Speaking Gently: Things you should never say to your child

<p>A few things said in haste messes up a child’s brain and have a huge impact psychologically.</p>

Things You Should Never Say to Your Child

<p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The nose is an essential part of our body. It filters the air you breathe, removing dust, germs, and irritants. It warms and moistens the air to keep your lungs and tubes that lead to them from drying out. Your nose also contains the nerve cells that help your sense of smell. When there is a problem with your nose, your whole body can suffer. For example, the stuffy nose of the common cold can make it hard for you to breathe, sleep, or get comfortable.</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Let's be nosy and find out standard childhood nose related issues :</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Bacterial Nasal Infections</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - Minor infections at the opening of the nose, may result in pimples at the base of nasal hairs and sometimes crusts around the nostrils. The infection may result from nose picking or excessive nose blowing and causes annoying crusts and bleeding when the crusts slough off.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Broken Nose</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - A broken nose, also called a nasal fracture, is a break or crack in a bone in your nose — often the bone over the bridge of your nose. Common causes of a broken nose include contact sports, physical fights, falls, and motor vehicle accidents that result in facial trauma. A broken nose can cause pain, along with swelling and bruising around your nose and under your eyes. Your nose may look crooked, and you may have trouble breathing. Treatment for a broken nose may include procedures that realign your nose. Surgery usually isn't necessary for a broken nose.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Deviated Septum</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - The bone and cartilage that divides the inside of the nose in half is called the nasal septum. The most common symptom from a badly deviated septum is difficulty breathing through the nose, which is usually worse on one side. In some cases, it may cause sinus drainage or repeated sinus infections.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Nosebleeds</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - A nosebleed is blood loss from the tissue that lines your nose. The most common causes of nosebleeds are dryness (often caused by indoor heat in the winter) and nose picking. These two things work together — nose-picking occurs more often when mucus in the nose is dry and crusty. Colds also can cause nosebleeds.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Post-Nasal Drip</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - Post-nasal drip occurs when your nose and throat produce excess mucus, often causing you to feel it dripping down from your nose into your throat. Symptoms include Feeling of mucus drainage into the throat, Frequent swallowing, Throat clearing, Sore, irritated throat &amp; Feeling a lump in the throat.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Rhinitis (Hay Fever)</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> -&nbsp;Allergic rhinitis is the most common childhood ailment caused by allergies. Symptoms include a runny and itchy nose, sneezing, post-nasal drip and nasal congestion (blockage). A child with allergies may also have itchy, watery, red eyes and chronic ear problems.</span></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Runny Nose</strong><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> - A stuffy or congested nose occurs when the tissues lining the nose become swollen. The swelling is due to inflamed blood vessels. The problem may also include nasal discharge or "runny nose." If excess mucus runs down the back of your throat, it may cause a cough or sore throat. A runny nose may be annoying and uncomfortable, but it usually clears up on its own. Occasionally, it can be a sign of a more severe problem. A runny nose may be severe in infants.</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Prevention tips</strong></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Although it may not be possible to prevent all nosebleeds in children, a person can take steps to help reduce their occurrence. These include:</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Treating allergies to prevent inflammation in the nose</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Using saline (saltwater) nasal sprays to keep the child's nose moist</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Running a humidifier or vaporizer in the child's bedroom to prevent the air from drying out</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Keeping children's nails trimmed to prevent injuries due to nose picking</span></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Encouraging children to wear appropriate protective equipment during sports or other activities where injury to the nose is possible</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Remember</strong></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">If your child has symptoms of any of the above nose related issues/infections, see your paediatrician. Your paediatrician can properly diagnose and treat the infection and recommend ways to help alleviate the discomfort from some of the symptoms.</span></p>

The nose is an essential part of our body. It filters the air you breathe & removes dust. When there is a problem with your nose, your whole body can suffer.

<p>Are we exhibiting what we want our kids to be?</p><p><br></p><p>Call it a harsh reality but children rarely learn from what we preach, they learn from our actions. Take this for an example, an anonymous user on the internet confessed that her child would hit her younger sibling while playing. Her explanation in defence was, “We are playing ‘mommy”.</p><p><br></p><p>We all aspire to become perfect parents for our kids because we want to inculcate values in them that would make them better human beings. But the larger and the more significant question is do we exhibit that kind of discipline in our behaviour?</p><p><br></p><p>We expect our children to use modern-day gadgets judiciously but do we supervise our use of these products? We want our kids to watch their words and actions when angry but do we manage our anger appropriately? We want our kids to show decorum and discipline with their daily routine but are we exhibiting ourselves as an example to do the same?</p><p><br></p><p>Dr Haim Ginott, a renowned child psychologist, pointed out, “Children are like wet cement. Whatever falls on them makes an impression.” If we give the child an environment of hostility he is more likely to learn to fight. An environment of ridicule and shame can lead to the child resulting being shy and guilty. But similarly, if the child had always lived with tolerance, he learns to become more patient. If he has always received praise, he learns the virtue of appreciation.</p><p><br></p><p>What is important during the child’s growing years is that we model the kind of behaviour we expect our children to be. It is impossible to not be stressed or angry under circumstances. But when the parents manage their stress and anger appropriately, the message is loud and clear to the kids that it is normal to feel negative at times but it is only the positive attitude towards solving these problems that reap good results.</p><p><br></p><p>Parents should ‘speak’ and ‘do’ what they expect out of their children. Saying statements like. “I love all kinds of food”, “I love playing outdoors”, “Let’s clean up the mess together”, “Let’s help little brother/sister with eating the food”. These kinds of statements bring about assurance in the kids and before indulging in the wrong they are forced to do what think what they have been taught.</p><p><br></p><p>The brains of children are like sponges. They absorb everything without discriminating information into right or wrong. Let's set ourselves as better examples for our children. Let's exhibit what we want our children to be.</p>

Are we exhibiting what we want our kids to be? Call it a harsh reality but children rarely learn from what we preach, they learn from our actions.

<ul><li>Protect your child from too much sun. The sun's rays are strongest between 10 AM and 4 PM so avoid taking your child out during these hours.</li><li>If you plan to take your child outside, apply sunscreen to them which provides protection against UV rays. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going outside. Reapply every two hours and after being in the water or sweating. Use sunscreen on cloudy days too as the sun’s rays pass through the clouds as well. Do not skip sunscreen if you are taking your child out; only skip if your child is wearing clothes that cover his/her entire body.</li><li>If your baby is less than a year old, keep them out of the sun as much as you can. Dress your baby in lightweight, light-coloured clothing with long sleeves and long pants. Make sure to cover their head.</li><li>Select sunglasses for babies and children that provide 100% UV protection.</li><li>When it is too hot and humid, children should not play outside or exercise for more than 30 minutes at a time.</li><li>Make sure your child drinks plenty of fluids even if they are not thirsty. Water is best of all. Dehydration can cause fatigue and muscle cramping.</li><li>Keep your child covered at all times when outside or sit in the shade as your child’s sensitive skin can get a sunburn. If your child gets sunburn, the best remedy is to use a cold compress for the affected area. If it’s too much, consult a doctor.</li><li>Never leave your kids unattended in a closed car even for a few minutes and even if the windows are open. The temperature inside a closed car increases too quickly and can be fatal for a child.</li></ul>
