![]() How to help a little brontophobe? To enable the child to get rid of fear, parents should definitely discuss this problem with him, and try to find out what exactly scares the baby so much. But you should know that the remaining fear in the future can greatly complicate a person's life. Some parents believe that such behavior is best left unattended so that the child realizes that there is nothing dangerous and scary. If we are talking about a child, then a frightened baby hangs on his mother’s neck, and cannot calm down until the thunderstorm subsides. If a thunderstorm begins, a brontophobe, even being in his own house, where it is completely safe, tries to hide more securely, and best of all, hide in a closet, or go to bed, covering himself with a blanket. Children, as you know, love to listen to what adults are talking about, and draw their own, not always correct conclusions. And although such episodes are rare, they are often discussed in television programs, and the information is repeated many times in the conversation of adults. ![]() Plus, there are cases when lightning really hit people. In ancient times, such natural phenomena were regarded as the wrath of the gods.
