This week: Helping Children Deal With Social Stress

  • The most important thing you can do to help your kid get through social stress is to be a safe and comforting place to come home to.
  • Push your child to join a group or sport or club at school.
  • There will always be social stress and conflict, no matter how many friends they have.
  • Some groups of friends are inclusive and some are exclusive. Your child needs to decide what kind of group they want to join.
  • If your child is in groups and has friends, but you still see issues, look at their social skills.
  • Model behavior of how to interact and be inclusive when engaging with others.
  • Social skills start in infancy, and go all the way through adulthood. Social skills include in-person interaction, online, and on the phone. Make sure kids know proper etiquette.
  • Build confidence in your child by helping them create a good story about themselves that they say to themselves and believe.
  • Dealing with conflicts will help them to develop problem solving skills.
  • Don’t project your needs and experiences on your children.
  • Help your kids to diversify types of friends and where they come from in their daily lives.
  • Don’t assume that your child is being inclusive or included. Ask questions.
  • Try to be in tune with how their friends interact with your kids.
