Frequently
asked questions
Is it just shyness if my child speaks normally at home but not in school or with strangers?
While it might look like shyness, it could also be selective mutism or situational anxiety, where a child can speak but feels unable to in certain settings. This free 30-minute webinar will help you understand the difference.
What exactly is selective mutism?
Selective mutism is an anxiety disorder where a child consistently doesn’t speak in specific social situations (like school) where speaking is expected, despite speaking comfortably in other settings (like home). We’ll explain this properly.
How can I help my child feel more comfortable speaking outside our home?
We’ll discuss several practical ways – from creating a supportive environment and practicing in low-pressure situations to specific techniques that build their confidence gradually.
Are there any tools or activities that can build my child's confidence in new places?
Yes, definitely! The webinar will introduce you to some simple tools and engaging activities that can help your child feel more secure and encourage communication in different environments.
When should I consider getting professional help for this?
If your child’s inability to speak in certain situations is persistent, causing them distress, or affecting their social life and schooling, it’s a good idea to seek help. We’ll guide you on when and how.
