Building Confidence
Building confidence in their child is an issue that many parents find difficult to tackle, especially in a child’s formative years. It is hard to breach the subject with a child, much less explain the concepts of positive self-esteem and child development. The good thing is, many consider school to be a safe space and a safe environment where their child can build up confidence, be it clarifying doubts, asking questions or even practicing socialising skills with peers.
