Question
Lately, my child has developed a habit of biting their fingernails. As a parent, how should I handle this?
Answer
Biting nails in children may indicate feelings of tension, anxiety, or a lack of security. As a parent, it is important to provide more care and psychological support to your child and try to identify the causes of their anxiety to help them build confidence and a sense of security. At the same time, you can take some measures to help your child break this habit, such as diverting their attention, providing alternative activities, or using behavioral correction techniques.
