Causes of distraction

1. An overloaded psyche
   Constant streams of information coming from the media, the Internet and television overload the psyche. Add to this classes at school, a variety of clubs and other pastime that requires maximum dedication. All this depletes nerve cells, reduces concentration, provokes forgetting.
2. Features of age
   A child can forget a lot even when he is not yet able to fully control himself. Most often this happens in preschoolers who do not know how to concentrate on uninteresting events.
   
   
   
   
3. Hateful things
   Most often, the child loses things that are associated with unloved activities. Getting rid of a diary or pencil, the child seems to erase from life experiences associated with school. He may lose an item of clothing chosen by the mother or father, who the child presses, presses or simply does not like.

How to deal with it

1. After losing something, scroll through your head all day. Try to understand why a child could forget the same hat. Maybe he was too busy, overworked or late. Find the real reason.
   
   
   
   
2. Get advice from a neurologist, neuropsychologist or psychologist. Maybe the baby has some features of mental development, which should be corrected in time.
3. Make a clear schedule of the day, where the child will have time not only to study and “important things”, but also to fully rest, get enough sleep. Stick to this plan, it will help the child to become more organized.
4. Structure your child's life. If his room is cluttered, get rid of the extra stuff. Let there be fewer items, but they will be in specially designated places.
   
   
   
   
5. Do not set unrealistic goals and consider the possibilities of the child. Everyone wants to raise a genius, but not everyone has the opportunity. Follow the interests of the crumb and support if something does not work.
6. Train memory by reading and retelling stories, memorizing poems, solving crossword puzzles. Do it in a playful way, because the more interesting the process, the easier it is for the child to concentrate on it.
   
   
   
   
7. Trust the child more. Remember that he is already independent and can answer for many things himself. After all, if a student does not need to control anything and absolutely everything is decided for him, then why concentrate? Any mental function is worked out gradually, so constantly give the child part of the responsibility for himself.

Dispersion and inattention of the child They have their own causes that parents should discover and eliminate. And here you can not criticize or scold your child, because this will not help solve the problem, but rather aggravate it.
