Children and adults have almost completely different ways of thinking and talking. The seemingly harmless words you say when you are angry can adversely affect the baby's psychology, causing the baby to lose confidence, causing negative emotions for the baby.
- "Why are you not like siblings?": Should not compare the baby with siblings. This only makes your baby feel you love him or her more than he does. It will make the baby angry, jealous and even envious of her siblings. Relationships between siblings in a family can be changed. Therefore, you should treat all your children equally.

- "Go away": When you are busy doing something important and your baby annoys you, telling him to go away can make him feel that he is not important to you. Instead, tell your baby to give you a few minutes for you to finish the task and you will be with him.
Comparing your baby to others does not help him get better, it just makes him jealous.
- “Don't play with that friend. It… ”: It's good to know who she's playing with. But it's not cool when you judge your baby's friends and force him to play with whom, who is good enough to play. When you force your baby to stop playing with someone else, he will resist and become rebellious. If you truly believe that your baby's friend can be a negative influence on your baby, you should talk to your baby in a way he can understand.
- "Let the father / mother do it for me": Continuously saying such statements can make the baby develop reliance on parents, gradually creating a lack of responsibility for the child . Instead of doing everything for your baby, you should guide your baby to do it, give him some independence.

- "Because you say so": This statement puts complete control in your hands and dispels your baby's growing independent will. It can make your baby less able to learn, reason by himself, making him lack confidence. All she knows is that her parents said that. Sometimes, it can be difficult to tell the reason why you would force your child to do this. Instead of talking to your baby like that, you should find a way to say differently or simplify the reason for the baby to understand and follow.
