Parents should give their children a warm embrace after they are scared, and at the same time, they can use gentle words and actions to soothe them, touching their heads and patting their backs to make them feel safe and slowly calm down. You can also use games, stories, and food to distract your child’s attention. For children who are highly suggestible, ritualistic actions or words can be used for suggestive therapy. For children who are severely frightened and have violent reactions that are difficult to calm down through reassurance, some medication can be used under medical supervision.
