Do you want your SHY child to SHINE
Then STOP these 3 SHs SHAMING “Why can’t you go and play like the other children?†This makes them ashamed of themselves and makes them even more shy. SHOVING Shoving or pushing a child to do what they are not able to do will decrease their confidence further and make them even more shy. SHELTERING If you are overprotective and keep speaking for your child when they need or want something they will remain shy. What should you do? Follow my neuroscience based ABCDEF formula to help your SHY child SHINE A – Accept Say – yes, I know it is scary. When your child feels understood – they will feel more confident. B – Build self-esteem Give your child lots of cuddles and kisses to show them that you love them. This will make them more confident. C – Clarify Instead of telling your child to be social, show your child how to socialize by doing it yourself. When they see that you are not afraid of new people and places, they will be brave too. D – Delight When your child moves away from you keep making eye contact and cheer them on with a big smile. E – Empower Teach your child basic skills like how to use the toilet, how to take off and put on shoes etc. so that they feel confident. Remember being SHY is not a bad thing. Having LOW CONFIDENCE is bad. Make sure you are not destroying your child’s confidence with the 3 SHs Type ABC and start building your child’s confidence NOW. Share this - so that those who are SHAMING, SHOVING and SHELTERING your child see this and STOP. Your SHY child will soon SHINE.
