Attention Seeking Behavior in Children

     Oklahoma is currently under an earthquake warning issued by USGS and Oklahoma Geological Survey. Bad storms have hit this region of the country and are expected to return today or tomorrow.

     How does one deal with a child that is a disciplinary problem or seeks attention? I am no parent, but I have taken care of children and teenagers and adults and the elderly. When they act out try giving them the attention they are seeking. Perhaps their attention seeking behavior will cease if you spend a little time with them. They want love. Show them love and non-judgemental acceptance. I have found that this always works for me. I understand all kids are unique and all situations aren't necessarily remedied the same way however. Try this and see what lind of reults you get-you may be suprised. It even works on grown-ups too!
