There are alot of children suffering from a lack of self- esteem and peer pressure and do not really know how to handle the pressures of this world and do not know were to turn.We as parents really need to spend time with our children and see what is going on in there lives.ask questions, talk to them let them know you care because if you don't grab a firm hold on your kids this world will and you don't want that.kids act out because they are hurting crying out for help.they are looking to belong to be excepted to be loved acknowledged you have to believe for you children encourage them that it is okay to be yourself its ok to make mistakes you have a family who is willing to fight for you.You continue to build them up tell them by repetition GOD made them and designed them in the image of him and he makes no mistakes. I tell my children everyday that they are wondreful kids and that they are the best and I pray with them before we start our day. continued to encourged them and believed and they will eventually change cause your teaching them to love themselves not cause you said so but GOD said so.Try these three steps. inquire about there day listen to what they have to say and encourage them.
