匿名: 我六岁的儿子Mikey最近对细菌非常着迷,总是问食物是否干净,这让我们全家都很困扰。我们家虽然很注重卫生,但并没有到洁癖的程度,儿子的这种行为让我们担心他会因此影响到他的社交和生活。 我们平时很注意卫生,比如饭前洗手,隔天洗澡,不碰狗粪,不吃掉在地上的食物等等。但是,儿子的这种行为也影响到了我的双胞胎女儿,她们也开始模仿他的行为。 我不确定是什么原因导致他这样,希望你能提供一些建议。 Dr. Kenner: 这位家长,你的儿子Mikey可能是在模仿你们的行为。你们平时注重卫生,他可能误解了细菌的概念,并因此产生恐惧。他可能从电视或其他渠道听到一些关于细菌的负面信息,比如不洗手会生病,从而加剧了他的恐惧。 此外,你们在描述细菌的危害时,可能使用了过于夸张的语言,例如说地板上充满了会致命的细菌。这会让孩子对细菌产生不必要的恐惧。 我建议你给他读一些关于细菌的科普书籍,让他了解细菌并非都是有害的,有些细菌对人体是有益的。同时,也要给他树立合理的卫生标准,让他明白偶尔吃掉在地上的食物并不会致命。 重要的是,要认真倾听他的想法,了解他恐惧的来源,并用科学的方式引导他克服恐惧。你可以和他一起讨论细菌的知识,让他了解细菌的益处和坏处,从而帮助他建立正确的认知。 如果他真的对细菌很感兴趣,说不定将来他会成为一名医生呢!
