Unconditional love and full acceptance of the child is the key to his future self-confidence. It is also important to convey adequate self-esteem to the baby by example and follow simple recommendations.
Instructions
Step 1
Give your child enough independence, it is the foundation of self-confidence. Provide an opportunity for the baby to show his skills, create all the conditions so that he strives to develop them. It is not necessary to do for the child what he himself is able to do. Do not forget that the baby is constantly developing, which means that the boundaries of his independence must be expanded. If so far some task is difficult for your son or daughter, break it down into stages.
Step 2
Give your child the opportunity to take care of their own leisure time. If parents constantly come up with games for him, entertain in every possible way, they do not allow him to take the initiative. The kid should be able to occupy himself, and not wait for someone to amuse and interest him. Thus, the child learns self-expression, reveals his capabilities and talents. Remember to sincerely praise him for his accomplishments and compliment your baby's outstanding skills. Believe me, they will definitely show up if you focus on them.
Step 3
Stop feeling sorry for the child and compare him with others. This lowers self-esteem. Simple sympathy in case of failure or light injury will be enough, and the baby will feel like a stronger, more confident person. Lack of appreciation, especially when compared to other children, will also have a positive effect on confidence building. Please note that even praising another child in front of yours is undesirable.
Step 4
Believe in your child and tell him about it. Forget the phrase that he will not succeed. It is devastating to a child's confidence. So, inspire your baby, support all his undertakings and initiatives, of course, except in cases of obvious danger. Think about whether you are exaggerating this very danger. Parental anxiety can be transmitted to the child and negatively affect his / her confidence.
