Hi,
It is completely normal for your daughter to feel scared and hesitant to walk or put pressure on her leg after her injury. It is important to be patient and understanding with her during this time.
One way to motivate her is to start slowly and gradually increase her confidence. Begin by encouraging her to stand and walk short distances with support, such as holding your hand or using a walker. Praise her for every small step she takes and provide positive reinforcement.
You can also try distracting her by making walking fun and engaging. Play games or have her walk to a favorite toy or object. Encourage her to take small steps and gradually increase the distance she walks each day.
To help her overcome her fear of riding a bike, start by having her practice balancing while sitting on the bike. Encourage her to push off with her feet and glide without pedaling. Once she feels comfortable with this, slowly introduce peddling. Again, be patient and offer encouragement throughout the process.
Above all, reassure your daughter that it is okay to feel scared and that you are there to support her every step of the way. With time and patience, she will regain her confidence and be back to walking and riding her bike with ease.
