Giving young children strong psychiatric medications or exposing them to prisons or jails is not a recommended approach for preventing aggression. Instead, helping children find more productive and prosocial ways to channel their aggressive tendencies can be more effective in preventing long-term problems with aggression. This can involve interventions such as social skills training, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and anger management techniques. Allowing children to experience what it is like to be threatened and bullied is not an appropriate or effective solution.
