SCHOOL FOR PARENTS: How to strengthen the self-esteem of children.

in #steempress5 years ago (edited)

The success of children in life, and the outcome of their destination, depends on their confidence in themselves and their strengths. Unfortunately, parents rarely pay attention to their child's self-esteem. It does not matter if it is too high or too low.

Any deviation, even very small, is bad. Such people are disappointed in life, and their failures are attributed to parents.

Parents can strengthen the child's self-esteem by considering several easy ways to do it:

1. Let your child choose a fun activity for the whole family during the weekend.


If you are still small and such a task may be too difficult for him, you can give him several options to choose from. Do not forget to praise the child for an excellent choice.

2. Offer your child to try a new activity for him

(for example, a new sport, playing a musical instrument or dancing). Say: "Whatever you choose, I know you will do the best you can. You will succeed ".

3. Use long walks or trips to talk with your child about self-esteem.

Remind him: "If you like to dance or play soccer, it's great, but I will always love you, no matter what happens. I will love you simply because you are you. "

4. Learn something new with your child;

For example, find out the name of the plant you saw while walking or learn the history of your city. Tell the child: "It's great that you are interested in many things. You're so smart and you learn something new quickly. "

5. Reject for a day something that is familiar to you (for example, a coffee or a mobile phone).

Invite a child to do the same with the thing (for example, do not pick up a tablet or your favorite toy). Explain to your child that our favorite items can be useful or interesting, but we can be happy without them.

6. Charge your child with new responsibilities at home,

transfer more responsibility Charge him with something you think he can do well.

When the child faces the new task, do not forget to praise him.


7. If a child is self-critical (for example, if he says: "I'm stupid" or "I can never play this game well"),


Do not immediately deny their words ("No, this is not the case"). You'd better ask the child: "Why do you think so?" Let him explain his feelings; You can probably help him better.

8. Offer a child to make a gift or a postcard to a friend from a poor family, an elderly neighbor or a relative.


Remind him: "By helping other people, you begin to feel better yourself."

9. Buy a notebook for your child and invite him to keep a diary called "I believe in myself".

Offer each night to write down some positive things that happened during the day.

At the end of the week, you can read the notes about what happened during this time with your child.

10. Laugh with your child.


Create a happy, safe and inspiring atmosphere in your home. The child must understand that the house is a place where he can be himself.
