Content: Nalin says this strategy can prompt a child toward critical thinking, awareness, and self-discovery. Embrace Risk-Taking
Mistakes are bound to happen, which is why Nalin says parents should teach children that failure is a part of life and a great learning experience. When children are struggling with a setback, Nalin says it is important that parents offer their unconditional support by listening and offering encouragement, regardless of the end result. “In times of failure, children should understand that it’s never too late to try again and that the effort is infinitely more valuable than the outcome,” he explains. Nalin also says that parents can instill these values by taking risks together as a family. " Starting a new hobby or activity, or even making new friends, are great ways to teach children to step outside of their comfort zone and appreciate the joy and excitement that comes from taking risks," adds Nalin. Check Your Confidence
If you want to help your child develop confidence, you first need to take inventory of your own. “ Children are great mimickers, so parents should be conscious of the way in which they handle their own problems,” says Nalin. He points out that facing failure or obstacles with grace and confidence is a great way to teach children that their own drawbacks and disappointments are perfectly acceptable and a normal part of life. “ Children who witness a parent’s determination to try again after a defeat will be empowered to tackle his or her own challenges head-on," he adds.
