Does “strict discipline” exacerbate Tourette’s?

Moderator: Parents “strengthen the discipline” of children with Tourette’s syndrome, but will have the opposite effect? Ren Yanling: Yes. Parents who bring their children to our clinic, we will tell the parents, the child can not control themselves, you stare at the child and tell him not to squeeze his eyes, do not nod, he can temporarily control, and you look at it again after a while, his symptoms will be aggravated. The child can control it for a short period of time, but he can’t control it for a long period of time. Moreover, if you remind your child often, he will also notice the symptom, and he will be constantly worried and nervous, thinking that he is suffering from a very serious disease, which will increase the child’s psychological burden.
