We often complain about our children’s lack of self-confidence, and we sometimes envy others’ dashing on stage. Forgive me for not knowing that children’s lack of self-confidence is often because we adults have not cultivated it well. For example, we once promised our children a certain promise, and we did not do it because of work or things or friends, the child in the mind that he is not as important as our things or friends, the child feels that he is not loved, so the child gradually become inferior and no self-confidence. The following methods can make your child confident from an early age 1. Take your baby’s requests seriously Often ignoring your baby’s needs will make him lose confidence because he is not taken seriously. When he asks expectantly on the phone, “Mommy, milk.” You can’t meet him outside for a while, tell him the exact time: “When you get home, mommy will get it for you, okay?” 2. Give your child the opportunity to make his or her own choices When you take your baby on a weekend trip, ask his or her opinion, but don’t ask, “Where do you want to go?” Instead, ask, “Do you want to go to the zoo or the aquarium?” Giving him a range of choices and letting him make his own will add confidence in himself. 3. Don’t laugh at your baby for saying the wrong thing When your baby is just learning to speak and pronounces words inaccurately. Don’t laugh at him, and don’t deliberately emphasize it at that time, teach him again at another time. During the baby’s language learning period, your ridicule will make him lose his confidence and interest in learning the language. 4. Take your baby’s questions seriously When your baby asks a question, listen patiently, and if you can’t answer, tell him honestly. Let him know that there are things that no one can do and dispel his awe of others, thus increasing his confidence. 5. Use a consultative tone to let your baby do what he or she can do, such as “Bring the newspaper to mommy, will you?” Let your child know that being needed is the best way to improve his self-confidence. 6, give your baby a space to display his work Let your baby post his doodles on the most prominent wall in your home; make a display for your baby on the cabinet to display his small creations. A sense of honor is the best way to inspire your child’s self-confidence. 7, give your baby a territory of their own Give your baby a room, no conditions can give him a part of the room, so that he has a free play, unrestricted little world. Because having his own “territory”, so that his heart is full of pride, which will add to his confidence. 8, his tolerance is the soil to develop baby confidence Do not always because the child’s room or table is very messy and blame the baby, but to teach him to clean up their own scattered toys, and with him to do. 9, do not compare your child with others Do not say to your baby: “sister can already count, you still can not, you are so stupid!” Even if he is really worse than other children. Always compare him with children who are better than him, it will most likely frustrate the child’s self-confidence. 10.Let your baby be the boss once in a while Take your baby to the supermarket, hand him the pending payment and let him hand it to the cashier. He can’t count yet, but at least let him know that money can buy things. Gradually let your child take control of his own pocket money and let him be the family, it will increase his self-confidence in life. 11.Let your baby choose his own clothes Buy clothes for your baby and let your child pick his own colors and styles. Maybe he chose a color you don’t like, but don’t dismiss his vision. The child’s opinion is respected is the beginning of his confidence. 12.Watch his favorite cartoons with your child Watch his favorite cartoons with your child, discuss his favorite characters and lines with him, and show interest in his point of view. Getting along and communicating as equals is a stepping stone to giving him confidence. 13.Let your baby do something that he can do Let your baby wash his little socks and handkerchiefs independently, even if they are not clean. Your child’s confidence comes from your recognition of him in every little thing. 14.Encourage your baby to perform his specialty When your baby performs reciting poems, telling stories and singing songs, give him a clap to show that he should echo. Exercising his courage to perform from the stage is to exercise his self-confidence. 15.Let your baby play more with his peers Let your baby approach strange children and actively encourage him to interact freely with people of all ages. Cultivating his social skills is in fact cultivating his self-confidence. 16.Help your baby make a detailed plan and remind him to carry it out. For example, help your baby make a plan for practicing the piano, and negotiate with him about the time when making the plan. Remind him when you execute it: “Baby, it’s time for us to practice the piano, right?” Get him into the habit of doing things according to the plan. Doing things with a clear mind will make you feel confident as a person. 17.Baby plays with various wastes such as Coke bottles and shoeboxes, don’t arbitrarily stop him Children like to explore what he is interested in, you stop his interest, you also frustrate his confidence to explore. 18, when your child encounters difficulties in playing games, let your child solve them yourself When your child encounters difficulties in putting together a jigsaw puzzle, encourage your child to think of ways to solve these difficulties by himself. If you can’t figure out how to do it, you can point out the side. Overcoming difficulties can increase your child’s confidence. 19. Be specific when your child makes progress When you are with your child, always look for specific reasons to praise him and encourage him with words of approval, but don’t praise him in a hollow way. You can say: “Baby knows how to pee, there is progress.” Don’t say, “You’re so good, baby,” to praise your child in an empty way. You can say, “Baby knows how to pee, so that’s progress.” Don’t say, “Baby, you are so smart, mommy likes you so much.” Specific praise gives him confidence, empty praise will make him arrogant. 20, pay attention to their own commitment to the child originally did not want to take him to McDonald’s, but casually promised him to go, promised but not to fulfill. Your breach of trust makes him lose his confidence and trust in you. 21, help your baby to play the positive aspects of personality, so that he can become a person of character baby is acute, so exercise his speed; is chronic, so exercise his organization. Forcing him to change his temperament will make you lose confidence in him and make him lose his self-confidence. 22, teach him to recognize their own looks from childhood For example, tell him that although he is not big-eyed, but small eyes as long as there is a god is very good-looking. A lot of lack of confidence often stems from the disapproval of their own looks. 23.Provide your child with books and materials to support him in doing what he dreams of doing Let your child recognize his own talents and abilities so that he will be more confident. 24.Try to get your baby out of dependency in life Be on time for kindergarten and try to have the alarm clock wake him up instead of mom calling over and over again. Children who can take care of themselves can be confident in situations where they are not dependent*. 25, let your baby learn to travel from an early age to play in the mountains When you take your baby on a trip, tell him more about the animals, plants, geography, allusions and other knowledge you encounter. To see more knowledge to multiply confidence. 26.Do not use verbal abuse to punish the child’s fault Verbal abuse not only undermines the child’s confidence, but also makes the child rebellious. 27, baby encounter frustration, with a gentle tone of voice with him to analyze this experience will not have the same mistakes next time. It is especially important to re-invigorate his self-confidence. 28.Parents follow reasonable standards of behavior and be respectable Parents who are not respected in society damage their children’s self-confidence the most. You are your child’s role model and your child is a copy of you.
