Severe Nurturing Propensities Can Be as Harming to Children as Sexual Maltreatment, master warm
Strict parenting habits can be as damaging to kids as sexual abuse, an expert has warned. Dr. James Comer, a professor of child psychiatry at Yale University School of Medicine, has written extensively on the damaging effects of harsh parenting practices. He asserts that while parents may have the best intentions when they are disciplining their children, their methods can have a lasting, negative impact on their child’s development. Dr. Comer says that when children are subjected to harsh parenting practices, they can suffer from psychological trauma that can be just as bad as the trauma of sexual abuse. He believes that these strict parenting habits can also damage the child’s self-esteem and lead to a variety of psychological issues, including depression, anxiety, and even substance abuse. Dr. Comer warns that it is important for parents to be aware of the potential damage they can do to their children if they are too strict. He recommends that parents choose a parenting style that is firm but fair, and emphasizes communication and positive reinforcement when disciplining children. By utilizing these strategies, parents can help their children develop the skills necessary for success in life without inflicting psychological damage on them.
