When a child reaches the age of 9, there will be a very big change. The age of 9 is also a very important and critical period in life. They began to think, \”Why should I do this?\” \”What exactly is this thing?\” \”How do I do it well?\” That is, they began to think about the three final questions of life: Who am I? Where do I go? How do I get to? They began to explore more outwards, try new ways to do things, have more ideas, and also care about the opinions of others. Many parents are confused about this transition. A 9-year-old child has gone from \”childish\” to \”sensible\”, and behind being sensible there are also characteristics that parents find troublesome. Inadvertently, the little angel carries a devil\’s tail. Piaget pointed out in his theory of cognitive development that the age of 9 is a critical period for children\’s cognitive development. At this time, children begin to transform from the \”concrete operation stage\” to the \”formal operation stage\”, which means that they begin to have the ability to abstract thinking and logical reasoning. This is not only reflected in mathematical and logical thinking, but also in their beginning to understand complex social relationships and moral concepts. As they develop, some become sensitive. With the enhancement of independent thinking ability and self-awareness, 9-year-old children begin to pay more attention to personal feelings and ideas. This is the best time to develop independent thinking ability. And what do parents need to do most? In the process of children\’s continuous exploration, many of our parents habitually use commands and parental authority to discipline their children. This can easily lead to direct confrontation. If they were not well connected in the previous few years, what their parents taught them may not be acceptable. And some parents will keep their children\’s world small because they are nervous about their children. Some children are born with a big picture, a big world. Parents in a small world are often very nervous when they meet children in a big world. Where is the connection between parents and children? In the process of growing up, allow them to be different from others, support them to explore and practice, and explore more with them after the age of 9, especially their inner world. In this way, when they face pressure in study or life outside, they know how to change and how to face it, and even improve from receiving love to enjoying what they should do, thus stimulating children\’s active thirst for knowledge and making them easily influenced by their parents. guidance. The stimulation of inner motivation allows children to move forward bravely and easily become academic leaders. On the contrary, the child may suddenly become silent one day, unwilling to deal with others, and may become emotional over a trivial matter, etc. Every child is a seed, but they bloom at different times. Maybe your child will never be able to bloom because he is a towering tree. Don\’t focus on other people\’s flowers. If you can support them and become a towering tree, that is the happiest thing for them and the best expression of their value. The year of 9 years old is full of variables, and it is also the eve of the explosion of a child\’s inner potential. As guides, parents need to observe carefully and guide patiently so that their children can successfully cross this critical threshold.
