how can i deal peacefully with my three naughty kids of 7, 4 and 2?
Answers:
I had four kids in a little over four years, so I know the stress that you're feeling. Above all else, pray for your kids. Physically lay hands on them and pray for them. If you don't know how, call a local church and talk with the pastor. Not all pastors are the same, so you might need to call several before you find one that will give you the answer that you're looking for.
Second, put on some calm music. Have it playing all day long. Not only will it affect their behavior, it will have a calming affect on your mood too.
Third, monitor what they're watching on TV. Their behavior might be mimicking what they're seeing on TV.
Last, set boundaries. Let them know what is appropriate and inappropriate behavior. Decide in advance what will be the appropriate discipline or reward for certain behaviors and stick with it. This way you won't lose control when they do something bad. Children need consistency. Do what you say and say what you mean. Don't act out of anger.

with lots of patience and prayer. hopefully they will get over it in a few years, just wait and see
You think you got it bad? My mom has 8 kids. All living at home!
Should have thought of birth control. The world is way over populated already. Naughty? They live and learn by example.

Without more details, it is difficult to make any suggestions. Have you read any good parenting books? I would suggest any of the books by Faber and Mazlish (_How to talk so kids will listen and listen so kids will talk_ is a geat place to start). They have various suggestions for different ways to deal with disciplining children without resorting to violence.
Being a parent is not that easy, though i only have son who's seven but seems like I have 3 kids.In terms of dealing him in a manner where I need to be calm and be more patient. There are times that I'm losing my temper and I have to beat him. I Just manage to relax and always take in control that with kids like them being a good parent to them is more rewarding when you see your siblings grow up to be like you
Honestly? I don't know how.
I've got 4 and 2 too..and I got headache everytime they fight..OMG..That's normal don't worry.
Give them as much time possible, and if your work, coordinate your working hours with your husband, and let him deal with them for a certain period of time. and if you dont work, try to spend as much time as u can, especially in school activities. But dont forget, u must have "ur" time.........try to have someone babysit, and go out with our husband and spend quality time........a lot of people have it twisted, just because u have kids, doesnt mean that u cant have fun, try ur best to get a babysitter and go have fun with ur husband.......u only live once..
give them two chances by telling them no.. when they dont listen the third time, then take the toy away. if its not a toy, create a naughty chair.. Ok you wont listen, you get 5 minutes on the naughty chair.. Throwing and breaking toys, take the toys away and put them where your child can see them but cant reach, tell them they can have them again tomorrow if they behave. Not eating, Ok you get nothing else til that dinners gone. If you wake up hungry in the night, i aint gonna give you anything. And all your sweets and chocolate, etc are going in the bin. My little one is as good as gold now, good luch
time outs and take away tv time and games they love
sit them down and set some easy rules in the house.
use time out
redirect rude talk.. use things like, was there a nice way to ask that?
reward good behavior with words, activities and what ever else seems appropriate,
Model the behavior you want to see.
I have two children> I understand how hard it can be to be equally attentive to each of them in the same manner. What i have learned is to treat each child according to their characterictics. At the same time make sure the discipline, and guidance is there. And most importantly stay consistant!
Its easy to lose your cool with all the adult things going on but we as parents should learn how to seperate the two. Its a process for both the children and the parents!
