Text / Workplace Mom, 育儿路
Babies are naturally cute. Many parents find that as long as they take their babies out, they will naturally become the focus of the crowd.
Even passers-by will cast their favorite eyes, not to mention their relatives at home. Playing games, feeding, kissing, relatives and friends will use many ways to express their love for their children.
But some methods are not appropriate. On the surface, they are teasing the baby, and the baby is also very happy, but in fact these behaviors are damaging the child's health. In the face of improper teasing from relatives and friends, can you bluntly refuse?
Weekend's unpleasant episode
I took my baby to a family party last weekend. I was helping my mother and two aunts prepare vegetables in the kitchen, and suddenly the baby came in the living room "Quack—" laughed loudly. At first, I didn't pay any attention to it, just thinking about who is so capable and so happy to tease the baby who usually only smiles.
Immediately afterwards, there was not only the laughter of the baby, but also the amusement of the adults, "Flying~Flying~". I couldn't bear to be curious, so I ran out to take a look, and I was suddenly startled in a cold sweat.
I saw the brother-in-law holding Seventeen’s armpit with both hands, raising her arms, and throwing Seventeen in the air. The distance was not high. After Seventeen fell, he raised his arms. Was firmly caught.
"Don't throw it away! Put down the seventeen!" The noisy living room was quieted down when I shouted, and the faces of several elders were a little embarrassed. I can't think about that much. I only know that this action is dangerous for children under one and a half years old and must be stopped.
After listening to my explanation, both my sister and brother-in-law said they were understandable, but my mother still complained a little bit about me and embarrassed everyone. But on the issue of children’s safety, I, like many parents, regard it as the bottom line of all behaviors, even if my relatives and friends do behaviors that pose safety risks, I have to bluntly refuse.
These behaviors are on the surface funny, but in fact they threaten the health of the child
1) Game interaction
①Throw high
Throw the baby high; hold the neck with one hand, grasp the ankle with the other, lift the baby high and rotate it quickly; the act of directly grasping the baby's arms and turning in a circle is very dangerous .
Hazard: In the process of throwing up and falling, it is easy to cause the baby's cervical dislocation or subluxation. The falling process depends entirely on the adult catching the baby, there is a risk that the baby will fall if you miss, and the impact of the drop will also damage the adult's hand.
Lifting rotation also has the risk of falling, and rapid rotation will cause the baby's brain tissue to collide with the skull, affecting the healthy development of the brain.
②Let the baby ride on the shoulder
In order to express their love for the baby, many families will let the baby sit on their shoulders. This behavior is very common, but there are also certain risks.
Hazard: In this posture, an adult must firmly hold the baby's hands to maintain stability. Once let go, the baby may lean back, causing damage to the cervical spine or falling.
2) Daily care
① Feel free to touch the private part
Some relatives will touch the baby's private part at will out of love (a boy receives this honor) Mostly). This is actually a very disrespectful behavior to the baby.
Hazard: The baby's private parts are very delicate, and there are many bacteria in the hands of adults. Random caressing may infect the baby. Moreover, this behavior willMisleading the baby to have the wrong perception that "the part of his own privacy can be watched and touched" is not conducive to the relevant education of the baby.
②Pinch the bridge of the nose
Most babies' nose bridges are not obvious, and will gradually rise with age. But many relatives and friends of the older generation are not familiar with this scientific common sense. Some even pinch the bridge of the baby's nose, hoping that the baby's nose can grow taller and look good.
Hazard: The baby’s nasal cavity is fragile and tender, and an adult’s squeeze may cause secretions in the nasal cavity. Enter the middle ear and cause inflammation.
③Kiss
Kiss the baby. It is the most common and direct way to express love. In fact, this behavior is very risky.
Hazard: Most of the cosmetics we usually use will irritate the baby's skin, and babies with sensitive skin may be injured as a result.
In addition, the baby's immunity is relatively low, and the health risks of mouth-to-mouth kissing are very high, and even life-threatening under special circumstances. Family members must strengthen supervision.
3) Feeding
① Make your baby taste the wine
When having a dinner together, some family members will live in the fun The mentality is to dip the head of your chopsticks in the wine to give your baby a taste. This behavior is extremely undesirable.
Hazard: Alcohol has been identified as a first-level carcinogen. Moreover, the baby's liver metabolism function is not perfect. Even a little alcohol may cause alcoholism and even affect the intellectual development.
②Feed the baby at will
Babies are very interested in what they eat. My seventeen is an example. Two eyes are looking at you with pitiful eyes, which makes people unbearable not to feed. But Seventeen is a "sensitive baby", allergic to many foods.
Almost half of allergies are caused by random feeding by family members, so random feeding by family members is one point that I particularly taboo.
Hazard: Feeding the baby without authorization is very risky. First of all, we cannot be sure whether the child can eat the food in our hands. Even if it can be eaten without allergies, the type and shape of the food may affect the baby's health and development.
ask others, we must do it ourselves
In fact, the original intention of these behaviors is because of the love of relatives and friends to the baby. When reminding others, we ourselves must also make sure not to do these dangerous things.
Some studies have proved that even if the baby is still small, they have not formed a long-term memory, but when they do not remember, the things that the baby experiences will still affect the formation of their future personality.
Conclusion
There are many ways to express love, and it is not necessary to convey them through these risky behaviors. Taking your baby to outdoor activities, reading picture books, listening to music with your baby, and taking your baby to practice together is good for his big sports and other development methods, and it can also be safe and good for emotional enhancement.
