| Abstract | U suvremenom svijetu sve je češći problem agresivnosti posebice u djece predškolske dobi, no uz navedeno valja naglasiti da je pojava agresivnosti donekle prirodna i normalna. Raznim istraživanjima dovelo se do izvođenja različitih hipoteza tog složenog fenomena i njegovog nastanka koji se u radu pobliže opisuju. Sukobi čine sastavnicu ljudskog života što ih svakako čini neizbježnima i u vrtičkom okruženju, a za čije su ozračje i atmosferu odgovorni isključivo odgojitelji. Partnerskim i suradničkim odnosom odgojitelja i roditelja moguće je utjecati na cjelokupan djetetov razvoj stoga je od iznimne važnosti da se isti temelji na povjerenju, razumijevanju i međusobnom uvažavanju. Naime, najčešće djeca nisu isključivi krivci za svoje neposlušno ponašanje te bi se najprije roditelji i odgojitelji trebali zapitati što pogrešno rade u njihovu odgoju i što mogu promijeniti. U odgoju se mora odstupati od zlostavljanja i primjene fizičkog kažnjavanja odnosno dokazivanja moći jer uporabom nekaznenih metoda dijete će lakše i brže preusmjeriti agresivnost ka prosocijalnom ponašanju. Dobar i zdrav odgoj zahtijeva mnogo truda, vremena i ljubavi, a djeci je prijeko potreban. Ukoliko se ne zadovolje njegove primarne potrebe za privrženosti i prihvaćenosti posljedice mogu biti vidljive na različitim životnim područjima. Neadekvatnim odgojem posebno može biti narušen djetetov socioemocionalni razvoj što kasnije može uzrokovati izolaciju od strane vršnjaka, a potom i razvoj agresivnosti. Cilj rada je približiti i osvijestiti problem agresivnosti i njezine uzroke. Naglasak se stavlja na važnost uloge i suradnje odgojitelja i roditelja u prevenciji i smanjenju socijalno neprihvatljivih oblika ponašanja. Uz to se još analizira valjanost različitih metoda i postupaka kojima se roditelji i odgojitelji svakodnevno koriste u radu s djecom i na njih ostavljaju dugotrajne posljedice. |
| Abstract (english) | All around the world children are becoming more and more aggressive, although mild aggressiveness is somewhat common in preschool age children, aggressiveness that we are facing nowadays is becoming an epidemic. Researchers around the world came up with different conclusions and hypothesis regarding this issue. One of the thesis clearly states that confrontations are a common part of human behavior, and it is a natural part of growing up in kindergarten environment. In order to eliminate aggressive behavior, is to have better communication and partnership between parents and teachers. Children learn from grownups and adults therefore parents and teachers are the key part in their lives. When children are exposed to unhealthy environment they are most likely to copy that behavior when playing, learning and socializing with others. Furthermore, parents and teachers should participate in workshops in order to better serve their children, and teach them how to work with partners, in small groups and socialize with their peers. Physical punishments, and abuse will encourage children to have the same approach with their peers at school, as well as their home environment. Patience, rewards, and positive approach will encourage children to be nice, positive, and group oriented individuals. When children needs are met children will most likely become kind, successful, and lifelong learners. If child's needs are not met, a child could develop social and emotional insecurities, which could lead to isolation from peers and aggression. In conclusion we need to address the root issues of aggression in children. Teachers and parents need to work together in order to explore different methods to discourage negative behavior and promote positive behavior in young children. Positive approach, lots of play, hands on activities, and healthy environment will promote a healthy development in children. |
