Parenting and Self-Esteem can be correlated at multiple levels. Self-esteem can be defined as how people view themselves, a personal evaluation of one’s own personality, experiences and also capabilities. This self critical analysis starts right from childhood and is severely dependent on the child’s environment at home as well as school. This is where parenting comes into the picture.
Listen to this podcast by Ms. Meera Sharma, where she discusses parenting and the importance of parents having healthy self-esteem so that they are able to actively help their child in building his own self-esteem as well. Parenting is not an easy job and involves a lot of trial and error. Ms Sharma is a parent as well as a mental health professional and she talks with experience.
