Smart and cunning children

A smart child is liked by everyone, but if they are cunning, parents should be cautious. Cunning children often show signs of only being interested in their own benefits. For example, a recent story from a young mother who said that her child is very smart, but their cunning intelligence makes her unsatisfied. Every time they play with their neighborhood friends, they never bring their own toys to play with because they are afraid they will get damaged, and instead, they only play with their friends’ toys.

One day, the mother asked the child why they behaved like that. The child replied, “I’m afraid that if my toys get broken, I won’t have anything to play with anymore.” At this point, the young mother felt that her child would develop a cunning intelligence, so she analyzed and explained to the child. From then on, the child started bringing their own toys to play with the other kids.

Whining and being clingy

When a young child whines and acts clingy, they will be loved and spoiled by adults who are willing to fulfill their requests. However, if this behavior continues when the child grows older, it becomes difficult to accept. Not everything in life can go according to one’s wishes. Therefore, the child needs to learn to adapt to things that don’t go their way. Parents should address this attitude immediately when they see it in their child, as the longer it persists, the more difficult it will be to adjust their personality.

Verbal manipulation and shifting responsibilities

For children under 3 years old, selfishness is not an issue. More accurately, the attitude of only caring about oneself at that time is called self-love, not selfishness (only caring about benefits and rights for oneself).

A child who knows how to speak in a way that pleases others will always be liked by adults. However, if the child shows signs of verbal manipulation along with shifting their own responsibilities onto others or causing harm to others’ interests, parents should immediately intervene. This personality trait, if ingrained in the child’s mind, will make it difficult for them to gain affection from people around them, which will harm the child in the long run.
