We all want our child to feel confident about who they are and what they do and have the confidence to discover and try new things. But nowadays, children are always faced with many social pressures and opinions of others that it easily affects their confidence and self-esteem. Confidence is very important to a child's happiness, health, and future success. Confident children are better equipped to deal with peer pressure, responsibilities, frustrations, and challenges; and they know how to better deal with positive and negative emotions.

It is important to build the child's confidence from an early age. Confident children don't just feel good about themselves but it helps them prepare for the future as well. This is especially crucial now that the teen suicide rate is soaring and we often hear stories of kids getting bullied. It's important that we bolster our child's self-esteem so they will be able to handle the obstacles they encounter better.
