Improving Your Child’s Self Esteem

Anyone who suffers from low self esteem or a lack of self acceptance knows how painful it can be and how it can easily lead to feeling depressed. Because of our cultural habits and language it is common to criticize our children in ways that give them the message that they are bad people. Children obviously need to learn safe and socially appropriate behaviors, but not at the expense of feeling like they are a bad person. Learn ways to teach your child what they need to learn while feeling good about themselves.
