帮助儿童和青少年过渡冠状病毒流行病的 7 种方法
Topics: Categories: Hot Topics Authored by:

新型冠状病毒疾病 (COVID-19) 的爆发给我们所有人,包括儿童和青少年,带来了很多焦虑和不确定性。在这紧张的时期里,不管孩子们年龄多大,他们都想了解三个基本问题: 我是否安全? 关心和照顾我的人是否安全? 这样的形势将会对我的日常生活产生什么影响? 作为父母和照顾者,我们需要和孩子们聊一聊 COVID-19,解决他们对上述问题的焦虑。以下有七个小贴士,让您能与各个年龄段的孩子交流,以帮助他们在这个危难期间保持情绪稳定,还附上一项指南,帮助您针对不同年龄的孩子量身打造对话内容。 适合所有年龄段孩子的帮助指南 1.控制您自身的焦虑 我们中的许多人都很担心目前的形势,生活在不确定性中并不容易。然而,焦虑具有“感染性”。即使您试图掩饰,您的孩子也能感受到您的紧张不安。那么,在您自己处于忧虑时,该如何保持冷静呢?这里有一些建议可能会对你有帮助: 尽可能获取最可信的信息。关注基于事实的、有用的病毒相关信息。避免接触无穷尽的社交媒体信息流,因为其中会掺杂错误信息,还有持续不断的所谓爆炸性新闻标题,这些都会加剧您的担忧。保持关注来自孩子所在学校、自己所在州、所在城市或城镇的最新通知。如果您了解能保护您及您所爱之人的指南,就可以最好地控制焦虑,这些指南包括洗手、清洁表面、使用消毒剂,以及您或您的家人是否需要隔离 ,万一需要检疫隔离的话,家里应该备有哪些补给品。 与支持您的人聊一聊。这个人可以是您的伴侣、父母、朋友、精神领袖,或是任何一个您可以信赖的成年人。 照顾好您自己的身体健康。保证充足的睡眠和锻炼,采用别的方法减轻焦虑,例如冥想、瑜伽、听音乐或看电视秀等。 如果孩子问起您是否担心,一定要如实回答!如果您没告知真相,他们也会知道的。您可以这样说:“是的,我很担心这种病毒,但我知道怎么阻止病毒传播。如果我们中有人生病了,我也有办法可以照顾家人。” 2.亲近孩子,了解他们知道些什么 大多数孩子都听说过 COVID-19,尤其是学龄儿童和青少年。他们可能在网上、电视上看到一些消息,或者是听到朋友或老师谈论过这种疾病。还有的孩子可能听过您在谈论这种疾病。外面有很多错误的信息,所以切勿以为他们了解切实的形势,也切勿认定他们获取的信息就是正确的。您可以问一些开放性问题: 你听说了什么关于冠状病毒的消息? 你在哪里听到的? 你主要的焦虑或担心是什么? 有什么疑虑我可以帮你解答吗? 对于冠状病毒,你有什么想法? 3.确认他们的感受和担忧 孩子们可能对 COVID-19 有各种各样的反应。有些反应可能是现实的,而另一些则可能夸大了。举个例子,如果孩子的奶奶住在疗养院,他们可能听说过比起健康人和年轻人,老年人 一旦得病会病得更重。这时,您要能够承认这种合理的担忧,但要能让他们放心,奶奶有最好的医疗护理来对付疾病。又或者,孩子可能害怕动物会感染病毒,比如他们心爱的宠物。同样地,请认真对待孩子的这些感受。请像对待其他人类家庭成员一样对待宠物,以保护它们免受潜在感染。 4.乐意回答问题并提供新信息…
