Promoting Positive Self Esteem In Children
Consider these self-reflection questions in your endeavor to promote positive self-esteem in your children:
– How often do you provide opportunities for your child to learn by allowing them to make decisions on their own?
– How well do you uphold your responsibilities by being clear about expectations and consequences, following through, and working together with other adults?
– How do you talk about mistakes and failures to help your children learn?
– Do you always separate the misdeed from the child?
– In what ways do you show that you appreciate their efforts when they do their best?
– How do you reinforce good behavior and choices?
– Do you allow your kids to experience negative consequences for choices and behavior? In what situations is this more difficult for you?
Be honest with yourself. If you wish to experience improvement in any area, set some goals and get help with parenting, if needed. Your children deserve it!
