As the number of coronae virus patients are increasing around the world, right and wrong information related to this virus is also reaching people.

The same information is reaching your child as well. You may understand the difference between right and wrong information but it is difficult for the child to do so.

At the same time, media and social media are full of various sensational news. They can also scare your child.

Therefore, inform the child in such a way that they understand the right things without being scared. Let us know how you can do this-

Children can ask these questions

“Will my school be closed?”

“Will the grandfather or grandmother die?”

Regarding ‘What My Child Thinking’, a book on parenting, says Radhika, a consultant and clinical psychologist, your tone of voice matters a lot when talking to children.

Dr.says, “To an extent, we like horror stories but we don’t want to listen to them very much. To protect your child from the risk of coronavirus, tell her in simple terms how the virus spreads and how to reduce the risk of it, like lots of cute bubbles washing hands.

Kovid-19 is a respiratory disease caused by the coronavirus which causes fever and then a dry cough. It may also cause a cold. After about a week, there is trouble in breathing and some patients have to be hospitalized.

According to doctors, the coronavirus is spread by droplets of an infected person while coughing or sneezing.

Doctors say that it is very important to talk to children about how they can avoid it. For example, when you cough or sneeze, use a handkerchief or tissue and then throw it in the dustbin. Can tell them about cleanliness.

The doctor says, “When the conversation with the child about the coronavirus is over, immediately start talking on a topic that is mild. Like what he has to eat at lunch or who will win in the evening match.

Keep your details complete

Parents often face such situations in which it is difficult to answer the questions of children. Such as war, terrorism, climate change, sex education etc. Parents try their best to explain these things to the child in an easy manner.

Doctor Radhika says that children who are about to become teenagers are developing their ability to assess risk. So it is important to know how much they are worried about Coronavirus.

She says, “Be clear that you don’t have all the answers, but the people who are making decisions for us have all the information they need.”

“Parents remember that before talking to the child about the coronavirus, keep your information as complete as possible. Keep an eye on the advice being issued by the government.

If a boy or girl gets coronavirus infection, then parents are advised not to take any risk regarding their health.

“You can tell the children that it feels a little bit painful,” says speech-language therapist doctor John Gilmartin at children’s communication charity I Can. So it is not as terrible as they understand it.

It is being said in the information that has come out about the coronavirus that it is more vulnerable to the elderly and people already suffering from any disease. In such a situation, children may worry about their friends and the elderly.

Dr Radhika advises that he should answer honestly that “everybody has to go from this world but it is not expected until we are very old”.

Doctor Rajesh Ahuja also says, “We should do all these things to children with a smile and a laugh or a joke or keep the conversation as light as possible. Make your children believe that you and the elderly are perfectly fine. Also, you will keep making every effort to keep yourself and your family healthy and safe. ‘’

Children’s ability to deal with any problem or difficult situation increases with age. So, the way you talk to a three-year-old child, a teenage child cannot. Therefore, change your tone and tone according to the age of the child.

But, Dr Godwin suggests that children of all ages use easy language and let him ask a lot of questions so that he feels that he is being heard.

Become the best source of information for your child and pay attention to the information he is getting from social media or other sources.
