What is mental illness? Mental illness refers to the phenomenon that a person deviates from the track of social life norms in thinking, emotion and behavior due to mental tension and interference.
Once a child forms Internet addiction, there are more disadvantages besides neglecting his studies and damaging his health. There is not a child with internet addiction who doesn't want to quit. However, repeated failures and repeated attempts to stop will make children feel out of control, fall behind in their studies, and be disappointed in their families, which will also lead to greater mental depression and self-disappointment.
How to Help Children Quit Internet Addiction
First, I want to quit the net, and my kung fu is outside the net.
A child who can't use the Internet healthily, his offline life is also unhealthy. Whether children's offline life is colorful, whether children can gain a sense of value from their studies or other fields, and whether they have a strong sense of initiative and self-development have direct preconditions for whether children are addicted to the internet.
Therefore, whether it is to prevent children from developing Internet addiction or to help them get rid of it, we should pay attention to guiding children's offline life, including providing them with more opportunities to accept new things and new fields, such as cultivating a certain talent and participating in sports.
Second, if new water does not come, old water will not go.
The best way to get rid of the shackles of old habits is to establish new habits. New water does not come, old water does not go, and the best update is to introduce new content. The best way to prevent children from surfing the Internet is to direct their interest and energy to other places.
Steps to quit internet addiction
The first step is to unify understanding.
Don't think that children with internet addiction are particularly in love with the internet. Many times, they rely on the internet rather than like it, and they can't help it. So we're here? Angry without arguing? In the meantime, there should be? Sad for his misfortune? Feelings.
Many parents rudely stop and severely reprimand their children's internet addiction, which often doesn't work and will be counterproductive. Therefore, the wisest thing to do is to stop interfering with children's surfing the Internet, find a quiet time for children and talk to them calmly. Don't talk about his family's expectations and neglect of his studies, because these pressures are too great, which will make children more addicted to the internet because of escape. We should actively awaken the child to understand his current state. The following questioning methods and cut-in angles have achieved good results in practice.
Are you happy?
When you are playing online games or surfing the Internet, do you think about what you will face when you get off the Internet for a moment? Do you feel insecure because of this?
Do you like the present state of life?
Is life what you really want now?
Have you ever thought that one day you will stop surfing the Internet all day and live a life that makes you proud?
Have you ever thought that quitting Internet addiction may not be as difficult as you think, but your own method is wrong?
Our goal is to guide children to review their current state, listen to their inner positive voices, and initially establish self-confidence, thus stimulating their inner motivation to quit the internet. We must make it clear that what we hate is not children, but the dependence inertia on the network that has been formed in children. To form a United front with children and eliminate this * * * on children? Inertia Once you can reach a unified understanding with your child in this regard, you will be half successful.
Step two, make a plan.
After a unified understanding, you can make plans with your children every one or two days. The content of the plan depends on the specific situation of the child, but the principle is gradual.
The first is to shorten children's online time in stages. You can take five days as a stage, and the proportion of shortening the time in the first stage is probably below 10%.
The reason why the goal is set low is to build children's self-confidence and find their sense of self-control.
In the second stage, it is necessary to increase the difficulty and reduce the time by no more than 15%. And so on, so that children will spend less than half an hour online every day.
Secondly, we should create other life contents for children, such as learning a new thing for half an hour every day, or getting in touch with a new field, such as playing basketball and learning Go.
The third step is to strictly implement it.
The goal can be low, but the implementation must be strict. At this time, parents must be firmly involved, on the one hand, to arouse children's original ideas of making plans, on the other hand, to implement them firmly.
Children really want to quit internet addiction, but because? Addiction? Role, he can do things against his will. At this time, no matter how the children object and ask, we all want it. Hold on. . The hardest part is actually in the beginning When the plan has just been implemented, we should firmly establish our own principles and break the illusion of children's accommodation.
