Starting from birth, children develop brain connections through their everyday experiences. They’re built through positive interactions with their parents and caregivers and by using their senses to interact with the world.

A stage of development is an age period when certain needs, behaviors, experiences and capabilities are common and different from other age periods. Here are some behaviors you might expect to see at certain stages.

Piaget’s four stages

When can I start using logic with my young child? A. Between approximately 2 and 3 years, children begin to understand the logical connection between ideas — the “why” of things — which is the reason they start to ask “Why?” about almost everything!

Often when we get angry at our children, it’s because we haven’t set a limit, and something is grating on us. The minute you start getting angry, it’s a signal to do something. No, not yell. Intervene in a positive way to prevent more of whatever behavior is irritating you.

Guidance from a mental-health professional can also be very helpful.

1. Teach Your Child About Feelings.
2. Create an Anger Thermometer.
3. Develop a Calm-Down Plan.
4. Teach Anger Management Techniques.
5. Avoid Giving In to Tantrums.
6. Follow Through With Consequences.
7. Avoid Violent Media.
8. A Word From Verywell.

In fact, studies have found that our brains are hard-wired to have an instant reaction to a crying child, making us more attentive and ready to help — and fast! A crying infant triggers our fight or fight response, increasing our heart rate and pushing us into action… even if that child is not our own.

2. Set limits.

4. Hear them out.
5. Give them your attention.

Not only does hitting kids do little good; it can worsen their long-term behavior. “Children who experience repeated use of corporal punishment tend to develop more aggressive behaviors, increased aggression in school, and an increased risk of mental health disorders and cognitive problems,” Sege said in a statement.

“The general rule of thumb is by the time children reach school age, around five years old, they shouldn’t be showering with you,” says Dr. Richard Beyer, a licensed psychologist in Arcadia, California. “That’s the conventional wisdom, the general cutoff line.”

Proper discipline leads to self-motivation, self-control, and emotional stability over the long haul. It doesn’t usually feel great to discipline your kid. There is often anger, sadness, tension, stress, and sometimes even tears. But proper discipline is one of the most important components of your child’s development.

Disciplining your child means teaching them responsible behaviour and self-control. With appropriate and consistent discipline, your child will learn about consequences and taking responsibility for their own actions. The ultimate aim is to encourage the child to learn to manage both their feelings and behaviour.

“Discipline your children, and they will give you peace of mind and will make your heart glad.” “I tell you the truth, ‘Anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it. ‘ Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them.”

Children are blessed by God. In blessing the children while here on earth as God incarnate, Jesus shows his heart toward little ones. In verse 13 of this passage, the disciples rebuked the people for bringing their kids to Jesus, probably because he was talking with self-important religious leaders.

Do not exasperate your children (Ephesians 6:1–4) ‘ Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.”
