Build self-confidence in adolescents
Mental capacity is found equally in every person, but the rate of its use is different in everyone, like other blessings given by nature, the mind is also a blessing that has no substitute.
If it is used properly, then man sets foot on the moon and Mars, the mysteries of the universe are revealed to him and he surprises the world with his creative observations like Stephen Hawking. On the contrary, if it does not use thinking and mental ability, then it becomes a robot that is concerned only with eating, drinking, and sleeping, so it is necessary to inculcate the habit of using mental ability and ability in children from childhood. Parents want to see their children as intelligent as possible, they want their children to grow up to become great scientists like Einstein or renowned doctors. Children are given only these two goals: either to become a doctor or a scientist. Parents also adopt different methods to achieve this goal. They are taught in the best school, as well as the best tutors in the evening hours so that their children can pass the exams with as many good grades as possible.
Day and night, they are urged to study and perform better than others. Of course, only parents can think good for their children and they are always striving for the well-being and better future of the children, but in the race for competition and better results, they often forget that not every child’s mental ability is the same. Some children are very weak in speech with habits such as loneliness, and carelessness at a young age. They hesitate to talk at the gathering. All the children in the classroom are hesitant to answer the question, in such a situation, the parents compete with other children and create a feeling of inferiority in them, which in the future causes problems for them in every field of life. Instead of using weapons of coercion and scolding on the child, you build a relationship of friendship with them, sit with them, and ask them their heart out as friends, they will tell you the reasons for their problems, if they are weak in a subject, for example, most children seem to be unable to understand the statistics of calculation. In such a situation, if the children tell their thoughts to the mother or father, then their problem will definitely be removed. Dr. Mujad al-Amrudi, a prominent Psychologist in Egypt, while speaking to the newspaper “Al-Yom al-Sabah”, described eight useful suggestions that are very important for all parents, especially mothers, regarding the mental development of their children.
For children who feel inferior, and hesitant to speak, these psychological problems can be overcome in these ways.* Instill self-confidence in the child, since the child sees himself in the eyes of his parents, if the child is praised more and more, then he will increase self-confidence, and thus his mental abilities will be better developed. Efforts to develop self-confidence in children should not be limited to parents only, but teachers can also play an important role in this process, the child should not be blamed for a limited mentality, but it is important for mothers to convince their teachers and friends to develop self-confidence in their children. Avoid threatening the child and throwing it in the eyes of other children, even if they make mistakes again and again. Find the qualities of children that make them different from others.
Pay attention to improving their voice, and style of conversation. Provide them with an environment at home so that they can build confidence in themselves in school as well. Do not put the burden of work on the child more than his intelligence, so that the child fails and becomes frustrated under the burden of work. Continue to help the child improve his limited abilities at all times. Do not try to make your child psychologically fall in front of other children, but also praise your child in front of others. Help the child with his favorite hobbies so that he develops a sense of self-confidence while living among other children. If parents and teachers follow these factors, they will surely see a positive change in the child. They will be able to live without any mental stress and suffocation.
