Confidence and Self Esteem
Episode Number:
041
Show:
Parental Power 
Helping your children to gain confidence and self-esteem is a lifelong endeavor for parents. On today’s call, our team discusses a few of the myths and misdirected thinking that sometimes is common in this area. Rescuing children or intervening when it is not really necessary actually sends the wrong message to our children that they are incompetent and incapable. Empathy and holding kids accountable goes a long way toward establishing self esteem and confidence.
