A continuation of 10 ways to help your Children feel confident and in control of their lives…
8. Teach children that they always have a choice. In every situation, every person has a choice about what to do, how to respond and how to feel. Teach your children that there are many options of what to do, respond or feel. Let them know that their attitude is under their control and can be changed by simply changing their thoughts. The difference between 2 people going through the same crisis is in the way they respond and feel. For example, two children who have to give a speech at school can respond either by feeling fear and giving up or by learning, getting support and having a go.
Create for yourself a magical and special day.
