Zhejiang News Client reporter Zheng Wen

What should I do if my child doesn't want to go to school? Every year, the kindergarten and elementary school doors will see crying children, and the problems of anxiety in the start of school broke out. On August 30, the reporter came to the Yuhang 12355 Youth Service Station on Wuchang Street to see how the psychological counselor supported the start of the school anxiety.

On the table, there is a seat machine, a computer, and a few stacks; the bookcase is full of folders, and even the 2005 record book is stored ... Entering the service station, a neighborhood is on duty line. Essence Whenever the ringtone sounded, she quickly picked up the microphone and put into work.

Ding Menglei, a volunteer of the service station and the national second -level psychological counselor, told reporters, "One week before the start of school to two weeks after school each year, the number of parents and adolescents who come to seek help." In the regular campus life; some children have social difficulties and are worried that the new environment cannot adapt; some children have anxiety due to high academic pressure.

From the perspective of parents, most of the children of the ages are mostly separated by separation anxiety, low mood, poor food, not sleeping well, crying before school; children in middle and aged are emotional irritability, boredom, depression, and even insomnia appear insomnia. Essence

"Communication is not to say‘ you do n’t need to be anxious ’, but to try to understand their feelings from the perspective of children and give them emotional support." Ding Menglei suggested that parents should actively communicate with their children. Like the "holiday syndrome" of adults, children need a adaptation process at the beginning of school. Parents cannot be overwhelmed, let alone scold. If parents agree with their children's emotions and are willing to ask and listen, the child's anxiety will be relieved.

Parents can say to their children, "You need to adapt to the study and life of the new semester. It is not easy for us to spend this difficulty with you." Let the children feel understanding and care, and spend the adaptation period in a shorter time.

In addition, parents can help children who do not want to go to school to remember the happy things on campus, thereby reducing their resistance to school. Under normal circumstances, each child has a good companion on campus, and can use the "summoning power" of the friends to guide. For example, say to the child, "Your good friends are waiting for you to play together."

Some children may have difficulty in interpersonal communication and do not want to start school. At this time, parents must not only conduct emotional guidance, but also provide some social methods and skill guidance appropriately. For example, consciously help children increase social activities.

Before and after school, many children need to "make up their homework", and family contradictions are easy to concentrate. In Ding Menglei's view, children do not plan the holiday learning plan, and parents are also responsible. They should learn lessons and strive for the next holiday arrangement.

"Psychological health is the same as physical health. When you encounter a cold and cough, it will be good to deal with it in time. If you don't care about it and develop into pneumonia, the difficulty of treatment will increase." Ding Menglei reminded that in daily study and life, if parents do not notice their children, Psychological abnormalities, or have not paid attention to, when the class teacher or other students of the students reflect the problem, it shows that the child's problem is already a bit serious. Therefore, we must care more about the growth of children.

The reporter learned that, as the first youth hotline in Hangzhou City, Yuhang 12355 Youth Hotline has been running for 18 years. Internet addiction teenagers, rebellious girls, young people who have lost their feet ... Many children who have grown up have welcomed a new life under the care and care of this hotline. Tong Yan, the person in charge of the service station, told reporters that as of now, the hotline has received more than 60,000 hours, and more than 4,300 people are asked offline.

However, in recent years, the amount of calls for hotline has declined significantly in recent years. "Now, the channels of psychological counseling in schools and society are more diverse, and we will also take the initiative to go out to do the service work such as adolescent rights protection, psychological counseling, anti -drug lectures, free legal counseling." The hotline still has to be on duty, "7*24" is endless year.
