Instead of Overprotecting, It’s Better to Accompany Them Through Ups and Downs.

Recently, I saw a friend share a short video on Facebook, featuring her 5-year-old son demonstrating how to cut broccoli with a serrated knife. The edited video lasted about three and a half minutes and was filmed entirely by the mother. In the video, the boy’s cutting skills were not exactly proficient, but he wore a calm expression and explained his actions confidently.

 

As a therapist, I completely agree with the mother’s approach of allowing her child to learn and gain experience from life. After all, the harm from a serrated knife is limited; even if he does cut himself, it would likely only result in a minor injury, and children tend to recover quickly. However, as a mother myself, I couldn’t help but feel worried while watching the entire process.

When the boy successfully cut through the broccoli, I let out a sigh of relief. I greatly admired his patience and effort, but I was even more impressed by the mother’s courage.

 

Many parents often struggle between allowing their children to try new things and worrying about them facing setbacks. While many parents rationally understand that children need some autonomy to develop a sense of responsibility and confidence, the instinct to protect their children from failure or pain is powerful. These worries and anxieties lead parents to protect their children from making mistakes in various ways, such as making decisions for them, completing responsibilities they should handle themselves, or persuading them to solve problems in the parents’ way.

Parents’ concerns about their children’s potential failures come from a place of love, which is natural. However, the greatest gift parents can give their children is not to protect them from making mistakes or getting hurt, but to accompany them through the highs and lows, as well as the successes and failures. This kind of companionship includes respect, trust, and support for the child—respecting their right to make their own choices, trusting that they can handle the consequences of those choices, and providing unwavering support when they face difficulties and setbacks.

No one can guarantee that a child’s life will be smooth sailing, but a parent’s presence can assure their child that they are never alone. Only then can children confidently explore, learn, and develop their strengths.

與其過度保護 不如陪伴經歷高低起跌

system

 

撰文:婚姻及家庭治療師

最近在臉書上看到一位好友分享了一段短片,記錄了她5歲的大兒子示範如何用鋸齒小刀切西蘭花,經剪接後的短片約3分半鐘,全程由媽媽負責拍攝。在短片中,男孩的刀法談不上熟練,但臉上卻一副氣定神閒的樣子,而且還解說得頭頭是道。

 

作為一位治療師,筆者也很贊同媽媽的做法,就是放手讓孩子從生活中學習和汲取經驗,因為畢竟鋸齒小刀的傷害性有限,即使真的割傷了手,最多也只是皮外傷,小孩子也會很快復原。可是我作為一子之母,觀看著整個過程,也不其然擔心起來。

 

 

1

小男孩順利切完整棵西蘭花,我也頓時鬆了一口氣。我心裡十分欣賞男孩的耐心和努力,但我更佩服這位媽媽的勇氣。

 

很多時候,父母都會在放手讓孩子嘗試,以及擔心孩子遭遇挫敗兩者之間掙扎著。許多父母在理性上明白孩子需要有適度的空間自主自決,並從中建立責任感和自信心。然而作為愛錫子女的父母,也同時會不忍看到孩子遇挫折或經歷痛苦。這些擔心和焦慮,會驅使父母以不同的方式保護孩子免於犯錯,例如為孩子做決定,替孩子完成他們應負的責任,又或是說服孩子以父母的方法去解決問題等等。

 

父母擔心子女遇挫敗,都是基於愛護他們,這亦是人之常情。然而父母能給予孩子最大的愛,並不是去保護孩子免於犯錯和受傷,而是陪伴孩子經歷種種高低起跌和成敗得失。這一種陪伴包含了對子女的尊重、信任和支持,就是尊重孩子有自己的選擇,並且信任他們有能力承擔其選擇的後果,以及在孩子遇到困難和挫折時,仍能百分百的支持孩子的決定。

沒有人能保證孩子的人生一帆風順,但父母的陪伴可以讓子女感受到自己是絕不孤單的。只有這樣,孩子才能滿有自信地不斷探索、學習和發展所長。

Oral Muscle Development Training: Laying the Foundation for Language Skills

system

 

Written by: Speech Therapist Ms Jenny T. Y. Kwok

Every child’s language ability is different. Some children can speak various words by the age of one and form sentences by two, communicating effectively with others. However, some children develop their language skills more slowly. In fact, the development of oral muscles has a profound impact on both eating and language abilities. Parents can engage in various small games to train their children’s oral muscles, laying a solid foundation for their language development.

