Anger Management Worksheets
Anger is known by everyone. Everybody has felt it: whether as an annoyance or as full fledged rage. It is completely normal, healthy human emotion. It is dangerous when it gets out of control and turns destructive. It may lead to problems in your personal relationships and at workplace. Overall quality of your life is affected.
Everybody in society is experiencing stress in our lives due to demands of our jobs, family situations and economic conditions. The ability to avoid inappropriate expression of anger is a crucial skill to living healthy, happy life. We feel angry when things are not going the way we want them to, feeling we are not treated fairly, someone doing abusive to us, not feeling respected by others.
Children learn how to express anger by the examples that we give them. They learn from our verbal statements and behavior. It is difficult for a child to control their anger as they will slowly learn the different norms of society. If parents don't have discipline of anger control, they will never able to teach their children. If parents fail to teach their children how to cope up with their anger, the children will become angry teens and then troubled adults.
Anger management in children will give better results if you start early. This can be started when a child displays anger. He should be explained how to express his anger appropriately with us as adults. Children's angry responses may vary individually but they are common as physical aggression such as hitting and kicking, crying, screaming and temper tantrums, verbal aggression such yelling and swearing, avoidance tactics, running away or giving parents and friends the "silent treatment".
Worksheets are given as regular homework for children, which may contain the anger management quiz or some questions describing some situations. Children have to answer how they will respond to such typical situation. Such worksheets are developed by many anger management coaching centers. They give advantage of practicing and changing the behavioral change.
Worksheets for adults are also given by some anger management centers. Afterwards interpretation of the answer sheet is done by the counselor.
