There are many reasons why children are timid, and parents can only prescribe the right medicine if they find the reason. The possible reasons are as follows:
1, congenital factor. Parents are introverted and not good at communicating with others, and children inherit their characteristics. Parents should understand their children's personality, let them have a gradual adaptation process, and at the same time give them as much care and love as possible, and encourage them to interact with others. Parents should be role models for their children, and don't show timidity in front of them whenever something happens.
2. Environmental factors. Nowadays, most people live in commercial housing, and the closed environment of one household makes children lack living space to communicate with their peers, which leads to their withdrawn and timid personality.
3. Improper education. When children cry, parents often use "ghosts" and "monsters" to scare children; There are also some parents who, when their children want to go out to play, use words such as "there are liars outside, they will cheat you away" to dispel their children's thoughts and leave a shadow in their hearts; Others expect too much from their children. Once children do something wrong, they will be reprimanded or beaten, which will make them flinch for fear of failure. Some children are timid and lack courage. One of the most important reasons is that parents pay too much attention to their children and even spoil them. Every detail takes their place and deprives them of the opportunity to try.
4. Personal experience. When children express themselves confidently in front of their parents, they get ridicule and sarcasm instead of praise, which makes them very depressed; Or when the child has an injection, the pain of touching the skin makes him afraid to go to the hospital next time. ...
After finding out the reasons, we should pay attention to the methods of education. For parents, they should be patient and careful when educating their children. When children are crying, we should educate them positively and don't scare them. Children should not be treated as "adults" and should not be asked to do things beyond their power with too high standards. Parents should spend as much time with their children as possible, play with him and inspire him to play new tricks. If parents can't play with their children because of something, they can agree where to play and how long to play under the premise of paying attention to safety. It is worth noting that when parents want to stop their children from going out to play, they must not scare their children with terrible stories. When the child comes home, let him tell the story of the play, and then evaluate the child's behavior, praise more and criticize less, which not only exercises the child's courage, but also cultivates the child's oral expression ability. If conditions permit, it is also a good way to cultivate children's courage to ask them to help buy some odds and ends or borrow things from neighbors. When a child encounters difficulties and setbacks, parents should tell him an easy-to-understand story in due course, telling him how human beings are not afraid of difficulties.
When cultivating children's social skills, parents are advised to create more opportunities for their children to communicate with others. When parents teach their children some communication skills, they should let their children undergo various exercises. For preschool children, cultivating their brave qualities mainly means: learning to endure and face when falling or having minor injuries; Disputes between peers should be resolved by themselves; Cultivate and encourage him to speak and perform when there are many people; Actively participate in sports activities, etc.
For most one-child families, only by boldly letting children do things and exercising in life can children become brave and strong and gradually grow into a brave person.
