Children may respond to stress in different ways in crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes being clingier, anxious, angry, withdrawing and bedwetting.
Here are some tips provided by the World Health Organization that you can follow to reduce your child's stress:
- Listen to their concerns and give them extra love
- Give them more time and attention
- Speak to them kindly and supportively, while reassuring them
- Keep children close to their parents and family
- Keep to regular routines and schedules as much as possible
- Give them clear information about how to reduce their risk of being infected
