Patient's question:
Hello, my daughter used to be an active, cheerful, and outgoing child. She just started kindergarten this year, and she has been doing well in school, considered quite capable. However, in the past month, she has become quiet and reluctant to talk. She doesn't greet her classmates anymore, and when I pick her up from school, she doesn't even acknowledge me. What can I do to resolve this situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this mom, according to your description above, it is possible that your child has recently suffered from depression.

Do not hit or scold your child. You can try to have some communication with your child. Your child's emotional state generally changes constantly, and the physical and emotional care of parents will give your child the courage to face various real-life problems. Wishing your child to quickly get rid of the troubles of depression!
