Self Esteem
Ok, I have a confession to make. For my first two sons, I fell into the self-esteem trap of parenting. You know, the “you can’t praise too much” trap? Or sometimes it is said, “Make sure you give 10 good remarks for every 1 negative one.” I really thought the more I heaped on praise, the better my children would feel about themselves. Or at least I thought, if I avoided a lot of corrections, they would.
