Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day I would like to impress and stress few things. 1. First and foremost , it requires lot of patience and perseverance on the part of parents to manage such behaviour. 2. It requires understanding of child psychology 3. It requires empathy of the part of parents( putting oneself in place of kids and understanding them). From the description of the behavior its likely that she has tendency towards introvert behavior. It basically happens because of being restricted to indoor activity and less exposure to outdoor games and activities. Other factor could be due to feeling of isolation, possibly due to not able to interact with children of their own age group. Mood tantrums or behavioral tantrums(crying for small things), could be due to introvert behavior and also not having friends of the same age group with whom they can interact. Its important to remember that behavior of children is usually a response to surrounding environment including immediate family members and neighborhood. In case of your child its not much cause for concern, things can be taken care. The behavior of child is to be interpreted in light of other factors, including the family members, siblings, friends, other day to day activity of the child and overal performance of the child. A visit to Pediatrician is worth. It will be very much re-assuring and many of the times the children them-self express well to the Pediatrician when they develop good comfort level and rapport with the Pediatrician. In my practice i have many of the parents presenting with similar complaints. Many of the the kids operated by me, usually are seen by me even for medical problem. Over these many years the kids have developed a comfort level, and they share many things which they would hesitate sharing sometimes with parents.
