About the Book

A necessary parenting guide for instilling self-esteem in children. This perceptive and practical book shows parents how to help their children acquire self-esteem building skills, and offers a plan for raising confident children. Focusing on children from age five to fifteen--the crucial decade--this book, through a technique called "emotional coaching," shows parents how to raise a child to solve problems, to be socially active and understand others, to express feelings appropriately, and to manage emotions--crucial skills in developing confidence. Filled with information that can be put right to use: * a valuable checklist of possible signs of low self-esteem; * guidelines towards easing a child's anxiety, anger, and depression; * a realistic discipline approach that allows parents to foster positive self-images in children; * ideas for helping a child participate effectively in school; * suggestions for minimizing sibling rivalry that may lead to low self-esteem; * techniques for helping children foster friendships and resolve disputes with others; * a checklist for spotting special dangers to self-esteem in adolescence; * methods for instilling values in children.
