Children begin to be offended at an early age, but quickly forget about offenses, however, from 5-6 years old, a child is able to remember offenses for a long time.
This can be a problem, as the child may be offended even by something that is not worth paying attention to. Some parents begin to praise the child more, some leave everything as it is, which can only aggravate the situation. This article is for parents who really want to help their child.
In order to help, you need to find out what are the reasons for resentment:
- Team rejection. The child needs attention, he wants to be part of the team, to participate in events, but he is not accepted. This can be a reason for resentment.
- The child may take offense at teasers, nicknames, etc., for example, the parents themselves, as a joke, somehow called, but the child took it seriously.
The child tries to manipulate the parents with the help of his grievances. In such a situation, most parents behave in a wrong way. They begin to feel sorry for and praise their child and this only makes the situation worse.
To make it easier for the child to live in the future, it is better to teach him not to keep everything to himself and not to accumulate negative from offenses. It is worth letting the child speak out, explain how he feels. This will help the child learn to express their opinions and emotions correctly and free themselves from negativity.
In no case should a child be compared with other children. If you constantly tell your child that someone has better grades, someone behaves better, achieves better results and similar things, you can raise a child to be insecure.
