Confidence Building 101
“I can do it myself!”, a child says when they know they can get the job done. Confidence feels so great!

Take time to pay attention.
Kids feel valued when parents listen to their worries and dreams. It’s a big deal if they believe monsters live under the bed or if they didn’t get invited to their friend’s birthday party.

Help children feel unique.
Parents need to demonstrate their acceptance of children’s faults as well as their strengths without labeling or comparing them to other siblings or friends.

Believe in your child.
Children appear to live up to the expectations others have of them…

Be a confident parent.
Feel confident in your own ability –forgive yourself for not being the perfect parent. Take time for yourself.
