Parenting

Sometimes the behavior of children can be quite alarming to their parents. It is helpful to remember that a child’s hold on impulse control and morality is in a developmental process. Especially under strong emotional arousal, the hold can slip away. Often in such circumstances problematic behaviors are not deliberate but the result of developmental immaturity. (Cohen, L.
