明天又要带我儿子去医院打针，想想我就头疼。他就怕打针，每次打针都哭得特别厉害。 记得我女儿小时候，带她去医院打针，刚开始，她害怕得要哭，我就小声地和护士说我女儿很勇敢，一点儿也不怕打针，女儿听了以后马上就不哭了。 原来鼓励和表扬对小孩儿挺有用的，下次我也试试。 不过表扬也是一门艺术，表扬千万不要太多，过多的表扬可能会给孩子带来压力。不仅起不到鼓励的作用，还可能让孩子怀疑自己的能力，变得没有信心。 那怎么表扬孩子才会更有效果呢？ 我认为表扬要及时，而且表扬不仅仅要看结果，更要看过程，这样才能鼓励他的积极性，让他变得勇敢，不怕困难。

Tomorrow I have to take my son to the hospital for a shot again, and just thinking about it gives me a headache. He's afraid of shots; every time he gets a shot, he cries really hard. I remember when my daughter was little, I took her to the hospital for a shot. At first, she was so scared she was about to cry. I quietly told the nurse that my daughter was very brave and not afraid of shots at all. After my daughter heard that, she stopped crying right away. Turns out encouragement and praise are quite useful for kids. I'll try it next time, too. But praise is also an art, and you must not give too much; excessive praise may put pressure on children. Not only does it fail to encourage, it may also make children doubt their own abilities and lose confidence. So how can we praise children more effectively? I think praise should be timely, and it should focus not only on the result but more on the process. Only in this way can it encourage his initiative, make him brave, and not afraid of difficulties.
