Hello, dear moms, dads, and grandparents.
We're continuing with a new section on dealing with situations.
At the last meeting, I said that the school received a lot of questions about negative situations in families.
Today we will talk to you about the feelings and emotions of children. We noticed that a lot of questions came from parents on this topic and they want to know what can be done in this or that situation.
Let's look at a few of them:
1. A child and his mother are sitting in line at the doctor's office. Mom is on the phone, and the child is next to her with pieces of paper and pencils. To all of the child's questions, the mother answers: "Draw" and then goes back to her smartphone.
2. The child is crying in the street and can't calm down, the mother says, "I said, shut your mouth..."
3. The kid in a supermarket falls on the floor, demands a toy, screams that his mother is bad, his parents drag him out of the store and punish him in front of passersby.
4. My daughter is 4 years old, she is very active and agile, and when I talk on the phone she starts acting a little inadequate. She jumps on me from behind, hangs on my neck, screams, tries to get on my arms, etc. It annoys me terribly, and I have to punish the girl.
In all of the above examples, parents ignore their child's feelings and emotions.
Today, when we talk about the characteristics of modern children often mention the problem of emotional hunger (exhaustion) in science, this phenomenon is called Alexithymia ...
