ABOUT THE BOOK

A guide for all parents who are looking to help their children achieve a high level of self-esteem.

As a parent, most of us love to praise our children and tell them how clever they are. We do it out of love, out of enthusiasm and with the best of intentions. However, those intentions may have a back-lash effect. At best, praising your child may help it gain more self-confidence, but did you know that it can actually harm self-esteem?

Psychologist Dan Svarre explains how self-esteem works in a no-nonsense way. By using everyday examples he shows you how you can quite simply replace praise and evaluation by being there and accepting how your child deals with itself and its surroundings. The aim is joy, the feeling of being valued and of being all-right when being yourself. The result is self-esteem: Happy children with high self-esteem!
