Things That Can Mentally Disturb Your Child


Things That Can Mentally Disturb Your Child

Studies show that children who are always mentally disturbed may develop mental illnesses or fall prey to drug or alcohol abuse in adulthood. Therefore, it is necessary for parents to avoid doing any activity that can disturb children mentally. Here are few things parents must know.

Have you ever noticed unusual behaviour in your children? Just like adults even they can face huge mental trouble due to various things happening around them. Home atmosphere, parent’s behaviour, various circumstances affects children’s mind and their overall wellbeing severely.
A child’s mind is very delicate and absolutely unaware of the unwanted incidents which generally occur in his or her surroundings. These all things can disturb him or her mentality which is sometimes hard to find out.
Violence, various types of abuses and many other things work as a slow poison for a child’s mental health. So, always notice the changes in your child’s behaviour to understand which problems he or she has been going through. Some things are discussed below for you to be aware of the situations that can disturb kids mentally.

Parent’s Fights

It is a normal thing that you get into simple fights with your spouse very often. Some general arguments though may not affect child’s mental health but a big fight day after day can harass your child’s mental health vastly. Your child may disrespect both of you and would like to stay away from parents that also cause multiple harms to the brains and make your child lonely.

Criticisms in Front of Others

Good appreciations always enhance your kid's self-esteem in contrary multiple criticisms in front of people can pull down your child’s confidence level which is very harmful to your child’s mental health. Children sometimes take surprising or violent actions due to such criticism. Words like ugly, worthless, idiot, jealous should not be used in front of people about your child’s nature which can affect your child’s brain.

Comparison with Other Children

Most of the parents do the mistake of comparing their children with other children. It should be kept in mind that all children are not equally talented in all aspects. Try not to criticise or compare your child’s ability with others as it creates huge pressure on their little brain which may cause mental illness later. Try to find out the field your child have a huge interest and motivate to improve the skills of his or her field of interest which provides good health to the child’s brain and may also beneficial for having a good future.

Violence

Violent acts are the most important things which should be avoided from the surroundings of kids. Try not to watch violent movies or any other violent daily soap along with your children. As their brain is in the developing stage it can easily leave a horrible impact on their mind. As the primary stages are the learning phases, children easily learn the things they see frequently.
If they watch brutal activities in the surroundings or through the television, they would easily get affected by such activities and most of the times try to do the same.

Too Much Strictness

It is good to be strict according to the situation to give proper lessons to children sometimes but all the times if you act rudely then it is absolutely harmful for your child’s mental health. Too much rigidity can develop fear in mind of your child and he or she may not reveal the problems to you. Due to fear of punishments or strict behaviour they would love to stay away from you which sometimes cause psychological problems slowly.

Physical or Verbal Abuse

This is the most harmful things which can affect your child’s mental health intensely. Children cannot share to anyone about the abusive activities. Abusive activities like physical or verbal abuse can make them more introvert and lonely. Your children may hate to meet new people or avoid everyone and may develop mental illnesses due to physical or verbal abuse. A world of imagination becomes their entire world due to huge mental illness. Such children may fall prey to substance abuse or grow-up into imbalanced individuals.
It is extremely important to keep children away from all the above things that can disturb them mentally. Kids who are disturbed mentally cannot grow-up in to well-balanced and successful individuals. Therefore, be alert about such things and avoid them for the wellbeing of your children.
