From the moment children are born, they develop an array of new abilities as well as the confidence to use them. They blink. They cry. They turn over. They eat. They laugh. They speak. They walk. They run. As they become older, however, they’ll need to sustain their confidence, as it will help them learn new, more difficult skills, have faith in their own abilities, understand more about their strengths and their weaknesses, and understand how to overcome obstacles that they encounter. Instilling healthy confidence in your children is essential. But how do you do it? Above all else, it requires good communication and honesty.
