5 tips for a socially confident child –

Social anxiety happens, when children are afraid to talk, this can happen if the child is not getting enough time from parents or is afraid to talk to classmates, but we don’t want to know the causes of the disease, we are already aware of it, we need the cure, so here it is.

Talk, talk, talk: – There can be no better way than this to encourage your children, it can even sometimes work miracles with us and it is going to work for your kid.

You can take your child to a therapist, but personally speaking, your child will be more comfortable sharing his problems with you. Talking sessions can also be about simply, your child talking and you listening. The main point here is to create a two-way communication. We at NCPSSS  we encourage parents and children to talk with each other as this is a major step to remove social anxiety.

Meditation: – Regular Meditation can prove beneficial for your child in many ways; you can either meditate with your child or enroll him in New Choudhary Public School’s extra meditation classes if you are extra busy with your work.

Another tip is to take your child to places where you think he will feel anxiety, whenever your kid starts shaking or stuttering, you should hold his hand and practice breathing together, by facing his fears, your child can say bye-bye to social anxiety within a short period.

Self-healing: – Some kids are mature enough to self-understand certain things, if your child is one of those kids, he can get rid of social anxiety himself. All you need to do is give your kid a little push.

You can explain to your child the harmful effects that social anxiety has on mind and body, you can bring him books or videos of anxiety when your child knows how bad anxiety is; he will try to get rid of it himself.

Friendship: – Believe it or not, children are more confident with friends than parents. Thus allowing your child to bring his friends home is the best way to help him get rid of social anxiety.

You might like it, when your child brings his friends home and might be very strict about it, but remember that if he stays alone at home, it is going to do more harm than being helpful. When your child indulges in various activities with his classmates, he is going to become more confident over time.

Professional help: – On a highly unlikely chance that the above methods don’t work, we would recommend you to take your child to a professional. We are not saying that it’s a substitute for home treatment, but it is your only hope if the above methods fail.
