Their problems must be solved, and the children do not try to impose their own neuroses, psychological advice. < 1. Many see themselves as introverts, but introverts, they were not always. Just as a child they tried to share with Mom and Dad their secrets and then found out that it is not interesting (heard about once, leave me alone and do not bother me) . Hence the habit to experience all the confidence and belief that they, and especially their problems - no one needs.

2. The sense of security that the child should receive a child - the main condition of his future mental health and life without neuroses.

But what kind of security can there be if the parents are aggressive or unpredictable predictably negative? They always bad. The atmosphere in the family - the expectation of disaster. right now Something's Got to Give. Fall, break it, the poison will die from the infection, "by KAMAZ get, he will smear on the asphalt," not to go to college - will work as a loader in the "Pyaterochka».

Once I had to explain to a 7-year old child that is bred to help him cope with psychotrauma. I say:

- You're in what class you learn?
- In the first.
- You do any of the girls like?
- Yes. Lisa.
- And I went to kindergarten?
- You met there with Lisa?
- No, there I was Lena.
- And where is she now?
- Well I'll explain! I'm already at the school where I know where Lena?
- Here. And dad had a lifetime to live with your mother, is that it?

Then he stopped crying, stopped receiving, went to his parents, who were waiting in the corridor and said, I understood everything went ...

7. Stability, comfort, trust - that should get the children from their parents in the first place. If the parents are aggressive, humiliated, criticized the child, he, of course, undermines the credibility of life in general and people in particular.

Stay if you do not close, then available to you could always call, share something, ask. And if the child something you said, try not to interrupt him and not to give advice, but just listen.

12. If you
