How to increase a child's self-esteem
Personality of a person is formed from birth underinfluence of the environment. As a rule, the child copies most of the principles, habits and patterns of behavior from his parents, who are for him not only an example for imitation, but also the main authority.
Growing up, the child begins to interact withother people. He no longer has enough parents' opinions, it is important that people around him think about his appearance, character and, in particular, about his abilities and shortcomings.
Children react sharply to someone's negative reaction to themselves. Strict criticism and condemnation can originate in a child complexes that it will be difficult for him to overcome independently.
Many complexes since childhood migrate to adulthood, so it is important to avoid the appearance of such complexes or to try to get rid of them if they have already appeared.
With regard to external defects, children are merciless. What seems to them ugly, wrong - the same hour is ridiculed.
The child needs to be persuaded that any part of the body, likeshe would not look, serves a person to perform certain functions, and is not given to him only for beauty. Hands - take something, touch, do the work. Without legs, a person can not walk, jump, run, and without eyes - see. It is also necessary to teach the child how to react properly to attacks, to respond calmly and confidently, having prepared several phrases in advance.
Attention to external shortcomings can be distracted with the help of clothes and accessories - things are of great value to children, especially when they want them, but do not have the opportunity to get it.
You can also deserve the respect of your peersways. Well-developed speech, the ability to think independently and do something better than others always allocates the child and does not allow him to turn into an outcast. Parents should be attentive to their child in order to have time to help him at the right moment when he faces any problems.
