Adults with low EQ as children have 6 bad behaviors at the dinner table

GĐXH - Even at the dinner table, parents can predict the future of children with low EQ just by these expressions.

If your child is showing any of the following symptoms, correct them as soon as possible:

1. Not concentrating, making noise while eating

Usually, young children will not sit down to eat seriously like adults but will run around the room, make noise, tease, poke around with spoons and chopsticks, and play mischievous tricks.

Many parents will think that their children are still young so these behaviors are normal.

However, in reality, children from 8 months old have entered the golden stage of eating and have begun to be interested in meals.

When children are about 2 years old, they can eat by themselves with chopsticks or spoons without their parents having to practice.

Therefore, at this stage, if children still have disruptive behaviors and do not focus on eating, it is a sign of low EQ.

The reason is that children do not like to eat or are not aware of the need to be polite when eating.

Therefore, if parents detect this behavior in their children, they need to constantly remind and correct it as soon as possible so that the child can quickly improve.

This will help children focus on eating, help them enjoy their food more, and respect others at the table.

2. Constantly criticizing the food adults cook

Children never lie. That's why adults often laugh or let it slide when children criticize something that doesn't catch their eye.

Particularly in the matter of eating, there are children who are very lazy and picky eaters, causing parents to have headaches in trying to please their children's preferences.

But at a certain stage when children are a little conscious (3-4 years old and up), there are children who constantly criticize the food their parents cook.

Many children even ask adults to buy them expensive food, far beyond the family budget.

This happens repeatedly over a long period of time not because the child is a picky eater but because the child has low EQ.

Children who show a demanding attitude and do not respect their parents' efforts tend to grow up to be selfish and not easily satisfied with their current values.

3. Messing around with food when picking up food

When children eat at home, parents often let them choose what they like, so many children have the habit of rummaging through the food to choose the part they like.

In fact, this is extremely rude and impolite.

When there are many people at the dining table, if children keep messing with food, it will affect others.

Not only are they thought to have low EQ, children are even labeled as "uneducated".

4. Make loud noises while eating

Many children often have the habit of slurping their food, smacking their lips, or making loud sounds while eating.

This is rude behavior and can easily make others feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, if parents see their children have this habit, they must tell them to stop immediately because this is impolite behavior and shows low EQ.

Instead, teach children to eat slowly, chew their food thoroughly, and eat slowly.

This habit is both polite and good for children's health. Eating slowly helps food to be digested better, reducing stomach pain.

Furthermore, chewing thoroughly gives your stomach enough time to signal your brain that it's full, which also helps you avoid overeating.

5. Monopolize food

Learning to share with those around you is a basic lesson that parents often teach their children.

However, many families easily ignore it when their children "monopolize" their favorite foods on the dinner table.

There are children who, when eating, just quickly put food in their bowl and do not allow anyone else to touch that food.

Many parents see that their children are still young so they let them eat that way.

However, this behavior has spoiled children, "encouraging" them to become selfish people, forming low EQ.

If children do not know how to share, they will gradually feel lonely when integrating into society. When at school, "gluttonous" children also have difficulty getting along with their classmates.

Therefore, parents should help their children to sympathize with other people's thoughts and feelings, to know how to share so that when they grow up, they will have a good future.

6. Want to be "served" during meals

Nowadays, there are many cases where children, although grown up, are still taken care of and served food by their parents.

Many children even have to be fed by someone before they will eat, so mealtimes last up to an hour every day.

Many parents are busy and want their children to eat quickly, so they feed them because they think it saves time.

However, this very action of parents is unintentionally forming the habit of relying on parental care in children.

If not changed soon, children will have difficulty learning to live independently later on, and will have difficulty having a bright future.
