Question
My child started exhibiting head-shaking behavior at the beginning of last semester, which lasts for a few seconds each time. This behavior disappears during the holidays, but reappears at the start of the new semester, especially when asked to do homework or scolded. What could be the reasons for this behavior? How should it be handled?
Answer
The head-shaking behavior in children may be related to psychological and academic stress. It is recommended that parents increase interaction and care with their children and avoid excessive pressure. At the same time, it is suggested to visit a hospital for EEG and MRI exams to understand the child’s brain development and ensure their health.
