A tomboy is good! Yes, we understand how hard it is for you. But in the future, he will show himself from the best side! We dream that he will clean up the toys, say “thank you very much, dear mother” and do his homework for the week ahead. The child dreams of climbing into a puddle, making a Scrat suit out of his mother’s fur coat, and punching the asshole Senka. And in many ways, he is right, without knowing it himself.
1. Active position.
A toddler who is used to sitting quietly in a corner so as not to annoy the elders is likely to have problems standing up for himself and others. A temperamental child will get into a fight so as not to offend a friend. And when he grows up, he won’t let the boss sit on his head, and the social security will be rude to his dad. It is clear that now he still does not know how to control his emotions and impulses – so he has both the potential of a tyrant and the risk of getting hit on the head. However, you can learn how to use these resources correctly. Oriental martial arts – what he needs.
2. Ability to resolve.
“To decide with words, not with fists,” you also won’t learn if you don’t get into difficult situations at all (because you run away from any adventure or showdown like the plague). Conflict is a stressful situation that you definitely need to go through sometime in order to train your communication skills.
3. Independence.
So why doesn’t he listen? And even strives to do the opposite, as luck would have it! You “put on a hat” for him – he will also take off his scarf, loving him “let me help” – he angrily “leave me alone!” The order “do not climb” is generally useless – it will climb until it runs into. This negativism sometimes seems like a weight chained to the feet – you can’t take a step normally, the baby is always rowdy and protests. Otherwise, however, other questions await you soon. Why can’t he do anything himself? Why is it already a feat for him to go to the supermarket without an escort? Why does any sneeze run to coordinate with mom, wife, and TV? And what a trouble-free bunny he was!..
4. Ambition.
The one who does everything “as it should”, “as required”, “as it is right”, most likely not only will not achieve heights in his career but will remain on the lower rungs of the social ladder. Because even a good performer sometimes has to argue with his superiors, and if he is taught not to stick out, you won’t stick out further than a loader. So the threats “otherwise you will become a janitor” are not for losers and bullies, but for overly obedient.
5. Creative approach.
The little imp, who painted the cat with a blue stripe, fashioned and melted a plasticine tower on the parquet floor, cut the Mohawk doll and wrapped the sleepy grandfather in a cocoon of threads, learns the world empirically. Deprive him of the pleasure of experimenting, trying, and finding – and you will get a boring conformist who in life will not have a single non-standard solution, not a single original idea.
6. Rich experience.
When an adult suddenly “breaks the roof” out of the blue and he rushes into all serious trouble: he runs away from the crown or marries a freshman, distributes property to white brothers, or drives 200 km / h – this is all popularly called “did not go crazy”. The one who is well pissed off before getting a passport does not need self-affirmation and adrenaline so much. That is why criminal authorities often grow out of excellent students, and exemplary husbands and fathers out of hooligans.
7. Ground under your feet.
A prosperous angel, from which dust particles were blown away and protected from the slightest cloud, will sooner or later come out into the real world. Imagine his shock. They were afraid to show him a dead bug so as not to injure him – and here he is faced with death. From him “bad boys and girls” dared – and then crime. He was forbidden to watch a cartoon about pirates – and here is an emergency. At the first real encounter with any life problem, he will have big psychological problems. Having passed the test of “bad company” and “dangerous hobbies”, he will cope with the same situation and pull others out.
8. Bonus: free training also for their parents.
So even before retirement age, you would have become an unsympathetic creature with a sweet smile, flabby muscles, and a penchant for a vegetable lifestyle. And so your muscles are strong (of course: tear off a small one from a perforator!), Reactions are fast (drag him from a buffalo in a zoo!), Resourcefulness – 10 points out of 10 (come up with five original reasons to let go of a neighbor’s ear in a second!), You are everything ready, not afraid of anything … And all supermen compared to you are just boring nerds!
