Is your child sensitive to sensory stimulation? Does your child have a hard time with changes and transitions? Do not fret,your child falls under the category of Orchid Children. Orchid Children are known to thrive in responsive environments due to their highly sensitive nature. Parenting an Orchid Child needs a balance of not protecting the child too much and not pushing them into overwhelming circumstances. Despite their delicate nature,Orchid Children can grown to be strong and resilient. Feeling so deeply can be a blessing as well as a curse which Orchid children possess innately. These kids tend to be super sensitive,hyper-vigilant, anxious and fragile. As reported in April 2011,in Psychology Science, certain variations in the children's CHRM2 gene

appear to interact with parental negligence to produce the most undesirable teenage behaviour that produces high levels of aggression and delinquency in them. Simply put,orchid children raised in hostile environments are at a higher risk of developing bad behaviour than in healthy and nurturing environments. Taking into consideration,the stress response time and reaction of an Orchid Child;they possess a heightened stress response and get aggravated in external stimuli environments than other children. Hence,orchid children can thrive in positive,supportive and nurturing environments.

The next section of the article comprises of some healthy raising conditions that should be provided for the orchid child.

#1 As Orchid Children need a downtime after social interactions, the calm time should be provided to them in a quiet space or a peaceful tent where they can unplug their emotions by physically spending alone time.

#2 Orchid Children look for opportunities for creative expression. Parents of these archetypes should create a foundation of freedom and tolerance for them to open up.

#3 Practising gentle discipline will aid Orchid Children to internalize moral lessons via kind communication. Yelling and threatening are a complete danger zone as they get over stimulated.

#4 Undivided love and attention is the way Orchid Children acknowledge love. Spending quality time,generous gestures,reminding them of their strengths,helping them in finding their talents creates an optimal emotional environment for these kids.

#5 As they possess precarious emotions,Orchid Children bloom well in variety of assessment outcomes i.e. verbal,written,auditory and kinaesthetic learning pedagogies works great for them due to their temperamental nature. Hence, only one mode of assessment would create a bias for them.

#6 As their nervous system is more receptive to the world,they feel things more,their brains work faster; a low stress environment will nurture their capabilities.


As orchid children are known to grow up in traumatic environments, an egalitarian approach works the best for this sub-sect of children. Boyce's research states that 1 in every 5 children are orchids which was stated in his book,"The Orchid and the Dandelion,Why some people struggle and how can they thrive(2019).
