Self-esteem is just like self-worth (how well someone values themselves). It can also be explained as feeling capable and at the same time feeling loved. Balanced self-esteem is a lot like a child's shield to defend against the challenges of the world. Children who know their particular talents, their weak spots and have the ability to feel good about themselves seem to have an easier time handling conflicts and resisting pressures. They tend to enjoy life and are usually sensible and are optimistic.

Children with low self-esteem may experience problems or challenges that may cause anxiety and depression.
* Boys who think poorly of themselves have a tough time acquiring answers to their problems. They tend to accept self-critical thoughts such as "I'm no good" or "I can't do anything right, they become passive and depressed. When they are confronted with a new challenge, their instant reply can be "I can't".

* Girls with low self-esteem might battle with their body image. Typically, girls do care about how other people see them like their skin tone and their make-up (they wear make - up at an early age to deal with pretty girls in school). They worry about how they look because they want to be accepted, fit in and avoid being made fun of.
In contrast, boys with low self - esteem respond to new challenges with "I can't", girls might try new things aggressively. Many teenage girls want to get pregnant simply because they have low self-confidence, and feel that they will be more appreciated. A number of girls engage in sexual conduct to avoid all of the other drama in their lives.
However, the results of having low self - esteem for both boys and girls are the same. Children with low self-esteem may not want to try new things and may speak negatively about themselves: "I'm stupid," "I'll never learn how to do this," or "What's the point? Nobody cares about me anyway." They may experience a low tolerance to stress and easily disappoint themselves.
Parents, guardians and caregivers may promote balanced self-esteem by showing encouragement as well as enjoyment in many areas. Avoid focusing on one specific area; for instance, success on spelling test which can lead to kids feeling that they are only as valuable as their own score. This means that parents should look at the areas that are least focused on and show their appreciation in that area especially when kids put more effort in it. Affection may also assist your kid's self-esteem.
Children with low self - esteem view temporary difficulties as long lasting, intolerable conditions, and a sense of pessimism dominates. If parents have difficulty dealing with their children's low self - esteem it is recommended to seek professional help.
