- ajuc 1y agoPraise the effort not the result. And especially don't make it into identity of the child. Best: good job studying for that exam. Meh: good job passing that exam. Worst: you so smart, everything comes easy to you.
- hengheng 1y agoDon't just reward your child for being smart. Reward them for listening, integrating, being nice towards others, relaxed, comfortable, flourishing, in their lane
- 1auralynn 1y agoThe answer here is actually teach them to self-evaluate, e.g. What do you think about your drawing? Should we hang it up? Got this from Steve Peters: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Peters_(psychiatrist) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Peters_(psychiatrist)
