Self Child

If your child is easily knocked by obstacles and has a hard time bouncing back from setbacks, gives up quickly, or melts down easily, you may worry about them succeeding in a high-pressure, competitive world. When children have difficulties self-regulating, they may have difficulty interacting with both peers and family members.
