Just praising your kids for things that they do. Even little things. My 11 year old son has 2 football coaches and this is his first year. One coach praises these boys throughout the whole practice while in return teaching them how to play. The other coach screams at them and says "you are wasting my time". When Jeremy comes home and has been practicing with the good coach his attitude and self-esteem is through the roof. If he has practiced with the screaming coach he is down in the dumps and a grump. Praising is the key to boosting selfesteem in your children. What a great articile! Just praising your kids for things that they do. Even little things.

While I believe spending quality time with your children is important, I do believe quantity is equally as important. Children need the quantity of time to feel comfortable enough to open up to their parents. As parents, we just can't expect our children to confide in us in "the quality of time we've allotted them." How can we improve their self-esteem if we don't spend a good amount of time with them, quality or not? It is in the quantity that the genuine quality time evolves. A half hour here or there just doesn't cut it. A good example? What if your partner says, "Well honey, I spent a quality 30 minutes with you yesterday. Isn't that enough?". I doubt most of us would be happy with that. Besides that point, I think you're spot on in your other ideas of giving children specific chores and choices that give them some sense of responsibility and pride in their accomplishments. I would add that children shouldn't just focus on chores that care for their own support circle, but should also give to others. By helping those in need, children learn the joy in giving and as a result, feel good about themselves that they made a difference in someone's life, therefore building their self-esteem.
