A topic in detail, 'Low self -esteem'
You might have gone through the various personality traits or profiles of successful kids and might have come across words, like confident, energetic, responsible, daring, courageous, etc associated with them. But, have you ever thought about the connotation of these adjectives? These adjectives describe the personality of a particular kid; they are the reflection of the people’s perception about that particular kid and most importantly that kid’s perception about himself/herself. In order to create and project a positive picture of oneself and in order to grow in life, high self esteem is very important. However, there are kids who lack any self esteem at all or have low self esteem due to few bad experiences in life. This state of mind can lead to a lot of problems and one needs to overcome them in order to be successful. Mentioned below are the main causes of low self esteem.

No Self Control
The first major cause of low self-esteem is the inability to control oneself and one’s abilities. A kid with low self esteem looses confidence in one’s abilities, and is therefore unable to manage his or her life in society.

No Energy
Another visible effect of low self esteem in a kid is lack of both physical and mental energy to even carry out day to day tasks. In order to progress and grow in any aspect of life, one needs to have the required energy and motivation to indulge in effective living.

No Confidence
The confidence of a kid is directly affected by a state of low self esteem and without self-confidence a kid is like an injured lion. Lack of confidence does not only affect your ability to work effectively, but it also affects people’s perception about you.

Lack Of Intimacy
Kids experiencing low self esteem also find it difficult to get intimate and connect to kid on a personal level. kid is a social being and close and friendly relationships with his peers and associates are important for him to grow. However, if a kid suffers from low self-esteem, s/he will lack the ability to relate personally to people around him or her.

Fear Of The Unknown
Kid suffering from low self-esteem tend to always be afraid of some unforeseen situations. Such children are afraid of meeting new people or trying out new things. They are happy in their comfort zone and the moment they sense any attempt to move them out of their comfort zone, they get anxious.

Failure To Take Responsibility
Kid with low self esteem also lack self confidence which tends to hold them back from taking up responsibilities and being part of new endeavors. Moreover, they are afraid of facing criticisms and develop the attitude of blaming others for any failures. Therefore, in order to keep away all these complexities, they like staying away from taking up any responsibility.

Body Image
The self esteem of a kid is closely linked to his or her body image. Body image is the perception of one’s physical appearance. Low self esteem also contributes to a distorted body image or the perception of a distorted body image and this can affect the self esteem of a kid.

The Most Important - Role Of Upbringing
The way one has been brought up during his or her childhood also plays a great role in developing one’s self esteem. If you were praised, treated with respect, listened to n given enough time by parents, given appropriate physical attention while growing up and if you experienced success in school and sports you tend to develop high self esteem. It is important for a kid to have high self esteem in order to ooze confidence that in turn will boost him/her to stay unwavering and triumphant in life. Low perception about oneself may lead to various self esteem issues.

It is recommended that children engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity on most days of the week. Begin training in good activity habits as soon as possible.

• Children learn by watching and then doing (role modelling).
• Children need time for active play.

• Some difficulties will disappear with maturity, some will not.

 

What can parents do to help?
• Be enthusiastic and create a fun learning environment.
• Let your child suggest games and activities.
• Join in as much as possible.
• Let your child go at their own pace.
• Be familiar with FMS – so you can encourage practise and provide feedback.
• Provide positive and specific information on how to perform the skill.
• Focus on one component of a skill at a time.

• Be patient! Encourage children to be as independent as possible and resist the temptation to get things done quickly (e.g. tying shoelaces).
• Allow time for repetition.
• Praise your child when they do well.
• Keep explanations brief, maximise ‘doing’ time.
• Provide opportunities for new experiences and challenges.
• Teach children that it is ok to make mistakes and with practise
they will learn the skills.
• Promote strengths as well as assisting with difficulties.
• If your child is having difficulties with FMS, speak to their teacher or appropriate person (e.g. school health nurse, GP).

 

Electronic Media (Screen time)
• Research shows that the risk of overweight and obesity increases with the time children spend watching TV, playing video games and surfing the internet for entertainment. Why?
- Less time to participate in physical activity.

• Use the TV classification system e.g. PG, G.
• Have dinner at the table as a family, without the TV.
• Try not to have the TV on in the background.
• Be a good role model: remember children will copy your behaviour.
• Consider how you would go with abiding by the rules above?
