Attention Parents: Your Child's Future is at Risk!
You want to give them every chance to SUCCEED.
Then you need to develop in them the absolutely vital ingredient of … confidence.
Right around the world today many children are not achieving their potential because they are lacking in confidence.
They probably won't go to you and say "I'm low in confidence", but these are some common indicators:
* They're getting low grades in school.
* They're not making friends.
* They're reluctant to go to school
* They don't want to participate in sports.
* They're putting themselves down.
* They're becoming victims of bullying.
Do any of those indicators describe your child?
As a parent, how are you feeling? Are you:
* CONCERNED about problems your child is facing?
* UNSURE about what you can do to help?
* CONFUSED with many suggestions, but none of them are actually helping?
* FRUSTRATED when the situation is not improving?
If this is you, then take heart, because you are not alone! We have spoken to many parents who have felt the same way. Like you they love their child and want the best for them, and their hearts are breaking when they see the problems and desperately want a solution.
Today we want to share with you a simple thing that you can do that is guaranteed to improve your child's level of confidence. It won't cost you anything, except some time.
This is it.
Simply spend 15 to 30 minutes each afternoon or evening with your child. You could:
* Help them with their homework.
* Listen to them read.
* Play a game with them.
This seems so simple. You'll be amazed how doing this on a consistent basis will give your child a confidence boost. What you are really doing is saying to your child "You're important to me, I want to spend time with you, I want to help you, and I want to have fun with you." This will lift their self-esteem, and help build their confidence.
