А психологи тоже люди ?

Как вы считаете ? Ситуация - дочери 12. Недавно обнаружили у неё небольшой дефицит внимания, дочь хочет ходить к психологу, поскольку её подруга ходит, и не только она, у нас сейчас это модно почему-то :). Так вот, психолог реально хороший, опыт 20 лет + я с ним говорила, одобрила :). Моя дочь известна тем, что с самых ранних лет обводит всех вокруг пальца, особенность у неё,видимо, такая :). А вчера досталось и этому её психологу. Он мне весь вечер писал панические емейлы, надеюсь,я его успокоила ближе к ночи :). Но…..насколько критичен факт, что пациент может лЕххко сманипулировать психолога ?

Ok. Пишу подробности. Дочь пришла плакаться на перегрузку от занятий фортепиано. Прикол в том, что она не занималась фортепиано с 26 июля. Первый урок должен быть в грядущую субботу. Ещё один прикол в том, что ходить на музыку хочет, я спрашивала - желает ли бросить, говорит - нет. Короче, зачем ей понадобилась эта комедия, я сама толком не понимаю.

Из е Мейла психолога, если кому интересно. Переводить - облом, простите. Это не архи- важно :)

>> I'm concerned that the demands of piano might create conflict, and I'd appreciate the opportunity to strategize on how best to manage her schedule. Sophia genuinely enjoys piano and her teacher, but I want to ensure we set her up for success, as 7th grade coursework is typically much more demanding than 6th grade, even if the content itself isn't necessarily more difficult.

> My primary concern about piano stems from Sophia's feeling that her teacher expects her to practice 45 to 60 minutes daily. Sophia finds it challenging to meet this expectation consistently and feels uncomfortable about not being entirely truthful about her practice time. She admits that even 30 minutes a day is difficult for her, especially with some of her current (though mild) challenges. I want to ensure she doesn't feel pressured to misrepresent her efforts.

> I'm hoping we can convey to the teacher that, given Sophia's other commitments and the increased academic demands of 7th grade, it might be beneficial to temporarily adjust expectations for her practice time. The goal is to set her up for success rather than create a situation where she feels overwhelmed or has to be dishonest.

> Sophia genuinely enjoys piano, and I want to support that interest. However, I've also discussed with her that she sometimes struggles with efficient studying and practicing, often due to concentration difficulties and distractions. This isn't her fault, but it means that juggling multiple tasks, even seemingly easy ones, can significantly increase her cognitive load. I want to be thoughtful about managing her schedule to avoid overburdening her. I know for a fact that this year will be more homework intensive. Further, I think physical activities like tennis and rock climbing are very good for her health and physical exercise particularly good for attention and concentration.

> It sounds like things are generally going as we hoped, and I appreciate your insights. I look forward to connecting soon to discuss this further. But yes, let's talk to the teacher and to Sophia and come up with a compromise while she is getting up to speed at school.
