Confident Child: What does it cost to help my child become more Confident?

More and More parents are finding their child is not confident when interacting with their peers.  They often ask “What does it cost to help my child become more Confident?”

The cost is both monetary and future potential of your child.  We will get into the monetary cost later in the article.  You cannot put a cost on the future potential of your child.

You have to ask yourself these questions:

  • Have they gotten frustrated during team sports?
  • Do they sit around and play video games all day?
  • Do they have trouble sitting through dinner or doing their homework?
  • Are they always tired?
  • Do they have trouble paying attention in class?

What is your next move?

  1. Start doing fun strengthening/coordination exercises with your child. For examples and videos go to our website at developmentalsteps.com. Click on Video

  • To help your child’s emotional development.  Physical Activity helps to reduce stress and anxiety in children.
