与有亚当人的孩子沟通给父母带来挑战。许多父母发现让孩子放慢速度令人沮丧,注意并遵循指示。如果问题复杂了这个问题父母自己也有ADHD

Kirk Martin是执行董事Celebrate!ADHD是一个教育组织,为受加入,ADHD,自闭症,感官一体化障碍,对立蔑视障碍影响,患有受教育者,父母和儿童的培训,焦虑, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and other learning or emotional disabilities.

"It is important to understand that children with ADHD have very busy minds," says Martin. "Think of your child’s brain as a city with streets carrying information, impulses, sensory input, teachers' lectures, and your directions. But in their city, the traffic lights are not working, creating gridlock and chaos."

通信提示

由于与我们的孩子更有效地沟通,Martin建议父母和老师试试这些战略。

  • 给出明确的,具体的方向。
  • 尝试将任务分解为一两个步骤,以便他们感到压倒性。
  • 给孩子选择。
  • 提问而不是制作陈述。这迫使孩子停下来思考替代方案。

"Use interesting time limits and make it a challenge. Saying, 'We are leaving in five minutes' is meaningless," explains Martin. Instead, ask your child, "Do you think we can set a record by picking up all our Legos in three and a half minutes?" Martin also encourages parents to speak softly and whisper at times. "It helps your child learn to listen more attentively."

Instead of requiring your child to maintain eye contact, let your child move around and/or have something in their hands (such as textured objects or fidgets) while you are speaking. "This will actually increase attention and retention," Martin says.

有时我们谈论,直到我们在脸上是蓝色,孩子只是不听。他们代替我们。马丁推荐视觉和听觉提醒,以保持一个孩子任务。“我们教父母如何使用颜色卡(黄色减速,红色停止,绿色,Go Go)和计时器,帮助孩子们关闭他们的视频游戏而不被问到。”

如何在脾气发脾气期间沟通

许多父母不确定如何处理发脾气当孩子变得非常沮丧时,可能会发生这种情况。马丁鼓励父母看待脾气作为一种证明个人诚信的机会。“你越早向孩子们展示他们的发脾气无法控制你,他们越早就会停止扔掉它们。”

"The most effective way to calm an emotional child is for us to be calm. When your child is having a meltdown, you need to be the calm rock in their life. No matter how much their world is spinning out of control, you need to show them that you, the adult in their life, are in control and that everything is okay. And they need to recognize that you are so emotionally strong that even their wildest tantrum cannot move you.”

马丁解释说,当我们进入或尝试贿赂我们的孩子时,他们会得知他们无法依赖我们。他们得知我们可以通过尖叫和哭泣来操纵或尴尬。这导致更具不安全和不稳定。

“adhd的孩子们里面有很棒的混乱,所以他们需要秩序和结构在外面,“Kirk Martin说。

“所以当你的孩子失去它时,首先寻求控制自己并保持冷静。因为你的孩子变得情绪化,他是不合理的。这是不合理的。”

穆丁劝告父母将孩子吸引到他们的平静中。“坐下来用蜡笔开始用蜡笔,读一本杂志,煮你的植物,做饭。邀请他进入你的平静。这将起初吓坏了他,因为他习惯看到你感到不安。你在沟通,是(1)你的行为无法控制或操纵我和(2)无论你如何感受到你的感觉,我都是一个你可以依赖的摇滚乐。“

父母可能会冷静地让孩子知道他们are available when the screaming and acting out stops. Martin gives an example of what a parent may say: "When you are ready to talk, I’m all ears. But I can’t hear what you are screaming at me and your tantrum will not get what you want."

来自粗糙的一个词

Communicating well with kids is essential, no matter the child's diagnosis. If your child has ADHD or other learning or attention issues, communication can be challenging. Miscommunication and frustration can lead to tantrums. But as a parent, you can help your child learn to listen and focus with smart suggestions, statements, and questions that promote understanding.
