Whining Child : 7 steps to gets your child stop
(anak2 yg suka menjerit2/menangis ketika meminta sesuatu)

1. Stop what are u doing -focus and give attention. Listen to what they have to say.

2. Describe the correct way of asking.address the method they are using. demonstrate the way that you want your child to ask for things. have to remind your child from time to time about the “magic word” needed when asking for things.

3. Praise your child for speaking nicely.

4.
Is the child’s request reasonable? The key is to focus on how the request is formed, whether it is appropriate or not. If so, comply with their request.

5. What to do if whining continues? if whining continues you will need to go back to the original method that you want them to use for asking for things.

6. What to do if the child protest? If the whining behavior continues, you need to describe their undesirable behavior to them calmly, but firmly.This is the time to take action. Describe what you are doing so that they understand why you are doing it. You will need to follow through on your action to demonstrate that you mean what you say.

7. What to do if the child becomes aggressive? Remember to describe the whining behavior, as well as the correct method of asking for things. Then place them in quiet time for 2 minutes. Placing them on a chair or on a mat is ideal for this. Let them out of quiet time once their behavior has quieted down. Then you may want to go over the “nice way” of asking for things before encouraging them to ask again.
