I think there are many moms and dads who are concerned about the fact that even if they make an appointment with their child, they will not be able to keep it. Rather, few children may be keeping their promises every time. For example, many families have made such promises with their children, such as "games up to 1 hour a day", "return by 5 pm", and "up to 2 sweets". They are something they don't usually keep.Keeping promises is important for building trust in relationships, such as making friends. When you are little, you may be forgiven even if you cannot keep your promise, but in order to lead a social life in the future, you need to be able to keep your promise. Here are some reasons why children don't keep their promises and how to make good promises.Reasons why children do not keep their promises 1. ForgettingThe first reason why we cannot keep it is that we forget what we promised in the first place. The limbic system, a part of the brain, is powerful when you are focused on something or engrossed in something. Concentration and engrossment are positive, but on the other hand, in terms of keeping promises, "The game is going to end in an hour, but two hours have passed before I knew it!" If I was playing, the sun would have set before I knew it! " I'm not intentionally breaking it, trying to annoy or mean my parents. The function of the brain and the environment in which the child is placed make the promise itself forgotten.Reason 2. Not knowing the reason for the promiseWhy can't I play as many games as I like? Why shouldn't you eat as many sweets as you like? Maybe your child asked you a question and didn't answer it well. If you don't understand the reason or meaning of the promise in the first place, you may not understand or understand it in your heart. If you don't understand and understand, you won't feel like keeping your promise. If you don't explain exactly why you have to keep the promise, you will only be "keeping the promise because your parents will get angry" and the effect of the promise will be weakened. A promise made because it is a parent and child is not a promise. Why don't you explain it without omitting it just because the other person is a child?How to make a good promise with your childFrom here, I will introduce a good promise method so that children can keep their promises. If your child is having trouble keeping his promise, try one of the methods here.Method 1. Confirm your promise before you get hooked on playThe first is to confirm your promise before you get hooked. Children often get too focused, both good and bad, and often break their promises. So, first check your promises before you get hooked.For example, let your child say "go home before the 5 o'clock chime" before they go out to play. When you make a promise with your own mouth, it will be memorable. In that case, it is more effective to keep an eye on your eyes rather than just letting them say it.Method 2. Set an alarmThe second is to set an alarm. When you are absorbed in playing games and playing, you forget the promised time and continue endlessly. By setting an alarm clock alarm and kitchen timer, you can prevent forgetting the promised time. However, in the case of games, having to take root in the habit of setting alarms as soon as you start the game can be a bit of a pain. In such a case, it is effective to write and paste the promise to "set an alarm" on a piece of paper because it often comes to your eyes and visually reminds you of the promise.Method 3. Write on paper and put it onThe third is to write it on a piece of paper and paste it. It is also useful to write and paste the promise on a piece of paper so that the child who is absorbed in it and often forgets the promise can remember it. Writing on paper is more important than saying it.The point is to stick the paper where you can see it naturally. For example, if your child is playing a video game, put a piece of paper on the edge of the TV or on the TV where you can see it, with a promise that "the game is one hour a day". I will. When you suddenly see it, your child will naturally start to worry about clocks and alarms, and will think, "It's about time. I have to finish it."Method 4. When you don't keep your promise, look back togetherIf your child fails to keep his promise, look back with him. A child who couldn't keep his promise is full of guilt, but if he just scolds him, it's hard for him to think "how can I keep it next time?" By asking the child, "How did you keep your promise?" And "Let's think together!", You will be conscious of keeping your promise next time, and it will lead to further development of thinking ability.How was that. We've shown you why your child can't keep their promises and how to make good promises. Not all children can keep their promises in these ways. In such a case, let's try a different method by devising the parents themselves. Different children have different personalities. There is no model answer for parenting. It is important for parents and children to make trial and error so that their children can keep their promises.
