Please keep in mind while reading this book that while every child is different, all children need these things in their lives. You know your child best, but at least most of the strategies and tips in this book will apply. Here Is What You Will Learn After Reading This Book: More about self-esteem and why it's so important How self-esteem develops The Do's and Don'ts of self-esteem Warning signs of low self-esteem Proven strategies for building self-esteem What to do when the going gets tough And much more! And Here's A Preview Of Chapter 1: "Great self-esteem is one of the most important gifts you will ever give your child. But what is it exactly? How do you define something so seemingly elusive? Self-esteem simply defined is having confidence in one's self, worth and abilities. It is about self-respect. A child cannot develop self-esteem if they feel that they are worthless in any way. Likewise they cannot build self-esteem if they feel that there is nothing they are good at, or that they have no talents. Self-esteem, in the end, is all about self-worth. What does your child think they are worth? Do they recognize how much they mean to you, and how important they are to you and the world around them? Do they understand that everyone has set backs, but everyone also has talents and abilities that increase their worth? Does your child know what these abilities and talents are? Most of these questions would be hard to answer. It is difficult to ask these types of questions to young children. They often do not understand what you want them to say. In older children the questions are just as useless because the child will likely lie or simply refuse to answer. As a parent it is your job to judge your child's self-esteem based on actions, moods and temperaments."
