Parents should spend more time with and show greater care for their children, guiding them to develop a positive habit of reading and studying. They should frequently encourage their children and avoid physical punishment or verbal abuse. When necessary, parents may take their child to the pediatric or neurology department of a nearby hospital for evaluation and treatment. In daily life, children should consume more brain-boosting foods rich in trace elements and protein. For 4-year-olds, excessive pressure must be avoided, as it can lead to poor concentration and reduced patience for learning.
