Today’s fast pace is as important as children’s emotional strength is, the more difficult it is. Education, social media, competition and home environment affect children’s thinking and feelings.
If children learn to handle emotions since childhood, then they not only learn to fight stress but also become confident. For this, parents have to adopt a little understanding and the right way at the right time. Let’s know the 3 easy parenting tips that can make your child emotionally strong.
Children’s words can seem small or meaningless at times, but they are very big for them. When the child is sharing your trouble or happiness with you, listen to it carefully. Make him realize that his words matters. Let him speak completely before interrupting or advising in the middle. This will learn to speak openly and will not make a habit of suppressing emotions.
Often we say to children, “Get silent”, “don’t get angry” or “boys should not cry”. But these things make the child weak inside.
Teach them that it is important to feel every feeling. Then slowly tell them how to handle these feelings correctly. As if you get angry, take a deep breath, sit alone or write on paper.
The best way to explain emotions to children is through sports, painting or stories. Tell the character’s feelings in the stories like “Why is this girl sad?” While playing, ask, “How are you feeling at this time?” This makes the child gradually learn to identify and show his emotions.
