How Single Mother Can Help Son Gain Self Esteem ?
Single parenting is very difficult as you have to work and also take care of your child’s physical and emotional needs during the little time you have. Every son needs a father to look up to and it is a part of the growth of psychology. All sons imitate their fathers at some point or the other and want to fit into their shoes. |
As a single mother you need to understand this psychological need and encourage your son positively. Some children are shared between parents and for such children the father may have more effect on the child during their development stage.
However, as a single mother if you have no such choice and know that your son is suffering from low self esteem then you should step in and act. Try to know the reason why your son feels so low. He may be bullied at school or by a friend or he is being insulted too much. Analyze your behavior towards your son and see if you are being a demanding parent. Sometimes singlehood brings its own pressures on parenting. Once you analyze the problem it is very easy to fix it. Encourage your son to talk to you and listen to what he has to say. Get him involved in social activities and also enroll him in self defense classes. Karate, judo and many more are all self defense methods. These are great ways to boost confidence in a child at a young age. Also encourage your son to be communicative.
