Pay attention to your children says Psychology Today. When disaster strikes, children react differently from adults. It is important for parents to notice these reactions.
An article in Psychology today, addresses how parents treat children that have been involved or aware of a disaster. Disasters range from natural disasters to kidnappings, or world disasters. Parents need to be aware of their child’s behavior after a disaster.
Is he or she having trouble sleeping? What about chores and daily activities? When things don’t seem normal with a child, this could be a sign the child needs extra attention and comfort from you.
The communication and comfort from a parent helps a child learn to deal with the effects of a disaster.
Keep this advice in mind daily because the next worldly disaster could be right around the corner.
