First of all, we must be clear about the performance of self-esteem. People with strong self-esteem can respect themselves, maintain their personal dignity, have a strong sense of responsibility for their work, and be conscientious and diligent in their studies. In layman's terms, it is self-confidence and self-discipline.
People with poor self-esteem tend to feel inferior when interacting with others, do not recognize themselves, and dare not express themselves, because they cannot face themselves frankly. They like to avoid difficulties and ignore the criticism and negation of others.
It is said that it is really important for children to be educated at the age of three. Of course, don't encourage them to hurry. Change takes time.
First, parents should praise and encourage a child with low self-esteem, send him great and excellent information, and help him build up his self-confidence. For example, ask the child to help him do something he can, and reward him immediately after completion, which can be a candy or a small toy. Only with self-confidence can children dare to express themselves and show themselves.
Second, when a child does something wrong, parents should not criticize him at the first time, and don't get angry because the child does something wrong. Venting one's bad emotions is not the so-called education, because it will only bring pressure and fear to children's psychology. Over time, he will be afraid to do unknown things and become timid. Many times, children's inferiority complex is caused by this.
Third, take children to play with other children. Nowadays, many parents will take their children to the park to play, so making friends can also cultivate their self-esteem. In the process of getting along with others, let them know more about what is self-love and self-esteem, let them know what behavior is right, and let them establish the correct three views.
Finally, I want to say that parents should not protect children with low self-esteem. The flowers raised in the greenhouse can't stand the wind and rain, which is not conducive to the growth of children, and it will also make children rely too much on their parents. Only by having confidence in yourself and relying on your children can you have strong self-esteem and know how to protect yourself.
