HYPERACTIVITY

Hyperactivity is a behavioral disorder of children, first described in 1902 by Still. These are children who develop an intense motor activity, which move continuously, without all this activity has a purpose. Going from one place to another and may start a task, but quickly leave to start another, which in turn again left unfinished. This hyperactivity increases when in the presence of others, especially those who do not have sex frequently. By contrast, decreased activity when alone.

Profile of a hyperactive child

Treatment depends on the individual case.The most widely used drug treatment are stimulants, which serve to help the child to concentrate better, and sedatives in cases where the child displays psychotic features.Psychotherapeutic treatment is designed to improve family and school, promoting better integration of the child at a time, that apply behavior modification techniques.The cognitive therapy is based on the approach to tasks, where children learn to plan their actions and improve their internal language. From age 7, the internal language assumes a role of self-regulation, these children are not as developed. To perform any task is taught to first assess all the possibilities of it, to concentrate and see the results after partial and complete global.Parents tend to define a hyperactive child as immature, rude and thug. His behavior causes conflicts in the family, disapproval and rejection. They are irritating and frustrating in terms of educational attainment of parents, and some children tend to social isolation. This disorder is detected and before the 7 years and some have more severe symptoms than others. One thing to keep in mind is that if parents bicker over-the hyperactive child may be encouraging a lack of self-esteem on their part (especially if you criticize him for everything he does) and fed back into the disorder, as the small eventually strive not behave, they will always end up scolding him whatever he does.

Treatment of hyperactivitySymptoms may be classified as attention deficit, hyperactivity and impulsivity:- Difficult to resist distraction.- Difficulty maintaining attention on a long job.- Difficulty to attend selectively.- Difficulty to explore complex stimuli in an orderly manner.- Excessive or inappropriate motor activity.- Difficulty to finish work already begun.- Difficulty staying seated and / or still in a chair.- Presence of disruptive behaviors (with a destructive nature.)- Failure to suppress behavior: they always say what they think, not repressed.- Inability to postpone gratifying things: they can not stop doing the things they like in the first place and all they can postpone the duties and obligations. I always end up doing what they want first.- Impulsivity Cognitive precipitation, even at the thought. In games it's easy to beat because of this, because things do not think twice before acting, do not provide, and even answering questions before they are formulated.

Consequences for the family with a hyperactive childHyperactivity in children is quite common. It is estimated that affects approximately 3 percent of children under seven years and is more common in boys than in girls (given in 4 children per female). In 1914, Dr. Tredgold argued that the causes are due to minimal brain dysfunction, a sleeping sickness which is affected in the area of behavior, hence the consequent compensatory hyperkinesis, explosive in voluntary activity, impulsivity and inability organic to sit still. Subsequently, in 1937, C. Bradley discovered the therapeutic effects of amphetamine in hyperactive children. Based on the above theory, given them a brain stimulant medications (such as Benzedrine), showing a marked improvement of symptoms.

Symptoms in a hyperactive child- 0 to 2 years. Clonic discharges during sleep rhythm problems during sleep and food, for short periods of sleep and waking with a start, resistance to usual care, high reactivity to auditory stimuli and irritability.- 2 to 3 years. Immaturity expressive language, excessive motor activity, lack of awareness of danger and prone to many accidents.- 4 to 5 years. Social adjustment problems, disobedience and difficulties in following rules.- From 6 years. Impulsivity, attention deficits, school failure, antisocial behavior and social adjustment problems.

Causes of childhood hyperactivityAccording to Still, these children are particularly problematic, have a destructive spirit, are insensitive to punishment, restless and nervous. They are also difficult to educate children, because they rarely can maintain for long the focus on something, which often have academic problems despite having a normal IQ. They are very impulsive and disobedient, they often do what their parents or teachers tell them or even do the opposite of what they are told. They are very stubborn and obstinate, while having a very low threshold of tolerance for frustration, so much stress to get what they want. This coupled with his moods and his sudden and intense impulsive and easily excitable, do they believe many tensions at home or at school. In general, children are unable to sit still at times it is necessary that they are. A child who moves a lot at recess and play time is normal. For these children, what happens is that you are still in class or in other specific tasks.

STAGES OF THE DRAWING

The picture of the boys will convey various stages that may, to some extent, related to age. Yes we can say that a boy of 7 years must have passed the stage of the doodle, but do not think that the day of the 4 met the doodle will leave to make a puppet, because this is a flowcharting and the development of each child is different.That said, we can explore the stages of children's drawing:1. Scribbling stage: From the first gripping a pencil about 2 years to 4 years or so, the children pass through three different times. First disordered scribbles drawn a kind of scratches on the sheet on which they have no control that allows them to begin and end, and therefore it often remains on the table on which is supported by the paper. Later, unable to control a bit more movement and can stop and take the line to where they want during the course of their doodles. Finally, the scribble name appears as the child begins to attribute a meaning to what you drew and then says he made "a dog", "car" or "mama", even though none of this is recognizable in drawing.

2. Preesquemática stage: It is approximately 4 to 7 years and is characterized by a conscious search for a way to draw upon. It is during this stage when the magical moment occurs in which mom or dad will recognize the traits of the child in order that he claims to have represented. Most commonly, this is the first drawing the human figure, which initially is typically represented with a circle and two lines vertically out of it and the child named as "legs", "arms" or "hands" . These "head-feet" or "tadpole" appear between 4 and 5 years and are more complex, adding two other lines by way of arms, a circle between the legs by way of the abdomen and later, body.
3. Schematic stage: going from 7 to 9 years and forms become much more defined. And at 7 years is expected to achieve to represent the human figure with details clearly identifiable by an adult, but the representation of the human figure is very personal and can be regarded as reflecting the development of the individual. At this stage the child may consider the relationship between objects and no longer works only with pictures of objects isolated from each other: this is evidenced by the appearance of the line representing the ground and provides a basis for the rest of the drawings. Later it appears "heaven." It is common at this stage to draw with transparency and, as if taking a radiograph, the furniture of a house can be seen through the wall.
4. The stage of Realism: Between 9 and 12 children that their drawings look more lifelike and graph objects, landscapes and feelings, looking and the third dimension, taking into account the overlap. Many times the attention to detail of the design is detrimental to the action and representations are static. The baseline is disappearing because they began to conceive the ground like a plane and what was the line of sky turns gradually become the horizon line.
5. The stage of pseudo-naturalism: Around 13 years drawing and has a spatial perspective and the human figure has become more complex including sexual traits. The final product is much more valued than before. The artistic development of the design continues on the extent to which the child is interested in it.General suggestions for all stages is important to note that parents should make available to the kids sheets and pencils for at least two years, which should never criticize their products or to anticipate the meaning of their drawings, ask "What you? "is most appropriate.For the dirty fact dirty or not an obstacle to be expressed through art should put up the table with newspaper or plastic hand-guard and take an old shirt to let the child explore different materials without fear of ruining her new clothes.In the event that is observed in children with a natural inclination towards drawing, it would be desirable to have the opportunity to take classes in a workshop to stimulate creativity.
