She added, during a telephone interview with the Extra News channel, that emotional disturbances often occur due to the environment surrounding the child, such as the presence of problems between parents, and once this environment is changed, there is a noticeable improvement in the child’s psyche.
“It is possible to know the presence of psychological disorders of the child when he faces many problems with his colleagues or there is a noticeable decline in his academic level,” she added.
And she added, “Parents should be keen to identify the requirements of the child at every age and try to provide these needs to the fullest in order to avoid the occurrence of psychological problems.”
She concluded, “One of the most important stages in a child’s life is the first year, and the care, attention, and adequate communication available to him with the mother.”
