How to Raise a Resilient Child

July 14, 2022 by Clare Leave a Comment

Collaborative Post

With a world inundated with a range of different problems, your child will need to learn to adapt quickly. At a young age, your child won’t be exploring complicated issues, but they will need to work on how they handle responsibility, overcome problems and work independently. 

To help your child work on their understanding of resilience, here are some top tips from this independent school in Hertfordshire.

Involve a range of activities

Like most kids will be used to, you’re going to want to explore a range of different activities with your child. The more activities you explore, the likelihood your child is going to be able to manage their own expectations better. Give your child the space to choose their own activities as well, which can make them feel more motivated to have fun, explore other things and feel happy about completing them as well.

Ask open questions

To help your child understand their own limits, you can ask your child a range of open-ended questions. This means that your child can answer in a way that suits them and they’re not tied to the same questions and answers they may often get in school. Give them the time and space to answer these questions and work on their understanding of more complicated questions as well. Open questions give your child the chance to explore other subjects within what you’re asking of them, which can make them more inquisitive and engaged.

Teach them how to handle compromise

Being able to manage when things go wrong is also a core part of being resilient. Have your child work on their understanding of managing compromise. It’ll really help them manage their expectations, as well as being able to handle negativity. Not everything will go your way, and so showing your child that they will face situations like this will naturally build their resilience.

Push them out of their comfort zone

The same routine and the same happenings will only train a child in how to follow the rules and never push out of that. Showing your child ways to get out of that comfortable area will give them the ability to manage those issues when they arise. Give them the time, space and guidance to grow in these areas. Taking a trip to a new place is a good example of testing the waters, or going to try out a new activity with your child to see how they handle it.
