Question
My child is 7 years old. When the school shows educational videos, such as car accidents and road safety, she is the only one who gets sad and cries. When we watched puppet shows as a child, she also cried. What could be the reason? Do we need to see a psychologist?
Answer
Based on the situation you described, it should be considered that the child’s reaction might be due to factors such as shyness, which could be related to various factors including education, living environment, and life experiences from a young age. If possible, you can visit the mental health department of a regular public hospital for consultation. A specialist doctor can provide psychological counseling and treatment based on the actual situation. Parents should also strengthen care and nurture the child’s courage, enhancing their psychological quality training.
