How to carry out family mental health education for children

In the long run, children will lose their creativity and imagination. Many parents over-educate their children, and their strong repression distorts their personality.

Secondly, parents' educational methods should focus on encouragement. There are always reasons for failure, either subjective failure or objective problems. Parents should help their children to carefully analyze the crux of the problem, then prescribe the right medicine, take measures, give more care, and seize the opportunity to educate and guide.

Moreover, in the process of children's continuous efforts, parents should be good at discovering even small achievements and give different forms of praise and affirmation in time.

In the face of children's mistakes and failures, parents should establish a correct educational concept and adopt scientific educational methods to make their children move from "failure" to success as soon as possible.

Parents must create a harmonious family psychological atmosphere for their children's mental health education. The survey shows that children who grow up in a harmonious family show emotional stability, rich and delicate emotions, cheerful personality, unity, friendship and self-confidence.

However, in some families, couples are at odds, blaming each other, quarreling and getting angry frequently. Children living in this environment are not only unable to meet their own "safety" needs, but also prone to excessive timidity, anxiety, indifference, pessimism, loneliness and tension.

It can be seen that it is necessary for parents to create a warm and harmonious family psychological atmosphere for their children's mental health; Strive to improve their mental health.

Third, adopt democratic family education methods.

Suhomlinski said: "The intellectual atmosphere of the family is of great significance to the development of children. The general development and memory of children depend largely on the intelligence of the family, what adults read, what they think, and what influence they have left on their thoughts. "

Rousseau also said: "The fun of family life is the best antidote to the poison of bad atmosphere." It can be seen that good family education plays an important role in cultivating the educated next generation and resisting and purifying the negative cultural influence of society.

First of all, parents should respect them like adults. Although children are small, they also have strong self-esteem like adults. Parents should not take a rude attitude to put pressure on their children, or say something that hurts their hearts, let alone reprimand their children in front of everyone, so that they will lose their self-esteem and have disgust or rebellion.

Secondly, parents should strengthen communication with their children. Family members express their psychological activities calmly and directly in a customary way. Psychological openness is conducive to the development of children's cheerful and lively personality.

So as to avoid developing the child's withdrawn character, and only in this way can parents not feel "what's wrong with this child?" Situation. As a qualified parent, we should know our children, choose appropriate educational methods to teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and pay attention to the cultivation of children's mental health, so as to lay a solid foundation for cultivating social healthy talents.
