As a foster carer it is fully required that there be no physical/ emotional abuse shown to the child in your care..... Here im going to give you some tips to reach out and know how to get through to that child that their behaviour isnt acceptable..
.
Send strong messages across that hitting others is not nice
. Allow the child to explain why they feel that they are acting in that way- as some are just scared and thats the only way they know how to get attention....
. Explaining to them what the rules are in your household and be fair to the child..
, I use this one all the time with my children and other children is time out- now that might be asking them to remove them selves from each other and sitting somewhere quiet as well...
. Setting boundaries for all children and allowing them to share their feelings often helps the child on their behaviour....
Chidren come into care for various reasons, so for them to be taught and shown some respect, then they most likely show the same in return.... And they need to be shown that we all do care for them..
so feel free to add more of your ideas how effective your disapline is with your own children and others that may come into your care..
Thankyou
