Yes, anger is just like another emotion and it’s natural. It is a fundamental human emotion that everyone experiences at some point in their lives. Anger serves as a biological and psychological response to perceived threats, injustices, frustrations, or violations of personal boundaries,but it is impacting a person himself or others then it is a matter of concern which needs to be addressed.

To understand if the behaviour is of significance or not, and if it requires any further intervention, we focus on two things (1) How frequently the behaviour is happening, (2) How intense is it compared to the children of the same age around you. Also, where is the behaviour happening, is it only in the home, or in school, or other settings (context). Is it happening in the presence of a particular person or more and how long is this happening. These questions will answer if the behaviour is very significant. Anger is a very common and natural response. However, as the child grows, he/she learns to manage the expression of anger in a more acceptable manner. If the anger or irritability is the result of other underlying issues, commonly as any emotional disturbance then it needs to be further clarified. If the behaviour persists for a long duration (let's say 3-4 months),  and if that impacts his performance or denies to follow the conduct, it's better to consult any Mental Health Professional for further evaluation.
Next Steps
Monitor his behaviour Reach out to any Mental Health Professionals if needed
Health Tips
Work on effective communication, don't engage in hitting, shouting, blaming behaviour (as it has shown to increase the anger). Take 15 minutes a day out and listen to his day, difficulties. Help in problem solving. Discuss if he faces any difficulties in school. Wait patiently for him to speak. If he expresses anger towards you, instruct him to express verbally without shouting (Do it calmly but clearly and only specific instructions, avoid using lengthy sentences).

Hello Mam, as you mentioned, your son is 14 years old, which is a teenage and in this age, we feel many changes due to puberty. We see ourselves and others from a different perspective and want to get things done according to our ways.
Next Steps
I would suggest you to sit with him and talk about his days. How does he feel like? Is everything going fine among his friend’s circle? In this age, children feel shy, sharing things with the parents because of many reasons, so I would suggest you to sit with him and probe him.
Health Tips
You can connect with the counsellor if you feel he needs external support to modify his behaviour.

Hi, It's not uncommon for children, especially during certain developmental stages, to exhibit increased irritability and anger. Factors such as hormonal changes, social pressures, and the challenges of expressing emotions can contribute to this behavior. Additionally, stressors such as changes in routine, family dynamics, or academic pressures may play a role. It's important to approach your son with empathy and understanding, as he may be struggling to articulate his feelings. Open communication can help him feel supported and encourage him to express what he’s going through. If the behavior persists or escalates, it might be beneficial to consult a paediatrician or a child psychologist for further guidance. Creating a safe environment for him to express himself and providing coping strategies can also help mitigate these feelings.

It’s common for children to go through phases where they feel more irritable or angry, but if this behavior is frequent or intense, it might be helpful to explore potential underlying causes. These could range from stress, changes in routine, frustration over unmet needs, or even health issues like sleep problems or dietary changes. Emotional, social, or academic pressures can also contribute to such behavior. If this persists, observing any triggers or patterns could offer clues. It might also be helpful to gently talk to your son about his feelings or consult a pediatrician or child psychologist to rule out any deeper concerns like anxiety or ADHD. Would you like suggestions on how to manage or support him through this?

Hello, yes teenagers tend to show anger in their behaviour. However, it is important to address it in the right manner, Here are some ways parents can help teenagers manage anger issues: Stay calm Avoid responding with anger, and instead try to stay relaxed. Use a calm voice and open body language. Separate feelings from behavior Let your teen know that it's okay to feel angry, but not okay to hurt themselves or others. Give them space Allow your teen some time to calm down, perhaps by listening to music or talking to friends.

Hi dear concerned, It’s common for children and teenagers to go through phases of anger and irritability as part of their development, especially as they deal with changes in their bodies, social dynamics, and increased academic or social pressures. However, if this behavior is more intense, frequent, or prolonged than usual, it could indicate underlying stressors or emotional challenges.
Next Steps
Here are a few things to consider: 1. Environmental Stress: Changes at school, friendships, or family dynamics can contribute to irritability. 2. Hormonal Changes: If your son is in his preteen or teenage years, hormonal fluctuations can intensify emotions. 3. Communication: Sometimes, kids struggle to express or understand their emotions and frustrations, which can manifest as anger. 4. Possible Underlying Issues: If the behavior is prolonged, it might help to explore if he’s facing any particular difficulties, like anxiety or stress.
Health Tips
Encouraging open, non-judgmental communication can help, and creating a routine with activities that promote calmness, such as exercise or mindful practices, might reduce these intense emotions. If this pattern continues or disrupts his daily life, considering a chat with a mental health professional could be beneficial.
