When I had a baby as Introvert, 🤍 His world... is quieter than I thought.

At first we were very worried.

Afraid he couldn't get along with his friends.

Afraid he'd be lonely.

Afraid that it will be difficult to grow up

But when we really started observing,

That's why I know

He's not without friends.

But he had "little friends... but very close."

He didn't dare.

But he just needs time before he opens up.

He is not silent for fear of the world.

But he just has a small world where he feels safe.

The day we stopped trying to change him,

And choose to stand next to him instead

That's why we know...

Being an Introvert is not a disadvantage at all. 🤍

... Read moreประสบการณ์ตรงจากการเลี้ยงลูกที่เป็น Introvert ทำให้เข้าใจว่าโลกของเด็กกลุ่มนี้อาจดูเงียบสงบกว่าเพื่อนๆ แต่ไม่ใช่ว่าพวกเขาโดดเดี่ยวเลยทีเดียว ตอนที่ลูกไม่วิ่งเข้าไปเล่นกับเด็กคนอื่นทันทีในสนามเด็กเล่น และเงียบๆ ยืนเกาะแม่อยู่นั้น เรากลับได้เห็นด้านที่น่ารักและลึกซึ้งของเขา คือเขาไม่ได้เป็นเด็กที่กลัวคนแปลกหน้า หรือไม่มีความมั่นใจ แต่เขาต้องการเวลาและความไว้วางใจในการเข้าสังคมอย่างค่อยเป็นค่อยไป การที่เขามี “เพื่อนน้อยแต่สนิทมาก” เป็นสิ่งที่ทำให้เขารู้สึกปลอดภัยและมีความสุข แตกต่างจากความเข้าใจเดิมๆ ที่คิดว่าเด็กต้องมีเพื่อนเยอะๆ ถึงจะดี การเปิดใจและเคารพในโลกส่วนตัวเล็กๆ นี้ ทำให้เราในฐานะแม่รู้สึกสงบและมั่นใจว่าลูกจะเติบโตมาได้ดี สิ่งสำคัญที่สุดสำหรับพ่อแม่ที่มีลูกเป็น Introvert คือการเลิกพยายามเปลี่ยนแปลงลูก และให้การสนับสนุนเขาในแบบของเขา ฟังลูก เข้าใจช่วงเวลาที่เขาต้องการอยู่คนเดียว และไม่บังคับให้เขาต้องเข้าสังคมอย่างเร่งด่วน เพราะนั่นคือการสร้างความรู้สึกปลอดภัยและช่วยให้ลูกมีพัฒนาการทางอารมณ์ที่ดี การเป็นแม่ของเด็ก Introvert ทำให้เราได้เรียนรู้ว่า ความเงียบไม่ได้แปลว่าโดดเดี่ยว และโลกเล็กๆ ของเขาก็มีความหมายมากพอที่จะทำให้เขามีความสุขและเติบโตอย่างมั่นคงในแบบของเขาเอง
