Where do your kids stay when they are at home? The answer is likely to reveal a lot about your family.
While the “children of the living room” and “children’s room children” are not scientific terms, they have gained popularity on social media as the influencers of parents discuss the dynamics of their home compared to those that had grown up.
A living room child is a child who spends most of their time at home in common spaces such as living room, kitchen or dining room.
Meanwhile, a child in the bedroom spends most of the time in the intimacy provided by their space.
In “How married are you?!” Podcast, married co-host Yvette and Glen Henry discussed how their children were all in the kitchen while Yvette was preparing dinner.
“I’m like, you will have almost 4,000 square meters here and you are fine here. Just here,” Yvette laughed – but then she realized she was looking at the circumstances all wrong, remembering a discussion she had previously seen in a sheath for “living room families”.
“I don’t think I always appreciate what I have in this situation,” she realized. â € œ as the gift of all this community that we will look at one day again and say, â € ˜o my gosh, I miss this.
Whether your child is a living room or child in the bedroom goes deeper than where they spend their time – it’s ready why They spend their time in these spaces.
As Henrys explained in the video title on Instagram, which has won 1.2 million views, “living room children feel safe” – they are “loud, pleasant, all under you because they belong here” and are not trying to get rid of anything. The space in which you are in “Feeling like a house”.
On the other hand, they wrote that bedroom children are attracted, isolated and go quiet “because the common space will not feel like it is for them.”
“Listen, we will not say that every child’s personality is the same,” they explained. “But sometimes the mess, the constant trick, the chaos in your living room? That’s the sound of security. Of the comfort. Of the connection.”
Whitney Raglin Bignall, Associate Clinical Director of the Kid Mental Health Foundation, a nonprofit promoting children’s mental health, agreed with the feeling that parents should feel satisfied that their children feel quite at ease to be in these shared spaces.
She also claimed that children could spend more time in their bedrooms to avoid any stress caused by family conflict.
â € œSafey can play a role, – she told USA Today, adding that other factors could also play in a situation, such as age, personality, personality or time of year.
For example, some people are of course more introverted than others, and some prefer more solid activities such as reading.
Children can choose to spend more time disappearing in their bedrooms during the school year, as well as Dr. Thomas Priolo, a child psychiatrist at Hacksack Meridian Health, explained the exit, as they are more stimulated social school and extracurricular activities when they are out of the home.
And as children enter their years before adolescence and adolescents, they tend to retreat to their bedrooms because they “will want to be more independent and feel responsible for themselves, and having a space for themselves in their room allows them to take control,” Priolo said. “As children grow old, it becomes more important and more a conscious decision.”
Some families may have set games for children to spend time while parents are released in so -called “adult spaces”.
“It is also about the way families accept and welcome children’s play, their toys and personal belongings in municipal living spaces rather than demanding that these be kept in their bedrooms or separate spaces,” said Dr. Martha Deiros Collado, a clinical psychologist, for newsweek.
She added that allowing toys and games in municipal spaces “sends a loud message that children are not mini adults. She communicates: even children live here and we allow them to take up as much space as adults.”
However, Priolo pointed out that it is not a bad thing to have a child who wants to spend more time in their bedroom – but red flags should be raised if a child who normally spends time in common spaces begins to retreat to their bedroom.
“Instead of looking at it as a” living room “versus” bedroom children, the best way to see it is like home and ensuring that children feel safe no matter where they are, “he said.
Raglin Bignall added that it is best to relocate from a “parent of the living room” in a “parent of the bedroom” every time at a time to replenish, especially as it can be overwhelmed.
â € œ Everything needs vacation. You can’t have people around you all the time, “said Raglin Bignall.
