Establishing a healthy self-image for your child

Self-image is what your children project to others because of what they believe and how they feel about themselves. Your children's Self-image equals their attitude, which equals their behavior, which equals their performance, which equals their overall results in life. Your child's Self-image was formed by the time they were pre-schooler's. It is primarily the result of the way that they were treated by you and their other caretakers. It's important to remember that your child's inner Self-picture (Self-image) was developed very, very early in life.

The importance of investing your time to help develop your child's positive Self-image cannot be overstressed. Your children's Self-image is the most important factor in their happiness and overall spiritual fulfillment.

When a child loves him Self, and is taught how to Self-parent him Self, there are literally no obstacles to fulfilling his or her Self-mastery potential. If your children are raised to believe that the world is good, safe place, they will have a tremendous advantage over children who are afraid, insecure and negative. As you begin to implement the seven pieces of Self-parenting with your children they will begin to have an expectation of happiness and serenity, rather than being judgmental of or intimidated by others. They will develop the emotional maturity and inner Self-confidence that is needed to be well-grounded risk takers. It's no exaggeration to say that a strong positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success in life.
