Children have a lower level of stress tolerance than adults. Therefore, the quarantine period has become a problem for many. Over the past two days, I have received two requests on the topic: The child is worried that food and money will run out. Tells your parents that you need to eat less. You are confused. You feel anxiety and panic growing inside you. You are trying to convey to the child that everything will be fine. That the situation is temporary and not hopeless. However, you manage to do this with difficulty. And then the question arises: “What should I do? What to do in this situation?” Analyze what may be causing your child’s behavior. In the first client case, the prerequisite for anxiety in the teenager was the situation of past years. When the family had financial difficulties associated with loans and job loss. Which led to conflicts in the family. The teenager began to worry that the quarantine holidays would become a “trigger” (another danger) for the situation to repeat itself. In order to “save” the family from conflicts and disintegration, the teenager took on the role of “Parent”, began to control his parents, and demanded that they save food. After the consultation, the parents were able to convey to the teenager that the situation in the family is now different, unlike the situation in previous years. That at the moment there is a cushion of financial security and there is no reason to worry. That crises are not a reason for family breakdown. The crisis analysis scheme, which we discussed during the consultation, the parents were able to apply in a conversation with the teenager. In the second case, the child’s parents’ behavior was a cause for concern. Who have often discussed the topic of the crisis in recent days. The discussions were negative and alarming. The child picked up his parents' complaints like a relay race. Due to his age, he was unable to cope with the surging emotions, which led to hysterics. Our parental behavior and inability to cope with crises leads to stress and neuroses in children. Having a more mature personality structure, we can take care of ourselves, learn to live through crisis moments without collapsing, without using alcohol or aggression in relationships with each other. It is easier for us Adults to ask for help and develop new skills that we can pass on to our children as an example.
