1. Hug your boy more
Mistake: The little boy who was born more than a month ago has begun to look around, but he seldom focuses on his mother. He probably doesn't need his mother to hold him.
Fact: Boys need more hugs. Before the age of one and a half, you can't spoil your son too much. He spends less time looking at your eyes, seems to rely less on you, and is easily attracted by other things. He likes to look at moving objects more than your face. But in fact, boys' brains grow slower than girls', so their emotions are more fragile than girls', and they need more care. His skin needs to be satisfied through touch to get enough security. He wants you to take him around, so hold him more.
2. Understand boys' risky behavior
Mistake: Boys are naughty. Take him out to play. He always likes to do some dangerous actions, such as climbing and jumping from high places. The mothers stopped their behavior because they were worried about his safety.
Fact: Chinese people have traditionally asked children to be quiet and always try to restrain their actions. In fact, you should always think that our little boys are hunters in ancient times. They need broad space and free action. They rely on sports and climbing to develop their brains healthily. Mom and Dad don't tie him down. You need to protect his safety as far as possible without interfering with him, and believe in his natural spatial judgment. At the same time, encourage your little hunter to take part in more sports and run outdoors. The comprehensive experience of various senses will bring him more healthy development.
3. Let the boy enter the collective
Myth: Most families now have only one child. For the sake of love and safety, many mothers do not like to let children play at home or outside.
Fact: Boys are naturally social animals. They are naturally gregarious. They learn to socialize, learn love, learn life, learn responsibility and morality, and find their own belonging in groups.
If the boy did not learn to deal with the relationship in the group when he was a child and lacked group awareness, he would not know how to develop good interpersonal relationships in the future and would not be able to maintain harmonious relationships with others. They are looking for a group that can relax themselves, give him tasks, and make him proud. Parents should appropriately encourage them to participate in competitive activities, such as sports, so that they can find out who they are. Parents can also design challenging tasks so that they can learn ability, skills and sense of responsibility in a challenging and interesting atmosphere.
4. Understand the boy's stubbornness
Myth: A 2-year-old boy always wants to climb a tall fairy tale castle. But he is too young. Mom told him you can't play this now. But the boy didn't seem to hear it. He was still looking at the castle. The mother dragged the child away.
Fact: If you can't do something, you must try it. This is the role of testosterone. From infancy, boys did not accept setbacks as calmly as girls, nor did they like to accept help from others. Usually, when he clearly knows that he can't reach it, but can't accept it emotionally, he still has to keep trying. Boys deal with their emotions more slowly than girls. At this time, my mother should trust our little hunter's judgment ability, and give him enough time to adjust his mind. After he accepts the fact, he will leave by himself. But if you drag him away or force him to accept your help, he will have a real sense of frustration
