CHILD PROBLEMS

ROUTINE OF DAILY HEALTHY HABITS

The issue of child safety depends to a great extent on the relationship with the parents.

“It is important for parents to pay attention to child safety issues. Many people think that children have problems, but for the child what is happening in her life is significant. And parents should keep that in mind. The first and main advice is to establish a trusting relationship with your child. Unfortunately, they are quickly lost when the child sees that no one is interested in her life. If there is trust, then everything else can be formed. The next factor is information. We need to talk not only about what can be dangerous or unpleasant situations and people, but also that it can happen with us. It is necessary that the child is constantly told about everything and how it happened at school. Especially the first two or three months when school adaptation is in progress. In such conversations, parents can already see if there are problems and react, ”said Fartushny.

The expert noted that in any case, discussing with the child the issue of safety, it is not necessary to scare her. It is also worth considering age characteristics. For example, young children can be asked to play a game and come up with a kind of "password" that a child can tell if a stranger has invited her to go somewhere.

In addition, the first-grade child should be explained how much time and time they will spend in school, be told about safety rules and when to call their parents. It is also important for the child to know and remember the parents' phone. Because, as Fartushny stressed, adults now rely too much on phone numbers being stored in the gadget's memory, and often children don't know how to contact a relative if the phone is lost.

In addition, parents should know how the child responds to their surroundings, both at school and outside the home, with whom they are friends, to communicate with their peers, and to respond promptly and provide assistance to the child on certain signs.

“Parents should pay attention to what relationships a child has at school with teachers, peers, and outside of school. Unfortunately, sometimes parents do not pay attention to it. With smaller children, it can be more difficult than with older ones. Therefore, first of all, parents should worry if the child is nervous, shut down, does not want to go to school, does not want to leave home. That is, she feels the aggression of this world and does not want to communicate with him. Another manifestation is when a child begins to behave aggressively towards parents, peers, friends. This is one of the manifestations of the inadequacy of interaction. Worse, when a child closes in and goes into virtual interaction with the world, ”said a psycho-physiologist.

The expert stressed that the issue of safety is first and foremost a matter of raising and caring for your child. According to him, unfortunately, many parents now believe that the school provides both educational process and education. Instead, it is the habits and skills that are formed in the family that determine the behavior of the child much more, including in dangerous situations.
