Building Your Kids' Confidence

Some of your kids just have this thing inside, they've eternalized failure because they got kicked out of priest school. And when a child starts to internalize failure, we're feeling like, i'm a bad kid. So in the absence of feeling good about themselves, they tear down someone else. Confidence comes from confidencei from competence, from doing things. Just telling a child, oh, you're so great doesn't really do anything unless there's something substantive to hang on to.
