How to handle stubborn kids? |URDU| |Prof Dr Javed Iqbal|

A child may refuse to listen, argue repeatedly, or insist on doing things their own way and parents may quickly feel that the child has become stubborn. But is the child always the one being stubborn?

Sometimes, we need to look at the situation from the child’s perspective. What we see as stubbornness may sometimes come from our own expectations and insistence. Understanding this difference can help us respond to children with greater awareness.

At the same time, this does not mean that children should be allowed to do whatever they want. Every home needs clear rules, boundaries, and principles that everyone follows — including parents. When children see their parents following the same rules, they learn discipline through example.

I want to help you understand how to create a controlled environment where children have clear boundaries, while still having the freedom to learn, experience, and develop responsibility.

• Why every family needs clear rules and principles
• Why parents should follow the same rules they expect from children

💡Key Reflection
Effective parenting is not about controlling every action of a child. It is about creating the right balance between rules, boundaries, freedom, and responsibility.

✓ Children learn discipline when parents model it themselves.
✓ Clear boundaries can give children freedom without removing responsibility.
✓ The goal of discipline should be to help children understand and respect rules.
