Many children hurt themselves to release their anger or cope up with feelings of guilt or shame. They chose insane ways like scratching their hands, pulling hair, biting or bruising themselves.   Such things are a sign that your child needs a counselor or you sit with him and ask politely why he did so or what made him do so? Don’t ask direct questions because this will make them feel ashamed of their behavior which is not right.
