Building Your Child’s Self-Esteem

The National Association for self-esteem defines self-esteem as: “The experience of being capable of meeting life’s challenges and being worthy of happiness.” While this sounds remarkably simple, developing and maintaining healthy self-image is a challenging task. Poor self-image accounts for many problems that have greater impact upon adults. Starting young children on a path towards confidence in who they are and their abilities is vital, to increase the likelihood of a more satisfying, self-assured life for them as adults.