 

Oral muscles include the muscles of the cheeks, lips, tongue, and jaw, which develop and improve with age and eating experiences. The strength, control, flexibility, and coordination of these muscles are crucial factors in a child’s ability to learn to speak.

 

Daily meal times provide excellent practice opportunities. However, some cases involve children primarily eating finely chopped or pureed foods, which can hinder the normal development of their chewing abilities, affecting both eating and language development. Common issues include drooling and unclear or inaccurate pronunciation, so oral muscle problems must be addressed.

 

Here are some simple games to train oral muscles, which we hope will improve children’s oral capabilities through fun activities, thus laying a strong foundation for their language skills.

 

Blowing Practice

 

How to Play:

 

First, prepare a basin of water and position it between the parent and child, who should face each other. Fill the basin halfway with water and place a paper boat on the parent’s side, adding a small treat or toy (such as stickers, etc.) inside. The parent blows the paper boat toward the child, who can then take the treat. If the child wants more, they must blow the boat back toward the parent.

 

This blowing exercise strengthens the ability to retract the tongue and round the lips, enhancing the stability and control of the jaw, which improves speech clarity.

Chewing Practice
 

How to Play:

Cut harder vegetables or fruits (such as carrots, cucumbers, celery, and apples) into strips approximately the length and thickness of a finger. The parent holds the end of the vegetable strip and places it between the child’s molars to encourage chewing. The parent should stabilize the food’s position, pushing it slightly each time the child bites until the strip is completely eaten, alternating sides for practice. Parents can adjust the size, length, and hardness of the food strips according to the child’s abilities.

Chewing requires the coordination of the lips, tongue, and jaw muscles, while speech development also relies on the collaboration of different oral muscles to produce various sounds. Therefore, chewing training helps improve clarity of pronunciation.

口部肌肉發展要訓練 為語言能力奠基礎

system

 

撰文:言語治療師郭子欣

每個幼兒的語言能力都不同,有些小朋友我1歲多便能講出不同單字,2歲便能說出句子,與人溝通。但有些小朋友的語言能發展則較慢,事實上口部肌肉發展對進食及語言能力發展都有著深遠的影響。家長可以不同小遊戲,訓練小朋友口部肌肉,為其語言能力發展打好基礎。

 

口部肌肉包括面頰肌肉、唇部、舌頭及下巴的肌肉,會隨著年齡增長以及進食經驗轉變而不斷進步。口部肌肉的力度、控制、靈活度及協調性更是影響幼兒學習說話的重要因素。

 

幼兒日常進餐過程其實是很好的練習機會,但有些個案卻是因為經常進食細碎甚至糊狀食物,而導致咀嚼能力未能正常發展,既影響進食,亦影響語言發展。常見的情況如流口水及發音不清晰或準確,所以口肌問題必須正視。

 

以下是一些訓練口部肌肉的簡單小遊戲,希望能透過有趣活動改善小朋友口肌能力,為語言能力發展打好基礎。

 

吹氣練習

 

玩法:

 

首先預備一個盆,家長及小朋友面對面,把盆放在二人中間。然後加入半盆水,把一隻紙船放在家長的一邊,船內放上小朋友喜歡的食物或小禮品(如:貼紙等)。家長先把紙船吹向孩子的方向,小朋友便可以拿走船內的食物或小禮品,如果小朋友想再獲得食物或小禮品,必須把船吹向家長的方向。

 

透過這類吹氣練習,能加強舌頭向後縮以及圓嘴的能力,加強下顎的穩定性和控制度,以提升說話清晰度。

咀嚼練習

 

玩法:

 

把較硬身的蔬菜或水果(如:甘筍、青瓜、西芹和蘋果等)切成條狀,長度及粗度如食指相約。家長拿著蔬菜條的末端,然後把食物放到小朋友的大牙中間,以鼓勵小朋友運用大牙咀嚼。家長需要固定食物的位置,當孩子咬一下,家長便將食物推入一下,直至小朋友把整條蔬菜條吃光為止,左右兩邊交替練習。家長可因應小朋友的能力,調節食物條的粗幼長短及軟硬度。

 

咀嚼時需要嘴唇、舌頭及下顎等等的口部肌肉互相協調,而語音發展也是透過不同口部肌肉的配合發出不同的語音,所以咀嚼訓練有助改善發音清晰度。
