Tips To Help Your Child Open Up And Feel A Little Less Isolated

Parents, we know that raising a family can be hard. Raising an introverted child in this extroverted world can be even more difficult! Know that nothing is wrong with your child, they just view and interact with the world differently. โฃ

Provide them with an outlet for describing their thoughts and fears. Suggest that they keep a journal or draw if they arenโ€™t comfortable with full disclosure.โฃ

Encourage them that itโ€™s okay to accept help of guidance! They will soon discover that collaboration is necessary for progress.โฃ

Give your teen a chance to observe crowds before conversing with people. Your child may be more inclined to join them once they have a good idea of how they interact. Furthermore, donโ€™t pressure your quiet teens to make friends. Encourage them to bond with other introverts!โฃ

If their quietness makes them the targets of bullying, teach them to speak to trusted adults. Listen when they talk and encourage them to verbalize their thoughts. Above all, teach them to assert themselves.โฃ

Or reading and drawing vs. playing outside. Remember that different doesnโ€™t mean strange! โฃ
โฃ
Regardless if your child is introverted or extroverted, they need your support and guidance all the same! Be there for your child, in the way they need you to be. ๐Ÿ’™โฃ

Are you an extrovert or introvert? Do you think this effects how you view your teenโ€™s social tendencies? ๐Ÿค”
