Children need to learn at a young age how to control emotions, especially anger. A child who does not learn to control anger can become a destructive adult with numerous issues with the law and society. Hence an important aspect of parenting is properly teaching a child how to control anger. Sometimes reprimands need to be more strict but there are also numerous other ways to teach a child coping mechanisms to control anger.
