Do you have a youngster who is constantly vying for your attention? Does their constant need for attention depress and overwhelm you at times? If that's the case, you're not alone. In families, attention-seeking is likely the most common misbehavior.

"Look at me, Mum," and its many permutations, develop a nervous habit that annoys parents. It's great to offer your undivided attention to your children, but there are limits to how much you can provide. Unfortunately, seeking attention becomes a hard-to-break pattern of behavior.

Children who demand attention all of the time are often shunned. Their thinking is that "I am not good enough."

According to Balson, the remedy to discouragement was to enhance the amount of encouragement a kid or young person received.

Encouragement focuses on the processes of improvement, effort, enjoyment, and participation and means "to give heart or courage."

The last of these processes, contribution, is the most powerful. In most cases, children belong to their families in two ways. They are either active members or have a reputation for bad behavior. If a child is known for bad behavior, their usual mode of operation is "If I'm not appreciated, at least they'll know I'm here."

Is it more important to be noticed or to be appreciated? There is no competition. When it comes to making youngsters feel good about themselves, sincere appreciation is the real deal.

Why does gratitude work?

Appreciation is a powerful motivator. Even teens, though their faces may not indicate it, will typically respond to a parent's compliments.

There's a link between appreciation and the elderly brain. Our old brain, often known as our survival brain, is responsible for keeping us secure. Because our safety can only be guaranteed if we are a part of a group, parental admiration helps children feel safe, keeping them from resorting to negative attention-seeking behavior to feel included.

Appreciation is approval taken to the next level.

I admire what you do and express support. Appreciation entails a lot more. It demonstrates how one person's behavior affects another on an emotional level, which has a more significant influence.

Appreciation is an excellent method to influence a child's behavior positively. "Thank you so much for putting away your toys without asking. It makes everything so much easier for me." A child's dopamine (feel-good chemical) response is frequently elicited by this type of comment, which means they are more inclined to repeat the behavior to mimic the experience.

What is the process of appreciation?

When it comes to expressing gratitude, there are four rules to keep in mind:

It has to be meaningful.

For appreciation to be practical, it must be genuine and tied to a specific action.

It should inform the youngster about the emotional consequences of their actions.

Your child should be able to tell that their actions have made you happy, whether through words ("It makes me happy") or nonverbals (a grin, a hug, or a high-five).

It has to be authentic.

You can't fake sincerity with a child or a young person because they are generally good mood detectives.

It's preferable if the variances are minor.

Appreciation isn't a one-size-fits-all kind of thing. Appreciation should be expressed in a manner that is appropriate for the situation and your child. Consider drafting a thank-you message to express your gratitude for something exceptional. Boys prefer personal encouragement over public recognition, so consider when and when you encourage them.

Advantageous side effects

There are numerous advantages to expressing gratitude for specific behavior. A positive parent comment contributes to a healthy, happy family environment. Appreciation may change both the giver and the receiver's moods, and it's a behavior that can be passed down through generations if youngsters practice it. As a result, parent appreciation is a behavior that may be learned at any age.
