During the development of a child, parents always want their child to have superior intelligence. Especially during the sensitive period between the ages of one and nine, some behaviors may hinder a child's intellectual development. In this article, we will discuss three potential factors that may thwart a child's intellectual development and provide parents with suggestions to help their children grow up more soundly.
1.Behaviors that erode self-confidence.
If children are always failing in the process of playing, they may lose self-confidence, feel incompetent, and develop a fear of new things. Therefore, when parents play with their children, they should be given the opportunity to experience the joy that comes with success as a way to boost their self-esteem.
2.The so-called "cramming" education method does not respect the child's developmental rules, such as making the child memorize knowledge that he cannot understand, although it seems that the child will change in a short period of time"Clever", but it actually affects their intellectual development. This can also lead to a dislike of learning and a loss of interest in learning. Parents should follow the pace of their child's development"Edutainment"to stimulate their desire to learn.
3.It is customary to say that children are stupid, and every word parents say may affect their children. Frequently calling your child "stupid" may make them really believe that they are stupid. Therefore, parents need to pay more attention to their wording, give their children more praise and affirmation, and let them believe that they are up to the challenge.
In general, in the process of raising children, parents should pay attention to their children's psychological construction and intellectual development, and avoid the above-mentioned behaviors that may cause negative effects. At the same time, establish good communication with children, understand their needs and ideas, and do our best to provide love and support. In this way, we can help children develop healthily and become confident and intelligent people.
