Early child development: the reverse side of the coin


Early child development: the reverse side of the coinEarly development is when a child learns the tricks of the surrounding existence almost from the cradle. I must say that this development occurs in and of itself, with the help of parents and as children get older.


But today it is expected that a huge number of third parties who earn good money and are actively promoting the advantages of this instruction.





Where the pros, there are cons


Modern parents want a lot of things from their children. Yes and no wonder, in society thrives today highly educated, adventurous, sociable person who can work in a team and easily trained, as I love to write employers. As soon as any develop ambitious mothers and fathers of their children: and English, and logic, and early teaching of reading and mathematics by Zaitsev, and choreography, and psychological training. In addition to variegated educational books already exist computer learning games and programs for 2-3-4 year olds! What is the result of parental ambition, in addition to high erudition and readiness for school in 4 years?




First, General debility, poor eyesight and posture, because the development of the intellect requires great physical effort. Secondly, irritability, moods and hysteria caused a lot of stress in the nervous system of the child, not designed for heavy loads. Thirdly, neurotic fear not catch anywhere and do not correspond to the accepted norms, which is a direct consequence of increased demands and claims to the child by the parents. Fourthly, a large number of fears and total excitable state of mind - that's why the proverb says: who knows a lot, he sleeps badly. Add to that the deterioration of sleep and decreased appetite, and you will get far from a complete picture of the sad consequences of early initiation of preschooler to the world of knowledge".




What motivates followers so early (year or more) training? Absolutely fantastic idea that the human brain develops only under 6 years old (that would be surprised Comenius and Pestalozzi), and then just spend the accumulated potential! I wonder how the same people after 6 years I learn, acquire new knowledge in adulthood?





Do not go to extremes


Of course, one cannot deny that received early childhood experience for a long time remains in memory, but is it worth to go to extremes?! No, I'm not against intellectual development. Very even, but with some reservations.




First, most parents are trying through their child to compensate for their own unfulfilled desire or ability (for example, mom has always wanted to do ballroom dancing, but her parents took him to a music school, and now she repeats the same error: furiously drags daughter in a dance club, not wanting to see that your child does not have the appropriate abilities and the soul is to this lesson).




Secondly, ambitious moms and dads, again forgetting about the personality of your baby and neurotisisme him with it, trying to get him under generally accepted framework "developed", indiscriminately filled with various information, complain and get annoyed if the child does not want to "fit" in their understanding of smart and knowing. Mom to 3 year old toddler is experiencing: "Dolby with him, Dolby this alphabet, and he still remembers nothing! There Dima already some syllables knows". However, she does not want to see that the child has a weak thinking, attention and memory, and we must begin not with the alphabet, and with the simplest of images, and not to look at Dima, which has completely different abilities.




Parents often think that, leading a child's development studios, they thereby take care of the baby and thus "pay attention to him". A great delusion or self-deception. Little child, for the full happiness have very little to spend, talk with parents who are "bending over backwards to provide the child a decent life". And educational circles is a good reason to not waste your time and effort (in other words, an excuse for their own laziness).




Someone may object, saying, if a parent has no pedagogical education, it is difficult to develop your child. And here I come to the main point: to develop a small child up to 4 years, not necessarily the mother to have the appropriate education! Enough love, interest and desire to be together, to walk with him hand in hand into the unknown, promising the world. In constant close contact with the mother is generated emotion and trust in life that become the starting point for normal intellectual and social development (note that emotional development always precedes intellectual).




What else can you advise the mother, knowing that she was the first mentor to your child? More to talk with him, even when it seems that he is still unable to understand it. First of all not to introduce theoretical concepts, and with the objects that surround your child at home and on the street. To focus on the personal development of the child's experience, developing the sensors, or the senses, to give him to touch, to see, to hear, to smell, to move. And be sure - YOU laid a charge of love and attention to give baby a lot more development than all the Studio together!
