Teacher Wang in the office often lets her daughter watch cartoons in the office. Teacher Wang found that every time she watched cartoons, she seemed not to hear when talking to her. Several times later, Teacher Wang could not help losing her temper and asked loudly, “Did you not hear the call just now?” You pretend you can’t hear! ]
In fact, this kind of situation often happens to preschool babies. Babies don’t like to take a reason. Is it pretending not to hear, deliberately ignoring people, or is there other reasons in what? Let’s talk about it today.
Why does the baby [pretend to be inaudible]?
1. Constraints on attention development
Preschool children will focus on the fresh and interesting things around them. Compared with Teacher Wang’s cry, those cartoons with bright pictures and rich contents can attract the baby’s attention more.
Unlike adults who can chat while watching TV, preschool children are not able to distribute and divert their attention smoothly. They can only focus on one thing at a time. Therefore, they cannot listen to your speech while watching cartoons, nor can they respond quickly after hearing your words.
2. Parents have not set a good example,
Recently, Mother Stone complained to me that her son often listens to her words selectively. After observing her daily contact with her child, I found that she always brushes her circle of friends while perfunctorily answering [er] [oh] when the child calls her, and sometimes even simply does not answer or scolds the child for looking for trouble.
However, in fact, parents do not respond to their children’s calls, and children will gradually imitate their parents’ behavior of not responding in time.
3. Failure to establish [timely response] rules
Preschool is a critical period for the formation of good behavior habits. If you don’t set up the rules of “parents shout, don’t delay” and tell your child how to respond to your parents properly, you will make your baby think that your behavior is not wrong. In the long run, your baby is easy to form the bad habit of not listening carefully to others.
3 Ways to Learn Your Baby to Answer in Time
1. Don’t talk to babies when they are focused on something
Preschool children cannot effectively distribute and divert their attention due to the limitation of their attention development. Parents should first understand their children’s behavior and do not talk to them when their children are focused on something. If there is something necessary to say, they can walk up to their children and communicate face to face with them.
Parents should not use reprimand language or disciplinary actions to make their children yield. This rough method will not only cause harm to their children’s psychology, but also make it difficult to achieve long-term results.
2. Lead by example and respond to children in time.
Parents should set an example, give back their children’s needs sensitively and in a timely manner, actively pay attention to their children’s performance, and let their children feel their parents’ love and respect. Over time, children will follow their parents and actively respond to the cries of others.
3. Set up rules to clearly guide children how to respond.
When a child does not respond for the first time, parents must correct it in the first place. Tell your child gently and firmly:
People call you, you don’t promise is not a good baby.
In addition, it is necessary to inform the child in detail that when his parents or others call him, he should first put down the matter at hand, respond in time and ask [Is there anything about what? ].
The baby’s non-response behavior is not only the limitation of his attention development, but also the [revenge] on his parents or the lack of rules. No matter what kind of reason, treasure parents don’t have to worry, as long as you sort out the reason and suit the remedy to the case, I believe you will soon be able to cultivate your child into a good baby who can respond in time.
