Generally the most effective approach to dealing with the child's aggressive behaviour is

  • A.to channel his/her aggression into legitimate areas of competition.
  • B.to reward him/her for friendly behaviour and to ignore his/her aggressive behaviour.
  • C.to give him due punishments, when he shows aggressive tendencies.
  • D.to insist that he/she apologies for his undesirable behaviour.

Answer: A

The most effective approach to a child's aggressive behaviour is to channel the aggression into legitimate areas of competition.

Aggression is an energy that cannot simply be removed, but it can be given an acceptable outlet such as sport, games and competitive tasks, where it earns approval and does no harm.

Punishment can increase hostility and teach the child that force is used by those with power. Ignoring the behaviour while rewarding friendliness is milder, but it leaves the energy without an outlet, and forcing an apology does not change the behaviour.
