Different Ways To Boost Your Child’s Self-Esteem

child's self-esteem

As a parent, you want their kids to feel happy about themselves and have good self-esteem. Self-esteem can come easier to some kids than others. If your child’s self-esteem is low, here are six ways you can help boost it:.

Avoid being critical

The messages kids hear about themselves from others often affect how they feel about themselves. Harsh words or negative statements like calling a child lazy don’t motivate kids and can hurt their self-esteem.

Focus on strengths

 Pay attention to what your kids do well and enjoy. Make sure they have chances to develop these things. Focus more on strengths than weaknesses to help them feel good about themselves.

Encourage healthy friendships

Teach kids that the best friends are those who treat them well, and lift them up by what they say and do. Kids should avoid people who act in ways that tear others down.

Be a good role model

When you do tasks without grumbling or complaining, you teach your child to do the same. When you avoid rushing through chores and take pride in a job well done, your child also learns to do that.

Help your child learn to do things

Teach by showing and helping at first. Then let kids do what they can, even if they make mistakes. This is a key part of developing positive self-esteem. Encourage them to always do their best but explain that they don’t have to be perfect. No one is.

Notice what goes well

When you hear your kids complain about themselves or their day, have them find something that went well instead.
