Shame on the child that runs away from the family festive table, not listening to adults

Young children at the adult table feel uncomfortable. No wonder children get bored and want to leave the table early. Some parents try to instill the habit of children gathering family at the table, while others do not pay attention to the fact that the child is superfluous at the table with adults. What's up?



To the child likes to gather with grandparents at the table, celebrate family holidays and enjoy pastime with relatives, you need to try a little. Parents should understand that if they want to see a child nearby, they should not deprive the child of attention.



Often adults even at the birthday of the baby begin to talk about things that the baby does not understand. He gets bored, lonely and the child wants to go to the nursery. Should I send my child to another room and continue the fun without him?

Psychologists say that such events should be thought out in advance. If the parents decided to invite guests to the holiday, it is good if the guests come with children. Then children can organize a children's table and not worry about being bored.



If it concerns relatives, the child can be present with relatives. Everyone needs to pay attention to a small person. It is necessary to try to discuss such topics that are familiar to the child, then he will be able to express his point of view and will be interested in communicating with adults. Parents teach their children family values.



When children are sitting at an adult table, both they and adults must adhere to certain rules. Adult conversations should be decent, and children should not interrupt adults when they speak. Guests should be warned that there will be a child at the table, so do not stay late. It is better not to forbid the child to sit at the common table, otherwise the baby will always be drawn to the forbidden fruit. On the contrary, it is better to allow him to be present at the table with everyone, and, at best, in 20 minutes, or even earlier, the child will get bored with the society of ancient people and he will go to play in another room.



If the child is very small, before the arrival of guests, you should think about whether it is better to leave it with parents for a while. If the baby will be interested in communicating with grandparents, then the child will be uncomfortable with strangers and their conversations, and this should be taken into account.



In order for the child to become part of family holidays, he must be attached to cooking, cleaning, decorating housing. You can instruct the child to clean vegetables for salad or allow to decorate the tree. Then at the table the topic of conversation will appear by itself. You can pay attention to the baby and praise him for helping his parents so hard. And children love to repeat after adults, it is only necessary to offer to interfere with dough or decorate a salad.



To understand whether a child should stay at an adult table, remember yourself as a child. I don't think you always sat down until the end. And if the child decides to play by himself, it means that he can entertain himself. Isn't it? Do you let your children sit at the adult table?
