HOW SCARY IS TOO SCARY?

          I remember every Halloween season the haunted house at school, full of  spooky decorations It was  in charge of high scholars dressed in terrify costums, It was a challenge and fear experience,  what about the nightmares and impact. According to Steams and Timothy Haggerty (1991)- the parents’   mission is  help  the children to  control the anxieties caused  and  teaches them to deal with their feeling.  

             

         Dr. Benjaming Spock was recommend ovoid scare tactics and punishments as a method to hold their children in good behavior in stead Dr. Benjaming advice the parents to use and practice the technique  "tends to suggest techniques like breathing with your children."

          Now days be a fearful guy  is not a good option for those whom want success. An individual must be able to catch every opportunity without fears. So the behaviorist urged the parents to encourage  children to face their anxieties and apprehension. “success is for brave people”.
