If you do this too, then be careful because doing so can make your child mentally ill. We are not saying this, but a new study has revealed.
Being strict has an effect on mental health – study
The strictness exercised by the parents can affect the mental health of the children. In a recent research conducted by the University of Cambridge and Dublin, it has been revealed that if parents talk strictly to the child, then their mental health can be damaged. More than 7500 children were included in this research. Being strict in front of children can cause mental disorders in them. Researchers observed in a group of children that 10 percent of these children were at high risk of mental health problems. In these children, the habit of facing the strictness being taken by the parents was more.
However, it has also been proved in the research that not only the strictness of the parents but physical health, gender or social status can also be responsible for the deterioration of the mental health of the children. Discipline imposed by parents can have a greater effect on mental health in children above 9 years of age than in younger children.
