Sanchari enrolled her five-year-old son Rohan in an English medium school. Before that he was studying in Kindergarten. Little Rohan is always cheerful. Even if mother gets angry and punishes him, he does not cry. He has two new friends at school. He shares tiffin with them. But lately Rohan seems to be getting quiet. Sanchari noticed that he became quiet when it was time to go to school. After seeing this for a week, he got suspicious. (Ways to Help Your Child Deal With Bullying)
Sanchari asked one day while sleeping, what happened? Why do you frown when you go to school? Rohan told his mother that his friends have been calling him ‘fatty fatty’ for a few days. He feels bad about it. So he doesn’t like going to school. He claims that he will not go to school anymore, from now on he will study with his mother. The communicator understood that the matter was serious. It was then decided that a psychologist should be consulted in this regard.
He listened to the entire incident while going to the psychiatrist. Then he said, after entering the school, four out of ten people are victims of such behavior. (Bullying at Preschool). The older baby gets, the more he will face such problems. Be it bullying or harassment in any other way! To help him with his problem, the parent first needs to remember a few things (Helping Kids Deal With Bullies). Then he said those words one by one.
Give him time: Different events that happen at school every day create different reactions in the little mind. He also needs someone with whom he can share his thoughts. So no matter how busy you are, keep a certain time of the day for it. He wants to know from him what happened in the school that he likes or dislikes. Little baby has to keep her problems in her mind if she doesn’t find anyone to talk to her.
Encourage him: Little baby easily breaks down or gets scared when faced with an obstacle. All children have this weakness. It is important to encourage him to spend it. If he is afraid to do something, tell him that he is the only one who can do it properly. If there is a mistake while doing the task, explain to him why the mistake happened. It will also work more attentively. If you get encouragement, you can easily get out of many problems in life.

Give praise: The little boy or girl waits for praise when he succeeds in something. According to psychologists, this is a common characteristic of the child mind. So praise him for doing something well. It will increase positive energy in him. At the same time, getting your praise will increase his morale.
Be there for him: Don’t just listen to the problems. As if his problem is your problem, he can see his own thoughts on your face. It will make you feel very close. Apart from that, both of them joined hands to solve the problem. Know what they are thinking without giving advice alone. If there is a mistake in his thinking, it will be convenient to correct it.
Sanchari benefited greatly from hearing how parents can help with little baby problems. Then the psychologist came to the topic of children being bullied or facing teasing. He explained what should be done in that case.

- Teach the right posture: Teach him to talk with eye contact from an early age. Even when someone is making fun of him, he looks into his eyes and talks the same way.

So there’s no reason to talk with your head down if you’re not mistaken.

Sanchari’s vision opened up a lot after receiving the advice of a psychiatrist. Heeded his advice and convinced Rohan that very day. Rohan also got a lot of relief from his words. The next day Sanchari told his school teacher everything. As Rohan is as normal as his mother says, within a few days his friends go quiet. After that, no one would ever make fun of Rohan.
