Shame is a basic emotion of human beings, which is of great significance to the growth and development of children. This paper will discuss how to cultivate children's healthy sense of shame from many aspects and help parents educate their children better.

Timely praise

In daily life, parents can guide their children to know moral right and wrong in combination with situations, give timely praise to correct behaviors, and stimulate their sense of honor and self-esteem.

Experience the collective life as soon as possible.

Let children experience collective life as soon as possible, such as kindergarten, guide children to feel ashamed in time, and promote the normal development of shame.

Respect children's sense of shame.

Parents should respect and protect their children's fragile sense of shame, especially in front of close people, and don't hurt their self-esteem easily.

Beware of "negative effects"

Parents should be alert to the "negative effect" of shame, improve their children's self-evaluation and self-education ability, and cultivate a correct view of right and wrong and honor and disgrace.

Use empathy

Parents can use empathy and negative examples to guide their children to experience shame, turn this emotion into positive power, and further sublimate their shame.
