Strategies to Increase Parent-Child Psychological Tolerance
What can we do?
Creating short but real breaks
Even 15-20 minutes a day when the child is playing independently and the parent is a little distant from the space is very valuable.
Predictable times for the child
For example: Now it's your playtime for 20 minutes, then we'll play together. This gives the child security and gives the parent a chance to breathe.
Using low-energy communication alternatives
It's not always necessary to play actively. Sometimes just sitting next to the child, reading a book or drawing a simple picture is enough.
Accepting our limitations
Sometimes we can say, "I'm too tired now, we'll play together later." This sentence is not only not harmful, but it also teaches the child the concept of boundaries and reality.
An important reminder
If you sometimes get bored
If you sometimes need to be alone
If you sometimes don't feel like playing...
These are not signs that you are not a good parent
But they are signs that you are trying too hard without enough support.
