Teaching Positive Lessons in Personal Space
When children need personal space and feel uncomfortable with another child invading that space, adults should help them learn to assert their boundaries. By being calm and confident in our modeling, we can teach both children the importance of respecting personal space without casting blame or shaming. Instead of overreacting to the situation, adults should wait for the appropriate moment to calmly intervene. Encouraging the child to use verbal communication to express their need for space can be helpful, although it may not always be effective in the moment. The goal is to teach the lesson while maintaining the child's self-confidence.
