Causes Of Low Self Esteem In Teenagers

Child Teen self esteem
Self esteem for the child and teen starts in the home where parents have the opportunity to provide a wonderful gift of life to their children.
Parents can provide their child teen with the tools that will enable them to build the self confidence to meet the challenges presented to them through their daily life. It is the parents who are the role model to the young child and influence the personality of a teenager.
A child growing up in a secure family environment is more than likely to have self confidence because of the support that their parents are providing them. This child is offered reassuring words, positive comments and security providing a nurturing environment.
The child teen who grows up in a hostile environment, perhaps an abusive environment, will in all probability suffer low self esteem. This child teen is battling everyday just to get through life and it is does have a detrimental effect on them.
Its not the child teen’s fault that they have been presented with a poor situation. But it is these child teen’s who really travel through life without having large expectations and often can prosper from their upbringing. I mean this to say a lot of abused children flatly refuse to bring their own children up as they were and provide great parenting skills to their children.
Whereas on the other hand, child teen growing up in environments that are secure and nurturing might take it for granted when bringing up their own children and might not THINK to provide their children with values as the abused child teen might do.
So there are differences. As a rule a parent no matter what the environment is can have an influence on the child teen self esteem. Simple words of encouragement, words of support and interaction with the child teen can go a long way in building thier self worth.
A child teen no matter what environment can play sports or participate in activities where the parents can become involved. Buying the clothes, the boots the utensils with the child teen is a supportive role. Watching and applauding the child teen is reinforcing self confidence and provides recognition of an achievement.
It is the simple things a parent can do for their child teen that can have the most influence in providing the child teen with the necessary tools to meet today’s challenges.
Building child teen self esteem is not hard, it costs nothing and can be very rewarding to all concerned. Give your child a big smile and offer a few words of encouragement every now and then and sit back and watch the improvement.
