My little brother, a child who has been gnawing fingernails for many years, did not change the bad habit of becoming a soldier. In fact, there are quite a few children around us who love to bite their nails. Some children even bite their toenails. When parents see it, they feel that it is too dirty and unacceptable, but on the other hand, they think it is ugly for their children to bite their nails.
In fact, this behavior of a child is mostly related to the quirks formed by the child's bad habits, and some children's behavior is related to their personality and their situation. Let's interpret it.
The first reason: Quirk
Some children have this quirk caused by some lack of nutrition or bad habits. However, some children will gradually improve as they grow older or their minds mature, and even quit this behavioral habit. But there are still most people who continue this bad habit until they are adults.
The second reason: personality factor
Some introverts, people with sensitive and anxious personality tend to be prone to frequent or subconscious nail biting. This kind of person's bad habits are mostly related to their personality or environment.
For the above two situations, parents have a way to deal with it when they want to manage their children's wrong habits.
For the first type of child, we need to find the reasons why the child develops quirks. If it is insufficient nutrition, it can help the child supply. If there is a problem with daily behavior, it can also be brought with the child to correct it. However, there is no need to worry about correcting the problem, and you should not beat and scold the child at will. Instead, you should find the root cause of the problem with the child, and help the child correct it step by step and patiently.
For the second type of children, parents should understand the root cause of the formation of their children's mentality, and do not put too much psychological pressure on their children, helping their children effectively overcome bad thoughts and release psychological pressure. Cultivate children's temperament and mind.
However, if the above behavior occurs in the newborn period, parents should not worry, as it may be related to the child's desire to explore. They will be interested in their fingers and feet, and parents must not stop them. In addition, children with oral period may also have the symptoms of eating their nails. Parents do not need too much intervention for this type of child.
However, the child's behavior is over six years old and has reached the point of biting the skin, so you must be careful. As parents, in addition to careful observation, they should also pay attention to their children's behavior. Of course, necessary and delicate communication is also the main reason behind helping children find bad habits.
