Depressed all the year round.
If children are often unhappy for no reason, it is probably because of inferiority.
Excessive shyness
It is normal for children, especially girls, to be a little shy, but if they are too shy (including never afraid to sing in front of children, never want to appear in public, never afraid to meet strangers, etc.). ).), they may have a strong inferiority complex hidden in their hearts.
Refuse to make friends
Generally speaking, normal children like to associate with their peers and attach great importance to friendship. The vast majority of children with inferiority complex are not interested in making friends or making friends, or are regarded as "scourges".
It's hard to concentrate.
Children with a strong sense of inferiority often have difficulty in concentrating when studying or playing games, or can only concentrate for a short time. This is because the "lingering" inferiority complex is at work.
Always suspicious
Children with low self-esteem are often very sensitive to the comments of their parents, teachers and friends, especially the criticism of others, which makes them feel unacceptable and even disgusted. In the long run, it may develop to the point of "paranoia", always suspecting that others don't like it, or blaming themselves out of thin air.
Pursue excessive praise
Although children with low self-esteem feel inferior, they often seek praise from their parents and teachers more abnormally than normal children, and may take dishonest and inappropriate ways, such as cheating and cheating in exams.
Degrade and envy others.
Another allergic reaction of children with inferiority is that they often belittle and envy others, such as gnashing their teeth because the teacher at the next table praised them, and even can't sleep at night. Psychologists believe that this is a channel they designed to relieve their psychological pressure caused by inferiority complex, although it often doesn't work.
Will only be pessimistic and disappointed
A large number of children with low self-esteem tend to give up on themselves and do not seek progress. They think that they can't do it anyway, and their efforts are in vain. What's more, it may also show self-abuse behavior, such as deliberately running around the street, going out alone in the middle of the night, and refusing to see a doctor and take medicine when you are sick. This seems to be deliberately putting yourself in danger or trouble. If I am accused by my parents, I will use "I feel inferior anyway" as an excuse.
Avoid competition, competition
Although some children with low self-esteem are eager to get ahead in exams, sports competitions or entertainment competitions, they all lack the necessary confidence in their abilities, so they conclude that they will never win. Therefore, most children with low self-esteem try to avoid participating in any competition. Although some of them reluctantly signed up for the competition with the encouragement of others, they often chickened out when they formally entered the competition, and were willing to "desert".
Poor language expression ability
According to experts' statistics, more than 80% children with inferiority complex have poor language skills. Or they stutter, or their expressions are incoherent, or they lack emotion or vocabulary, and so on. Experts believe that this is because a strong sense of inferiority is likely to hinder the normal work of the system responsible for language learning in the brain.
Can't stand setbacks or illness.
Most children with low self-esteem can't bear the pressure brought by negative factors such as setbacks and diseases like normal children. Every time they encounter a small failure or illness, they are "extremely painful", and sometimes they even feel uncomfortable about moving, the death of their loved ones, the illness of their parents and other accidents.
