Stubborn kids needs to be dealt differently, because when they are directed nicely they turn out to be the most successful leaders. Here are some simple tips to deal with stubborn kids, take a look.
Give them choices

Stay calm
It is essential to not loose temper while handling a stubborn child. Explain rather than arguing! Remember to now allow your reactions be influenced by your child’s behavior. They need special care and you can only do this with staying calm.
Listen
If you are the parent it does not mean you will always direct kids! You need to hear them as well. Hearing what they have to say makes them feel important,
Make rules and have consequences
Talk about family rules together and why it’s necessary for everybody to follow it. Allow kids to give their inputs as well. They should also be well aware about the consequences of breaking rules too.
Respect them
Do not always say no to them and respect their decisions. Like if they want to wear flip flops when the temperature is freezing, tell them its harmful effects rather than scolding them for their choice.
Connect with them
When we ask children to do something that is against their wish, they mostly rebel so we need to connect with them and get involved in what we want them to do. With such approach it is more likely that they will listen.
