7. Wait For Answers
When asking your introverted child a question, don’t demand an answer right away. Give him time to listen, digest and form a response. Introverted children don’t work well under pressure, so practice patience with yours. It might help to ask the question a second time, but don’t tell your child to hurry up and respond.
8. Give Time Warnings
Just as introverted children need time to process information, they need time to prepare for arriving or leaving somewhere. Don’t expect an introvert to drop what they’re doing and go. Give your child a 15 minute warning before heading out, and continue in 5 minute intervals until departure time.
9. No Public Embarrassment
Nobody likes to be embarrassed- especially in public. But children who are more extroverted can usually deal with it and move on. Introverted children, however, will harbor the embarrassment and often relive it in other situations. It’s fine to be silly and playful, but don’t take things too far by embarrassing your introvert in front of others.
