Last Thursday evening self-study, a student in the class I was in teaching was called to the office by the head teacher. After listening to their conversation, I realized that the child almost jumped out of the window because of a small matter. If it weren’t for the male classmates in the class who discovered and held him in time, a tragedy would have been a success. Moreover, this is the third time this year. I just sat on the windowsill the first two times. This time I was about to jump down, which scared the head teacher and hurriedly called the parents to the school. While the head teacher was not in the office, I talked with the child for a while as a subject teacher. He said that he couldn't control himself at that time and now he doesn't have this kind of thinking. I told the head teacher that this child is afraid that he has depression and , so he asked his parents to take him to the hospital for examination, and medication should be controlled if necessary. However, the head teacher said that she had also reminded the parents of her children, but the parents did not admit this.
Nowadays, many people do not know much about depression, especially children's depression, and think of the frequent excessive behaviors of children as rebellious and are unwilling to take their children to regular hospitals for diagnosis and treatment. What's more, some parents think that depression is a mental problem, so when school teachers remind parents, they are unwilling to accept it. They only admit this fact when the child's condition worsens or even causes a tragedy.
If the child has the following behavioral tendencies, as parents, you should pay attention.
1. If the child is in a wrong mood, he will make a big fuss about small things, or cry or ignore others because of small things, or even threaten with death. If this situation happens several times a year, it must be taken seriously.
2. The child does not want to go to school, does not want to study, is afraid to meet teachers and classmates, and does not talk to anyone. As a parent, don’t think that the child is just making trouble, and then use a swearing method to force the child to go to school.
3. Children often say that they are uncomfortable and there is no problem going to the hospital for examination. Some children often pretend to be sick to attract the attention of teachers and parents, making teachers and parents anxious.
Faced with the above situation, parents should pay attention. Perhaps your child may suffer from depression. If he does not have control over himself, he needs medication to control it.
