Speaking of ADHD, many people will have pictures of children running around, jumping up and down, not attending classes, quarreling with others, fighting, poor academic performance and so on. For many people, children with ADHD are almost useless and very unpopular.
But this is not the case. In addition to these shortcomings, ADHD children have many advantages.
As parents, we should learn to look for advantages from children and actively cultivate them.
For example, in addition to being energetic, imaginative and hyperactive, many ADHD children have excellent memories of certain things, especially love labor, sports activities and performances, or are good at hand creation, painting and composition. I like fantasy and face challenges, and I can do a lot of work.
ADHD children have their own talents and specialties, but why don't many parents in China feel it?
Because all the advantages need careful discovery and active guidance from parents, targeted training should be carried out after discovery, and children's progress should be praised or rewarded in time.
What can parents do to better explore their children's bright spots?
① Establish "Four Hearts"
For parents with hyperactive children, this is quite challenging, because children will make trouble for parents in anything. For example: eating, sleeping, doing homework, packing, etc.
When parents are fed up with these troubles, the parent-child relationship will be damaged, and more seriously, it will affect parents' behavior guidance to their children.
Therefore, in family intervention, parents should first stabilize their emotions towards their children and show more patience, love, confidence and determination.
② Encourage and educate children.
In the process of daily life, children should be praised or rewarded in time for doing well, and let go of those who do badly, so that children can realize their mistakes and don't criticize too much, give them more confidence, enhance their sense of accomplishment and help them develop good habits.
③ Maintain high quality parent-child time.
The establishment of close parent-child relationship can not only strengthen parents' confidence, but also increase children's confidence in changing themselves.
In addition to bravely expressing your feelings in daily life, you need to set aside some time to accompany your children to read books, play games and chat every day.
Many parents regard grades and talents as the criteria for judging whether their children are excellent or not. Actually, they are too narrow-minded
Achievement is not the ultimate goal of treating ADHD in children, but the healthy growth of children is the focus we should pay attention to. I hope today's article can help everyone!
