Whether you're a parent, teacher or friend of a selectively silent child, there is always something you can do to help her succeed, excel, or simply feel at ease.
Here are some ideas:
1 Recognize her victories.
2 But don't make a big deal out of them.
3 Play a game that doesn't involve talking.
4 Draw attention away from her.
5 Take a yoga class together.
6 Stand up for her.
7 Hug her!
8 Read a child-friendly book about anxiety together.
9 Tell her about a time you were anxious.
10 Advocate for her.
