How To Build Child Without Anger

Have children is a challenge for parents. Moreover, if your child is old school. The challenge increased by one: they wake in the morning to go to school. If every day you should be angry at them, would be emotionally draining, yes. "If every morning should start with high emotion, it could be that you will lose the energy to live the rest of the day," says Helene Emsellem, author of Snooze ... or Lose! 10 "No-War" Ways to Improve Your Teen's Sleep Habits.

Before you went further, Emsellem, who is also medical director of the Center for Sleep & Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase, invites you first to understand why children are difficult to get up early. According to him, the kids, especially teens, need to sleep around 9 hours a day and a new biologic will fall asleep at around 23:00. However, you yourself know that the school day began long before the break when they are finished. That is why, it is difficult to ask them to immediately open his eyes, then shower and get ready for school.

"It's hard waking up at the teenager was not a matter of habit, but a biological problem," said Emsellem gives conclusions. So, what "cures" so you do not need to shout every morning? First of all, Emsellem encourage you to talk with the child. Say that you want him to learn to get up early to be accompanied on their own without parental nagging. There are several ways that can be taken to make this happen:

1. Give responsibility. "Have the children more responsible for their sleep patterns. That is, they must learn to get up without help from others," said Emsellem. In addition, make a limit. For example, you'll wake one time only. "If you go into his room four times in every morning, they will not feel a responsibility to get up early because they feel you will continue to do so," said Emsellem.

2. Teach them how. Ask them to record every day, what time they sleep and when they wake up. Do this for several weeks. Note the extent to which changes in sleep patterns can help them get up earlier. For example, you may request homework before 19:00, and slept earlier than usual.

3. Beware the end of the week. Most children and teens want to delay the sleep time on weekends, because they felt they could wake up the next day over lunch. According to William Kohler, medical director of the Florida Sleep Institute in Spring Hill, Florida, one should not in fact if they want to sleep longer on weekends. "However, give up spare time of only about 1-2 hours later than the school day. To be sure, do not let them get up after 10:00," Kohler said. This can prevent interference with their sleep patterns.

4. Keep computers and TVs from their rooms. Also, do not let them interact with the two electronic devices is a few moments before sleep, because this can actually make them so difficult to sleep. In the meantime, make sure the child's bedroom has a window facing out, so the sun outside can help them get up every morning.
