HOW TO BUILD SELF CONFIDENCE IN CHILDREN
Helping your children build a strong self worth is one of the greatest gift you can give to them
THERE ARE FEW WAYS YOU CAN ACHIEVE THIS
1 Give them simple tasks at home and in your work place(if you have a personal business)the tasks can be as simple as setting the table, doing the laundry, drawing up a shopping list or taking care of a younger one,this will increase their sense of competency, boost their problem solving skills and confidence.
Giving your children simple tasks at your business place is a very good way to build their self worth,tasks like keeping records of sales,making a list of items to be restocked or giving them the opportunity to offer inputs from time to time,no matter how minute you feel it is.
2 Don't address any issue with your children while you are still angry when you get angry take a short break,this is to avoid saying hurtful things to them,it's important to make them understand that you dislike their actions not them.
3 self confidence also comes from encouraging your child to try out new things. Every child should have a "thought" book,where they write down ideas that come into their minds
Don't over criticise at the same time don't over praise your child,offer praises only when the child has earned it.
4 One on one time with the child is essential in achieving this goal
