Unwillingness to share his toys, clothes and even food have noticed their children, many parents. Often mothers have to blush for his crumbs on a visit or on the playground when a little greedy peers shouts, "Do not give!" And hides behind the shovel or car. Or hides the house from his brother's toys (sister), absolutely not wanting to share things even "for a short while, just to play." What are the reasons?

For the 2nd year baby is deliberately utters the word "mine!" and stop talking about yourself, loved one, in the 3rd person. This means that the start of the first serious stage of psychological development of the child. Now he forms representation about himself and begins to set, sharing "their" boundaries and "foreign". The word "mine" of the child - a symbol of his personal space, including all that is dear to the crumbs. This is a natural process of the formation of the psyche and the emergence of the concept of "alien". Accordingly, and to scold the kid at this age of greed should not be.
For the 3rd year baby acquires the ability to say "no." In the absence of such a child's ability to be tough "balancing" at an older age. Inability to say "no" indulgence leads to the vagaries of the people around them in their own detriment, to borrowed money, which then months (or even years) are asked to return back and to other consequences. Learn to say "no" - it is important. But it is also important to teach the child to accurately track side - where it is a natural reaction to the actions of others turns into greed.
After 3 years It begins a new stage of socialization. It comes to the fore communication. Toys and personal belongings are tools out this chat. For the baby becomes aware that sharing - is to gain people and greedy - so turn them against themselves.
At the age of 5-7 years greed - an internal disharmony kid, indicating internal problems. Parents should "dig deeper" and find out, first of all, in their methods of education.
