Why are children’s grades getting worse and worse?

Many parents have questions like, \”Why did my child study well before, but now his grades are getting worse and worse?\”, \”Why did my child, who was very smart when he was a child, become more and more stupid now?\” Children who were very smart before , but now they are becoming more and more \”stupid\”. Could it be said that people\’s IQ will decrease? Harvard University once conducted a 75-year study. Through a large number of follow-up surveys, it was found that there is a close relationship between children\’s IQ and family environment. Some incorrect behaviors of parents will lead to a decrease in children\’s IQ in some aspects and change their children\’s IQ. fool! As children grow up, parents should be wary of these four behaviors that can easily make children slowly become stupid. There are no good living habits. Data from a survey of 12,000+ primary school students by the Department of Education shows that the average overall score of students who eat breakfast every day is nearly 28 points higher than that of students who do not often eat breakfast! Children who eat breakfast perform better in certain academic subjects and are less likely to be absent from class or be late than children who do not eat breakfast. A study by the University of Pennsylvania also found that children who eat breakfast every day have significantly higher IQs. A healthy breakfast will provide the body with essential carbohydrates, which will help our brain function properly and improve brain alertness and concentration. If a child does not eat breakfast, he will feel very hungry at 9 or 10 o\’clock in the morning, and the brain will not be able to concentrate, which will affect the child\’s state in class, which will in turn affect the decline of grades. In addition to poor eating habits, lack of sleep can also affect a child\’s IQ. There is a \”Sadev Sleep Experiment\” in which 77 fourth- and sixth-grade students were divided into two groups: the first group slept half an hour more than usual, and the second group slept half an hour less than usual. The neurological function test four days later came to a surprising conclusion: the performance of a sleepy sixth grader was approximately equal to that of a fourth grader. In other words, one hour less sleep equals two years of lost learning and development! A child\’s lack of sleep and sleepiness in class will seriously affect the child\’s listening state, thereby affecting the child\’s academic performance. If you are not clear-headed, you will always feel groggy. Your brain thinking is in a state of inhibition and cannot be excited. This will also affect the effect of learning and form a vicious cycle. It can be seen that irregular diet and lack of sleep will inhibit the child\’s brain, and the child will not be able to achieve high-quality learning status, resulting in worse and worse grades, which is what parents call \”getting stupider.\” . Parents must try their best to ensure the quality of their children\’s breakfast and sleep, and prevent their children from falling into poor living habits. Parents\’ verbal violence reduces children\’s IQ. In 2009, Harvard professor Teicher\’s team analyzed the brains of young adults and found that people who often suffered severe verbal violence from their parents had reduced connections between Wernicke\’s area and the prefrontal lobe, and decreased left temporal lobes. Gray matter volume increased in the superior gyrus, and both areas influence verbal IQ. At the same time, the size of their hippocampus and corpus callosum is reduced. Therefore, yelling will reduce children\’s memory, leading to incomplete development of the left and right brains, thus affecting IQ. If you observe carefully, you will find that when you yell, the child\’s reaction is usually dull, straight-eyed, and at a loss, even if you have scolded him for a while.After a while, the child still didn’t know what to do, and even made more and more mistakes. It is because, in the face of parents\’ scolding, children\’s spirits are highly tense, their hearts are full of fear, and their brains stop thinking at this time. If a child is in this state for a long time, the child will become unresponsive, sluggish in behavior, and become more and more \”stupid\”. Parents should learn to control their emotions. If you find yourself on the verge of rage, please leave the room immediately, be alone for a while, and then calm down for 10 minutes before communicating with your child, instead of scolding your child unscrupulously. Constantly suppressing children and labeling them negatively as \”useless things\”, \”Why are you so stupid?\”, \”Are you a pig?\”, \”You can\’t even do something so simple, you\’re so stupid!\”…these In fact, you are constantly suppressing the child\’s spirit and labeling the child as \”stupid\”. Psychologically, it is believed that when a person is labeled with a certain label, he will engage in self-impression management to make his behavior consistent with the content of the label. This is the famous \”labeling\” effect. American psychologist Becker also pointed out: \”Once people are labeled with a certain label, they will become the person labeled by the label.\” Children are young and have not yet formed self-judgment and independence. Their ability to think is highly dependent on their parents, so they strongly agree with their parents\’ evaluation of themselves. The labels parents attach to their children will become an important source of reference for him to form self-understanding. Once a child accepts the hint of the parent\’s \”stupid\” label, the child will recognize himself in the direction of the label, develop himself, and become a \”stupid\” child. Therefore, parents must reject any labeling behavior. If your child has a problem, please clearly tell your child where he went wrong, what he did right, and how to improve in the future. For irrelevant wrong behaviors, parents should downplay them and not pay too much attention to avoid deepening the child\’s impression of the wrong behavior and forming negative implications. I don’t like reading. Educator Su Homlins once said, “Why are some children bright and smart in childhood, but become dull in their adolescence? Because they can’t read!” He believes that students’ intellectual development depends on good education. Reading ability, if you are not good at reading, you are not good at thinking. A child who does not read is a potential poor student in learning. If the reading habit is not developed in early childhood, the child will obviously feel that the word reserve is insufficient when he enters the first or second grade, cannot form words and sentences, cannot read the text, and cannot understand the questions. In the \”third-grade landslide\” period, the first to see a sharp decline in performance are children who don\’t like to read. If a child does not develop the habit of reading long texts before fourth grade, and does not have the patience to finish reading a novel, it is likely that he will have difficulty developing such patience and ability throughout his life. However, if reading is not grasped during primary school, by junior high school, not only will the Chinese language performance decline, but the performance in other subjects will also be affected!

In a world where they cannot communicate with more diverse ideas, they cannotThey cannot obtain the latest knowledge and stagnate. Such people have narrow vision, small structure, narrow thinking, and limited knowledge. Over time, there will be a significant difference in the amount of knowledge and the depth of understanding of problems between people who love reading and those who don\’t, which is what we call the difference between \”stupid\” and \”smart\”. Studies have shown that 98% of children have similar IQs, and only 1% are geniuses. And for these 98% of children, there is a clear difference in IQ again in the later education. Therefore, as parents, instead of complaining that our children have become stupid, it is better to reflect on whether there are problems with our own education. Only when family education is done well can our children become smarter and smarter!
