Children develop self-esteem by learning to deal with everyday situations.
Self-esteem is not something we can give a child, but it can be nurtured in several ways. Children with high self esteem are more likely to do well in school and less likely to submit to peer pressure. To help children develop a positive self-esteem, parents should communicate effectively, emphasizing a positive approach and build on family activities. Children should realize that their thoughts and feelings are important to you. Express your values and the reasons you believe as you do.
