From the best-selling author of Raising Confident Boys and Raising
Confident Girls, how parents and teachers can bolster a child''s
genuine self-esteem rather than foster a false sense of
confidence
Girls like to have their accomplishments noticed, but sometimes the
need for praise can spiral into a constant quest for perfection.
Girls may have a propensity to do things not because they judge it
to be right or helpful but rather to stay in people''s good graces.
The result is that they can become cut off from their own true
selves. Praising Girls Well points the way to using praise in a
manner that will boost a girl''s inner confidence, help her to
understand it''s okay to make mistakes, and guide her to trust in
her own judgment. Brimming with practical tips for everyday use,
this is a handbook to revisit time and again for our girls''
grandest-and smallest-successes.
