To help a young person, you must understand them as they really are. Major obstacles to doing that effectively are what can be called Blinders. Other terms that are saying about the same thing are denial or distractions or avoidance. The first step a parent or child care worker must do is to see through those obstacles and find the anxiety underlying the unhealthy coping behavior. Physical activities can help, as well as mindfulness and positive peer pressure.
