Yelling could be as harmful as hitting children, new study shows
"Mothers’ and fathers’ harsh verbal discipline at age 13 predicted an increase in adolescent conduct problems and depressive symptoms between ages 13 and 14" the study said.People with impulse control problems have kids with impulse control problems.
They also noted that when parents responded to a child's misbehavior by yelling or otherwise using harsh verbal reactions, the children were more likely to continue the misbehavior.
Therefore: It must be the screaming.
He is a professor and teaching that kind of thinking to paying students. Sigh.
