As a parent, it’s important to recognize indicators
of your child’s emotional distress. If you even suspect a concern, it’s
important to take action quickly and to not allow these concerns to continue. Most
likely they will not just naturally go away on their own. In fact, they’ll
often lead to other emotional concerns and behavior difficulties for you and
your child that will escalate as your child grows up.
Your child counts on you to recognize the indicators
of her emotional distress and to take action. This is an important time to
trust your intuition. If you feel perhaps you recognize a problem, there is a
good chance you are correct.
When you allow your child to continue struggling when
you see behaviors that concern you, he feels alone, unsupported, and insecure,
and perhaps even unloved. Your child will show you when something isn’t okay
emotionally, and he looks to you to know what to do about it.
Take action until the problem is resolved so you are
both happy and fulfilled.
