  In clinical practice, we often encounter such children, who are reluctant to eat all day long, more than 2 years old parents coaxed, fed only barely able to eat a little, a little more to eat some nausea, and even vomiting, over time, the child is both thin and short, parents are very anxious, by the doctor’s examination found malnutrition; there are also such children, parents reflect that the child is relatively childish, very dependent on parents, everything is self-centered, impulsive, suspected The child is suspected of being mentally retarded and is examined by a doctor for childish behavior but normal intelligence.  What is the reason for the child’s reluctance to eat or the child’s relatively childish behavior compared to children of the same age? Psychological studies confirm that it is caused by parents’ excessive attention to their children. Originally, parents’ proper care, love, encouragement, help and support for their children is beneficial to their growth, but when such care and love exceeds a certain limit, it will develop into excessive attention. At present, due to the predominance of only children, parents pay great attention to the growth of their children, and many parents are eager to see their children become dragons and phoenixes, resulting in the phenomenon of excessive attention in the process of raising children is very common.  Tic disorders mostly manifest as blinking, frowning, nose shrugging, crooked mouth, head shaking, head nodding, shoulder shrugging, hand and foot shaking, twisting, vocalization, obscene language, etc. They are often misdiagnosed as ADHD, conjunctivitis, pharyngitis, hypocalcemia, epilepsy, chorea and other diseases. Some studies have shown that tic disorders are misdiagnosed as ADHD the most often.  The main manifestations of overconcern are overprotection, overwhelming and overcontrol. Overprotection and substitution are manifested in many things within the child’s reach that parents always do instead, such as the child wants to eat by himself, but parents want to feed the child to eat, etc., usually fear that the child will be hurt and disease, this is not allowed to move, that is not allowed to move, the child has been 6 months, except for the hospital vaccination has never been out of the door, especially some older parents can be said to be overprotective of the child to an extreme degree. This deprives the child of the opportunity to practice, so that the child can not get exercise, seriously hindering the healthy growth of children.  This deprives the child of practice, prevents the child from exercising, and seriously hinders the child’s healthy growth. Over-control is manifested by the parent’s 24/7 surveillance of the child, which restricts the child’s activities to the living room and at best to the parent’s line of sight, resulting in infantilization, decreased social skills, and emotional, behavioral, and behavioral problems.  Specifically, excessive attention to the healthy growth of children include the following six aspects, it can make the child poor ability to live independently; socialization, poor communication with peers during childhood, social difficulties in adulthood, psychosexual immaturity, manifested in addition to parents, no one can love up; self-centered, do not understand others, more will not understand others; do things impulsively, regardless of the consequences; bivalent sexual dependence, on the one hand, to On the one hand, they are dependent on their parents, and on the other hand, they are dissatisfied with them.  Generally speaking, excessive attention comes mainly from the mother of the child, and is prevented by training and counseling for married women and mothers.  Of course, it should be noted that when encountering a child with the above-mentioned conditions, it is important to seek professional medical attention to rule out other diseases, and not just assume that it is caused by over-attention, especially if the child’s situation does not improve after changing the over-attention.
