College entrance exam sprint: 5 things parents need to keep in mind! Prepare for 'escort' for your child!
During the sprint, the child is undoubtedly the parent’s greatest concern. But sometimes excessive worry and inappropriate incentives will create invisible pressure on candidates. In principle, it’s not wrong to care about your child’s health and grades, but as a parent, if you don’t have the ability to guide him in his studies, nor the ability to quickly improve his grades, don’t put any more mental pressure on candidates. So, in this intense sprint period, what can parents do right?
№.1 Don't always mention other people's children. Children from other families have been good since they were young. Whether it's from Aunt Wang's family or from Uncle Li's family, they can always be praised repeatedly by their parents. But during the sprint, parents must refrain from mentioning examples of other people's successful admissions to elite colleges. The Chinese Psychological Association once conducted a statistical survey and found that 95% of the candidates experienced varying degrees of anxiety one month before the college entrance examination, and 97% of the candidates experienced anxiety during the exam. Although the college entrance examination is a turning point, since we know its importance, we must try our best to decompress our children instead of putting pressure on them.
№.2 Avoid putting worry on your face. Emotions can be passed on. During the critical period of the college entrance examination, don't worry too much about your children. Every time you are different, it will bring emotional changes to the candidates. If the parent's concern goes beyond the usual state, it is actually supercharging the child in a disguised form, and in severe cases it will damage the harmony of the family atmosphere. Therefore, maintaining a correct attitude and maintaining a normal mind is the most important item.
№.3 Avoid aggressive tactics. When children are young, parents always like to stimulate their children with aggressive methods. Through verbal incentives, children's self-confidence can be suppressed to achieve significant results. However, during the special period of the college entrance examination, you must not use the radical method. The college entrance examination is a protracted battle. In addition to examining ability, it also examines psychological quality. Therefore, during the sprint, it is necessary to establish the child's ability to self-identify, praise more and less reprimand. Let candidates understand themselves correctly, realize self-awareness, and tell themselves "I can do it".
№.4 Pay attention to a healthy diet. Parents, please remember that during the college entrance examination, you must not change the eating habits of candidates. Avoid large meals, avoid poorly digested foods, and avoid overeating. Random changes in diet will change the mechanism of the body and cause a burden on the body. Therefore, it is recommended to combine meat and vegetarian diets, maintain a daily state, eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, and refuse cold drinks and carbonated drinks. These are the places parents should pay attention to.
№.5 Avoid noisy environments. The quiet environment creates a calm body and mind, which helps candidates prepare for the exam with emotional stability. At this stage, entertain relatives at home as little as possible and reduce the number of guests. Parents should also maintain a calm mood and avoid quarrels, which are all conducive to creating a warm family atmosphere. In the spare time, it is necessary to communicate with the candidates, listen to the distress of the candidates, and evacuate the pressure and burden of the candidates.
