Intimidating something or someone, the parent makes it clear to the child that he – the parent-is not the main one, not strong, and in general, he will not be able to stand up for his child in front of a certain babaika.
At this moment, the child has a horror in his head – up to a certain time, his father and mother are the strongest people in the world for him and can do anything. And then some babaika appears and the mother calmly gives him the baby?
The child is very scared. In addition to the destroyed authority of his parents, which is painful in itself, he develops an increased sense of fear.
Yes, all children are different, one will not be very afraid, and the other will remember all his life. In pedagogy, cases are described when children's legs were paralyzed from fear. But what an educational effect!
