27、aise their kids. They want to encourage their children every day. But when it comes to building self-esteem (自尊) in children, praise doesnt always have a positive effect, according to a special edition of the journal Child Development. The issue, edited by Eddie and Thomas, is focused on research in

28、to how children develop a sense of self and building your childs confidence takes different skills than you might think.Eddie points out that children are born without a sense of self, but it doesnt take long before some kids have a lot of confidence and may feel superior to peers, while others may

Surprisingly little is known about the origins of childrens self-concept,” Eddie said.Research has found that when kids have a warm, loving relationship with t

However, when they are given endless praise that is inequal to their achievements, their self-esteem may drop.Instead of lavish praise, parents should focus on warmth to build self-esteem, researchers have foundspecifically, parents should show interest

Too much praise can make children worry about disappointing t
