Raising Your Child's Inner Self-Esteem: The Authoritative Guide from Infancy Through the Teen Years
This invaluable guide is designed to help parents and counselors build self-esteem in children from infancy through
adolescence, fortifying them with a healthy sense of self-esteem for the rest of their lives. Whereas some
professionals are content to teach parents about building only outer self-esteem, as in parents unconditionally
praising the children, Dr. Owens believes it is also essential to bolster a child's inner self-esteem. This
way a child feels good from within, knows objectively that he's doing a good job, and is not solely dependent
on the praise of others. While Dr. Owens believes strongly that parents must give children unconditional love, she
is well aware that the world can be a harsh and difficult place. Therefore, she shows that the best gift a parent
can give one's children is the tools to acquire the skills and behavior that will enable them to feel good about
themselves - from within. This unique book imparts vital information on how parents can instill a sense of pride
in their child each step of the way as the child's mind grows in perception and logic. Dr. Owens explains what
behavior to expect from children at each developmental stage. She also supplies ample questionnaires so parents
can determine the state of their children's sense of self-esteem. Most important, she wisely recognizes the needs
of special groups of children. She thus offers specific advice for boosting the self-esteem of children who are
shy, aggressive, unpopular, learning disabled, or gifted, as well as adopted children, only children, and children
of working mothers, divorced parents, step-families, single parents, and same-sex parents.
