m writing after a long long time...the reason no 1 being i was lazy..secondly i didnt have my thoughts organised..n thirdly being the internet was jus not working....
the title trust is regarding the fact that i always find treating a child patient more satisfying than treating an adult patient...the reason being that u cant work with a child unless he/she trusts u...u may have to initially scold him sometimes (i use that as a last option) but that fear is only temporary the moment he feels u gonna do something that might hurt him he makes stuff difficult for u...so his fear has to be converted to trust before u can proceed....n once he knows that u not gonna hurt he will let u do everything required.....usually talking straight to the point in gentle sweet tone helps
u have to be truthful to him...u cannot say an injection is not gonna hurt....u say it will hurt a bit..like a mosquitto bite or a pinch...if the child is male u say its gonna hurt less as compared to when he falls on ground playing cricket or football....he will let u inject without a problem...
tackling them is tough but once u get them to trust u they will play in ur hands
unlike adults..who do trust u thats y they r in ur clinic..but here n there they doubt u...is it necessary cant we do without it etc etc...
but wit kids its diff..they will ask u a 100 questions..now what r u gonna do the with this
the most frequent but they dont question u...if they have questions regarding ur abilities they jus wont let u work ;)
they say so on ur face too...one kid told me on my face that he wanted sir to do the work....n same thing other told sir he wanted didi to do the job for him...well i was pleased..my patient was loyal to me....i had to handover my work to my sir n went abt doing the childs job....but it was a hell of a satisfaction to experience this trust first hand...
