It can lead to depression

Answer 2

Well, if the parents are always mad about something or someone, their kids could get mad easily. My parents dont fight with each other, they just get mad alot and have a short fuse, and my brother is 21 and is ALREADY on high blood pressure medicine. Parents are a great impact on a kids life. Even if the kid doesnt know it, they act alot like their parents.

Answer 4

family stress will cause a child to act out in an unproductive manner to gain attention since they know no other way to be seen or heard. they sometimes become aggressive and violent toward other children, they bite, throw temper tantrums. they are very defiant of authority figure due to being fearful of  punishment which is some times the only attention they receive at home

Answer 5

I work at a school with first graders.  They are 6 to 7 years old and at this age they want attention and they just want to be accepted by their family.  It is easy to see the children who are having problems with stress at home because they act out in a way that will get the teachers attention and it doesn't matter if they get into trouble.  Family stress takes a big tole on children and it hurts them mentally, and emotionally especially at school.  You don't want to put a child through this.  I see it everyday and we just don't have the kinds of children we did about 10 years ago.  it is really said.

Answer 7

Great family stress can affect the phsycological and social well-being of a preson especially to children in their developing years. Notably, they can grow into adults being either rebellious, lonesome, selfish, and it could even lead to the idea of drug addiction or worse, suicide because of depression they have felt or something that they think they lack during their childhood. The present and future behaviour of the child can vary depending on how he copes up with the stress. How he or she reacts to the situation will stay in his or her behaviour if there will be no parental supervision and can lead to family problems.

Answer 8

Some kids would act out and seek attention.Others would withdraw .It would all depend on the nature of  the child.

Answer 9

I have a 4 year old and sometimes I get frustrated.  I sometimes become aware that I am yelling or getting angry in front of her.  It really does affect them a lot.

I notice that when I try not to show my anger or show that I am frustrated and talk with her calmly her behavior becomes much better.  She gets in trouble less at daycare and listens much better.  She is 4 and I realize that her and I should not be arguing like adults(which sometimes happens).

The more us adults show our stress and show aggression, the more the child acts out.
