How to keep calm: what if your child breaks a cable?
It is quite normal for children to have moments when they lose their calm and act uncontrolledly. As a parent, it is essential to know how to keep calm and respond appropriately when your child is running a cable. Here are some practical tips for managing these situations:
- Stay calm: The first step is to stay calm yourself. Breathe deeply and keep calm so you can manage the situation effectively.

- Understand your child’s emotions: Try to understand what caused your child’s reaction. This can help you react more empathically.
- Propose calm solutions: Guide your child to calm solutions to manage emotions. Encourage him to express his feelings and find more positive ways to react.
- Provide a safe space: Make sure your child has a safe space where he can calm down and relax. This can help him regain his calm more easily.
It is also important to set clear rules and boundaries with your child to help him or her manage his or her emotions appropriately in the future. Finally, remember that asking for help from a mental health professional can also be beneficial if you feel overwhelmed by the situation.
