I am noticing changes in my 12 years old son who seems to be disturbed and prefers staying aloof in his own room. He doesn't follow instructions and remains lost in his own world. He seems little distracted as if he is constantly thinking about something. Do you think it has got more to do with age or it could be due to the difficult times that we all have been going through due this pandemic? Please guide how should I make him behave normally.

Mera beta 7 saal ka hai. Woh Hamesha bahar jakar doston se khelne ki jidd karta hai. Sara time cheekhna,chillana, baat na manna, padhai na karna ,yeh sabhi badlaav mai usme kuch samyein se note kar rahi hoon. Koi bhi baat mana karne par gussa hone lagta hai aur mooh phula kar beth jata hai. Mera sara vakt usey manane mai hi beet jata hai. Mai kaise usey samjhaun, please meri madad karey.

My 2 year old daughter who is used to having food in the park just outside our house while sitting in her Grandmother's lap, keeps on crying these days. She wants to go out and do the same again but due to COVID, as a precautionary measure we are not allowing her to do that. Her appetite has also gone down and she is becoming stubborn day by day. Is there a way out to deal with this situation? Please suggest .

My child who is 1 year old has become quite clingy to his father as he has spent good 45 days lockdown period at home with him. Now when he sees his father getting ready for office, he gets cranky and begins to howl at the top of his voice. This has become an everyday 2 hour scene at home in the morning. It's becoming difficult for me to make him stop crying and control him as he would lie down on the floor and bang his head. He doens't listen to me and keeps on looking at the gate waiting for his father.How can I make him overcome these extremely emotional meltdowns? Please help me.
