Signs of Children Experiencing Learning Difficulties

Children who experience learning difficulties often make parents stress and get a bad seal at the school. But parents need to realize that children who have difficulty learning is not a disease and this can be handled.

"The difficulty of learning is not a disease but a sign of brain development that is still less than optimal," said Ike R Sugianto, Psi, a child psychologist in the release of Development Disorders Identification seminar.

Ike tells us there are several traits that indicate children experiencing learning difficulties, namely:
1. Grades up and down
2. Difficult set of activities or goods
3. Easy to forget
4. Often loses things
5. Daydreaming
6. Careless and inaccurate
7. Not motivated to learn
8. Quitter
9. It's hard to sit quietly for long periods of time
10. Many spoke
11. It's hard to wait their turn
12. Like mischievous, fun and impulsive

Even so there are things that should be avoided because it will not help children overcome learning difficulties such as:

1. Scold, punish or humiliate
2. Labeling or negative designation
3. Increase training and tutoring
4. Lure prize

"But parents need not worry as learning difficulties can be addressed," said Ike who has been awarded the International Licensed Brain Gym International and has been the RMT International Consultant.

What can parents do?

1. Accept the existing situation, in this case is not silent, bukang deny, stop blaming yourself, others or God, and stop crying over yourself
2. To examine whether psychological, motor, neurological, eye, ENT and Allergy
3. Committed 100 percent to undergo therapy program and change the mindset and parenting
