Welcome to season 4 episode 12 of Effing Breathe. This week we are focusing on the importance of a healthy self-esteem, and how you can help your child develop this. Our kids will hear a lot of things about themselves when they reach school age. Their peers will begin to become the ones who are in their ear the most, and some will be critical and hurtful. If we don't get ahead of this, and help our kids understand their worth early on, it's hard to repair the damage done to their self image. What others say shouldn't be what we automatically believe about ourselves, but unfortunately, we let others define who we are sometimes.
