Many times, we see many children quietly doing things they love. Every time they break or shatter something, their parents suddenly realize what they are doing. There are also some children who are not only inseparable from their parents, but also afraid of this and that. This is the difference between children who are bold and those who are timid. So, what are the reasons why children are timid?
What are the reasons why children are timid
1. The influence of the lifestyle and genes of the original family on the development of children's personalities. During the process of growing up, children observe and imitate the words and actions of adults one by one. Children with introverted and sensitive temperament, including interactions between adults, emotional communication, and social interaction styles, often have a cautious and cautious personality, always looking back and forth, appearing shy and hesitant to try, making people feel timid and cowardly.
2. Due to the parenting style of parents, mothers often think that they are giving their children praise and encouragement, but often overlook whether such praise and encouragement have been expressed in words? Is it true to encourage rather than praise?
3. Lack of security, timidity, and lack of confidence in children stem from not having spent a good period of companionship. If the mother is not by the child's side during infancy, it can lead to a lack of security in the child, causing problems such as introversion, timidity, and lack of confidence.
4. Excessive expectations. In the process of educating children, parents always like to compare themselves with other children and have high expectations for their children. When a child fails to meet the requirements or expectations of their parents, and they are not clear about the reasons, they will feel that they are not doing well, causing the child to fall into deep self blame and inferiority complex.
What should I do if my child is timid
1. Starting from doing basic things, some children are naturally delicate and sensitive, so their courage is relatively small. To build children's confidence, they should be encouraged to do simple and easy things first. Once their confidence is cultivated, their courage will gradually increase.
2. Listen to your child's thoughts. There are reasons why children are timid. Parents should not scold their children too much, but understand their difficulties more. Parents should not expect their children from an adult's perspective, but rather think from the child's point of view.
3. Don't spoil children too much. Some children are timid because it's a bit caused by parents spoiling them excessively. Encourage children to do things within their abilities, exercise them more, and truly grow up. Only in this way can children have the courage to face everything head-on.
4. Parents should encourage their children more. Some children are already timid, afraid of the dark, and afraid of strangers. At this time, parents should encourage their children more, help them overcome their timidity, and make them feel that someone is helping them psychologically.
The process of growing up is to constantly break through the original self and establish a new self. However, this process requires the company and encouragement of parents for children to pass safely. Not only because children's hearts are fragile and unfamiliar with everything unknown, they may feel a sense of danger. Therefore, at this time, it is necessary for parents to take care of them and gradually build confidence.
