We are trying to create a world of structure and predictability for our children. We work hard to give them a routine, a regular schedule and in line with expectations. We strive to make life predictable, stable, safe and secure. When they grow up, we hope that this early experience is internalized as a kind of centeredness, and that they are robust in the world and the change in flux. Besides the children a safe and secure platform, how can we prepare them for the ups and downs in life? One way might be to actively promote a positive attitude to change. Positive approach to change is part of a realistic assessment of what is about to change may be associated with both negative and positive. It is not Pollyanna naivet? or repression of emotions. On the positive side, the change is seen as an opportunity to expand their own experience. There is a sense that change is to improve and renew the life and material well-being. On the negative side, when the change is a loss, it is also an active grief and processing of emotions. And when you change it precludes an active, confident that no one can influence its fate for the better. Here are some steps that parents can take to promote this type of attitude in children:

1.As much as we try to do for our children to live safe and predictable, they will experience changes from time to time, sometimes dramatic changes. As parents, we can use this experience in teaching opportunities. The first step is to observe the child over time. Notice how your child reacts to the horizon change. Is the pattern? Is he usually digs in heels? Has he become anxious and afraid? Or he is waiting for new experiences? These patterns and attitudes can become a practice to go into adulthood. The goal is to change negative attitudes, and now before they become entrenched.

2 When a child in front of the new situation or impending change, talk to him for his feelings. Sometimes this is easier said than done. Depending on the child’s age, temperament and background, he may or may not be able to discuss their feelings directly. If the child has difficulty articulating how he feels, is approaching it indirectly. Maybe take a parallel example from my own life and discuss how you felt at that time. Young children, it is good to use a picture book, which is where the main character goes through similar experiences.

3 Let your child grieve over losses in turning his life. Acknowledge the losses are real, and consoled his grief. If the child does not express the grief, you can add to their anxiety and even lead to depression.

4 Check your child’s image of the head. The child’s sense of impending change is directly proportional to his understanding of what is happening. If the child says to himself that he move to a new neighborhood, and shunned by the neighborhood kids, it is reasonable that he is sad and scared. Ask your child specifically what he thinks in the future at a time a change occurs.

5 Find catastrophic thinking. Catastrophic thinking is what it sounds like: imagine a disastrous end, in the worst case. It is black and white thinking, but only in black. Search using words like “never” to “always” “all” and “no”. Examples would be “I will never make any friends in my school,” “Everything has already friends,” “Nobody wants to be friends with me.” This statement may seem the reality of a child, but they are not. It’s your job to challenge these statements and to help children develop a more balanced picture of what the future may be. If you repeatedly challenging catastrophic thinking, your child pick up a technology and start using it themselves.

6 Prepare the child in some of her fears are realized is. For example, if you do not talk to the child in a new district, he strikes up a conversation up to the bus stop, or knock on a neighbor’s door and introduce themselves. Of course, if the child is very shy, or have other obstacles, you must modify the proposal accordingly. Also, ask the child if he or she can think of solutions. Teaching a child to be proactive than the response to the immeasurable benefits for life. Proactive people feel in control of their situation, and it is directly correlated with life satisfaction.

7 If necessary, ask the child trying to imagine the positive outcome of the appeal. Encourage him to think about all the wonderful opportunities that change can bring. This exercise teaches the child to think optimistically. Again, after enough repetition, the child can not accept this technology.

8 When a change has occurred and the child is settled, to mark his success. Remind him about his “image in your head” and the contrast of the changed situation. This will help him to test the reality of future thinking.
