My daughter clocked 10 years 2 weeks ago. We had a small party, BUT she was hiding around the whole time. An aunty leaned over and said in Yoruba, "Ah ah, birthday girl, come and greet us. Are you not happy we are here?" I laughed it off. But it stayed with me the whole night. Because it's not new. She's always been the "quiet one." and I've tried different ways to make her speak up. I'm always on her neck, saying things like: "Greet Uncle. Greet Aunty" "Open your mouth and talk" But, it never worked; it just made her go stiffer, quieter, sometimes close to tears. I've waited it out too, because everyone kept telling me "she'll grow out of it." And I believed that for almost two years. However, she didn’t grow out of it. If anything, it's gotten worse. She used to at least wave. Now she just looks down. I looked online for help. Most of what I found was written for a different kind of home, a different kind of family, …nothing that accounted for the aunties, the "greet your visitors," the constant audience Nigerian children actually grow up in. Meanwhile, it kept showing up. In fact, every open day, teachers mentioned she never raises her hand in class. During birthday parties, she'd stand by the wall the whole time. Every other person’s daughter is "so full of confidence," but mine is always hiding. So, I started paying attention to when it actually happens. The thing is that she actually talks well at home. She only goes cold around people, visitors, her class, or anyone she's not 100% sure of. That's when I understood something. This isn't shyness in the way we usually think about it. The truth is; nobody ever showed her how to move from "comfortable at home" to "okay in front of people." We expect kids to figure that out on their own, and when they don't, we call it a personality, not a skill gap. So, I found something interesting while I was looking into this. It's not "push her to talk," which I already knew didn't work. It's a step-by-step formula. Which goes from answering one word, to greeting one person, to holding a short conversation. It's a part of something called the Quiet Child Confidence Kit. And I discovered this when I was checking the cost of taking a child to a psychologist. Therapy sessions actually cost about ₦30k per session, and sometimes 12 or more sessions are needed. But this kit was something different. Because I could start it with her right away, at home, without any appointment. Fast forward to today.. We're two weeks in. And she’s now greeting people and speaking up effortlessly. It’s a small thing. But it meant everything. So, if your child is the "quiet one" too, and you've already tried pushing, waiting, hoping, this might be worth a look.
