Helping children develop selfregulation skills from "summary" of Helping Children Succeed by Paul Tough

Children need to develop self-regulation skills to succeed in school and in life. These skills help them control their impulses, manage their emotions, and focus on tasks. Without these skills, children may struggle academically and socially. Parents and teachers can help children develop self-regulation skills by providing a supportive and nurturing environment. This includes setting clear expectations, providing positive reinforcement, and offering guidance and support when needed. One way to help children develop self-regulation skills is to teach them how to set and achieve goals. By breaking tasks down into smaller steps and setting achievable goals, children can learn to manage their time and stay focused on their objectives. Another important aspect of developing self-regulation skills is teaching children how to cope with stress and frustration. By teaching children healthy coping mechanisms, such as deep breathing or positive self-talk, they can learn to handle challenging situations more effectively. In addition, providing children with opportunities to practice self-regulation skills in real-life situations can help them strengthen these skills over time. By allowing children to make choices and solve problems independently, they can learn to regulate their emotions and behaviors in a variety of contexts.
  1. Helping children develop self-regulation skills is essential for their long-term success. By providing a supportive environment, teaching goal-setting and coping strategies, and allowing children to practice these skills in real-life situations, parents and teachers can help children thrive academically and socially.
