Regarding my niece, she does 300 words. Her major issue is she does not sit still at all and she wants to keep talking and unable to stay quiet for long. What should be done.

Ans: Involve her in her choice of activities to build up on her sitting tolerance and work on her attention skills to get better. This will help her to redirect her attention to other things by giving her more options to engage productively.

My 11 years daughters Stammers at times. She is ok when she has to narrate things of her own. When Stammers when she has to make things explain. Please suggest me.
Ans: Dear Upendra,
It could be possible that she is under some sort of anxiety to get things right while explaining it.
Even a small incident from childhood where she was stopped when she was explaining and felt conscious, can trigger the same event later in life as well.
When did this stammering begin? Was it when she began talking or much later?
If much later, what event occurred just prior to that? This can be a good indicator of the WHY behind her stammering.
And why I feel this way is because you say that she is okay narrating things on her own but stammers only when she has to explain things. Also a point that you can pay attention to is: Is it when she explains anything or only certain things?
- You can try and work with this by yourself at home by allowing her to gain confidence when she explains, encouraging her rather than making her aware of it.
- Standing in front of the mirror and rehearsing/explaining can give her feedback instantly without her having to feel embarrassed in front of anyone
- Mind games to increase confidence can be introduced (you can seek the help of a therapist)
- Spend a lot of time together as a family in love and care which ensures her that she is never alone

If you still feel that things are not improving, I suggest that you visit a therapist or a psychologist who can guide her through this.

All the best!

Hi My daughter get 72 percentile in jee mains 1 i dont know what happened to her otherwise she is a good student scored 94% in her 10th boards ..if i will look for some private engineering college in india pls suggest i will go with pune or will look for management quota seat for csc from banglore. Pls suggest preference order of btech college in banglore
Ans: Hello Vandana.
Requesting you not to panic at this early stage. Let her appear for JEE session 2 and the state-level engineering entrance test. Let all the results out. You have ample time to think about the available options for engineering admission. At this stage, no need to think about management quota unless and until you want a particular branch in a particular college. Depending on her score in upcoming exams, she may get admission to reputed engineering either in Pune or Bengaluru
Here are some colleges in Bengaluru: (1) R.V. College of Engineering (RVCE) (2) B.M.S. College of Engineering (BMSCE) (3) M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) (4) PES University (5) Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT) (6) Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) (7) Sir M. Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology (SMVIT) (8) BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSIT&M) (9) Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) (10) RNS Institute of Technology (RNSIT)
Suggestion - Don't panic. Keep cool yourself. Ask your daughter to focus more on JEE 2nd attempt and state-level engineering entrance test.

If you are satisfied with the reply, pl follow me or else ask again without hesitation.
Thanks
Radheshyam
