Advertisements
Solution
- Denial: Refusing to accept the diagnosis, believing that the youngster will “grow out of it” or that the problem does not exist.
- Blame: Accusing the youngster of not trying hard enough or of being lazy or unmotivated.
- Overprotection: Excessive shielding of the child from obstacles can impede the development of coping and problem-solving abilities.
- Frustration and anger: Expressing anger or irritation with the youngster for their difficulties might harm the child’s self-esteem and confidence.
- Shame or embarrassment: Feeling ashamed about the diagnosis may lead to avoiding discussions about the child’s needs or failing to seek appropriate support.
- Comparisons: Making negative comparisons to siblings or peers might reduce the child’s self-esteem even more.
