Whether a child is confident or not depends on his own personality! Another is that the growth environment is also related! Education at ordinary times! The child is not self-confident, and is naturally shy. He doesn't dare to express his opinions seriously when doing things! At this time, parents and elders need to guide correctly! So, how to improve children's self-confidence? What are the methods?
Ways to improve children's self-confidence:
1. Involve children in family decision-making
Let children participate in the decision-making of some things at home. The sense of ownership will make children feel important. In the process of participating in family decision-making, children can exercise their judgment and ability to do things, and then make further affirmation of themselves and enhance self-confidence.
2. Comfort children when encountering setbacks
Even in the event of the biggest failure, such as failing in the college entrance examination, children should not be severely taught or punished. On the contrary, special care and comfort should be given, and children should also be made to believe that there is always a way out by implication, and be enlightened by the story of a blessing in disguise to make them believe that sometimes bad things can turn into good things.
3. Find your child's strengths and encourage
This is not only effective for ordinary children, even excellent children need encouragement, and genius will wither due to lack of motivation. For those children with poor performance, it is more necessary to use this method to cultivate their self-esteem and self-confidence.
4. Tell the child that parents also make mistakes
If parents hide the truth that adults will also make mistakes from their children, children will find it difficult to accept their mistakes, or abandon themselves when something is not done well, so that children will never firmly establish self-confidence. Therefore, it is advisable to admit your own mistakes truthfully in the face of children. For example, if you lose the key and forget to turn off the tap, when children know that everyone may make mistakes, they will not panic too much because of a little behavioral mistakes, but will regard mistakes as a small episode in the progress, face up to mistakes and overcome shortcomings.
5. Cultivate children's interests and actively participate in cooperation
When a person does something he likes and knows well, he will be confident and take the initiative. As long as you take the initiative, you will focus on things. Because you are interested, you will forget your timidity. If you play with children, it will make them more fun. When doing something unfamiliar, we can inspire children to do it well, and find the same method from the experience of interesting things.
6. Confidence needs time to develop. You should prepare in advance and practice more
On the premise of ensuring the safety of children, let them try boldly without fear of making mistakes. Parents can show their children first, guide their children patiently, and never criticize them. No matter they play or study, if they are skilled, they will naturally have confidence. Don't rush for success, but step by step. Gradually, children will have their own suitable ideas and methods.
7. Take care of children's self-esteem. Parents' attitudes have a great impact on children
In addition to more companionship, we should also find the advantages of children, praise and affirm them in a timely manner. Even if children do something wrong, don't criticize them directly, especially in front of others. At this stage, children already need self-esteem. If a child has no face, he will be timid and timid. If he can't get affirmation from his most trusted parents, he will have inferiority complex.
