediately put all your atte nti on on the victim, not her. Dont scold or punish your daughter. Softly, gently, and immediately,nurture the hurtchild and get your daughter to assist you in the nurturing.Whenthings have calmeddow n,
