Excerpt from the Introduction from Raise your Child’s Self-Esteem! 99 Easy Things to Do by Nancy Krulik

“Take the time to show your children how wonderful, unique, and special they are. Be there for them through the good and the bad. Be their cheerleader, teacher, and confidante.  And show then that there is nothing you would rather do than be with them.”

 

#1  Tell your child you love him at least once a day.

#2  Take your child’s feelings seriously. Try not to say she’ll “grow out of it,” or that it’s “not that bad.”

#3  Let your child know it’s okay to make mistakes.  Admit your own.
