How to teach children to love themselves

Dear child, you may not know that you are the most precious gift in my life. Your presence makes my world more beautiful and meaningful. I love you more than you can imagine. However, I know that one day, you will leave my protection and pursue your own dreams and happiness. If I could leave you with anything, I hope it would be to \”love yourself.\” What does it mean to love yourself? Loving yourself is not selfish, narcissistic, complacent or arrogant. Loving yourself is a kind of respect, acceptance, appreciation and care for yourself. Loving yourself is a kind of trust, support, encouragement and affirmation of yourself. Loving yourself is a kind of responsibility, growth, change and progress for yourself. Because only when you love yourself can you truly love others. Only when you love yourself can you truly be loved by others. Only when you love yourself can you truly enjoy life. Loving yourself is not an easy thing. We live in a society filled with pressure, competition, judgment and expectations. We are often swayed by external voices and forget our inner voice. We often get caught up in the standards of others and lose sight of our own worth. Too often we get hung up on past hurts and give up hope for our future. But, trust me, kid, you can learn to love yourself. It takes time, patience, courage and action. This requires you to constantly explore, discover, know and accept your true self. This requires you to constantly change, grow, improve and transcend your better self. In the process, I want to give you some advice: Stop comparing yourself to others. Everyone is a unique individual with different talents, personalities, experiences and goals. Comparing yourself to others will only make you feel depressed or proud, not happy or satisfied. Comparing yourself with others will only make you ignore your own strengths and potential, instead of allowing you to discover and develop your own characteristics and value. Don\’t care what others think. Everyone has the right to express their opinions and feelings about things. However, not everyone can understand and appreciate you. And not everyone can give you correct and helpful feedback. Don’t let other people’s opinions limit or determine your actions and choices. Don\’t let other people\’s opinions affect your understanding and evaluation of yourself. Give yourself permission to make mistakes. No one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes.

Making mistakes does not mean you are a failure or incompetent. Making mistakes just means that you encountered some difficulties or misunderstandings when trying new things or challenging difficulties. Making mistakes shouldn\’t make you feel ashamed or guilty. Remember, it is just an experience and you can tell yourself: \”I will do better next time\”, \”What did I learn this time\”, \”How can I improve this time\”. Remember that your worth is not determined by external conditions. Many people believe that their worth is determined by what they own or accomplish. They think they must have beauty, wealth, fame, status, etc. in order to be recognized and respected. They think they have to meet certain standards or expectations in order to be likedand praise. But remember, kids, these are external conditions and they do not determine your worth. A person\’s true value depends on his inner qualities: kindness, honesty, diligence, creativity, etc. Trust and cherish these qualities, they are what truly make you unique and shine. Believe and pursue your dreams. Everyone has dreams, and dreams are our innermost yearnings and expectations for life. Dreams can make us feel excited, excited, happy and satisfied. Dreams can make us feel directed, purposeful, meaningful, and valuable. Dreams can make us feel powerful, courageous, confident and hopeful. You can tell yourself loudly: \”I want to be a doctor\”, \”I want to travel around the world\”, \”I want to write a book\”, please believe and pursue them bravely. Care and take care of yourself. Everyone needs care and attention, including yourself. Caring for and taking care of yourself is not a luxury or waste, but a necessary and reasonable need. Life is a long road. When you are tired, please tell yourself, I need to rest, eat, and have fun. My child, for the rest of your life, please keep your body healthy, your mind calm, your spirit happy, and love yourself well. ——Parents who love you
