Helping your child overcome fear
By PATRICIA M. RATHBUN Extension Agent Home Ec All of us, even as adults have been frightened —of snakes, spiders, strange noises, or dark rooms. Many of our fears are not like adults — they cannot always distinguish fantasy from reality; they confuse animate and inanimate objects; they have not had many opportunities to cope with fears. However you can help your child overcome fears. By talking about fears at your child’s level of understanding you can be an invaluable soiree of information and comfort. Openly discussing fears will reassure your child that having fears is a normal part of growing up. Fears in childhood are normal; many are even helpful. You want your child to develop a healthy

fear — or at least a caution —of strangers, fire, busy highways, etc. But you also want to help your child overcome fears of irrational or unrealistic dangers. Most childhood fears are either fears that are present at birth, developmental fears that appear at certain ages, or fears learned from parents or traumatic experiences. The first two categories of fears usually follow a general pattern that begins at birth. At birth, most infants are afraid of loud noises, sudden movements and abrupt changes in surroundings. Almost all children grow out of these innate fears. Within the first year, infants develop fears of strangers and of separation. By seven or eight months, a child can distinguish between the familiar and the unfamiliar. At about three, children develop symbolic

and imagined fears. It’s important for parents to recognize the fears their children have. Once recognized, steps can be taken to help the child deal with fears. Many fears disappear naturally as the child’s reasoning and mental capabilities increase. Infant fears of unfamiliar people and objects disappear early. Preschool fears of imaginary creatures gradually give way to concrete realistic concerns about school, pain, injury and illness. Even some fears intense enough to be labeled as phobias disappear because of developmental growth. You can help your child cope with fears of childhood by using the following techniques. — Talk with your child about his or her fears. Communication can be a source of information, comfort and encouragement. — Give your child accurate information about fears. Do not use confusing or fear — producing explanations to establish obedience with your child. — Select good children’s books about fears to read with your child. Books about children's fears can provide honest information and clarify misinformation your child may have heard. They can assure your child that he or she is not the only one experiencing fears. — Help your child to discover that some frightening situations can be changed. Turning on the lights when afraid of the dark is a way your child can control and change his environment. All of us have experienced fears. As sensitive, caring parents, you want to protect your children from fearful situations. But they cannot always be protected from being afraid. However, parents can reduce children’s fearfulness by helping them express their fears and distinguish real from imaginary dangers.
