Positive self-esteem is achieved interpreting yourself through accurate, positive and healthy internal dialogue. We can say that healthy self-esteem is internally defined which means that you love, believe, and accept yourself because you accept and appreciate that you're a unique, quality, and authentic person. In children, positive and realistic self-talk also boost their self-esteem. Here are some ways to boost healthy self-esteem in children:

1- If you suspect that your child may be sabotaging himself with disruptive self-talk, you should work together to create a new, more accurate internal dialogue. As he begins to think differently, he’ll begin to experience a new and more positive life with confidence.

2- Help your child recognize some negative self-talk traps by asking him to write down or tell you about the bad things they say to themselves. For instance, "I'm not good at mathematics." Parents should be careful in discussing about this with their child.

3- Parents can use a fact-finding technique to see if there is any validity to the negative self-talk. To explore this you can ask your child questions like, "Why do you think your thoughts are true or not true?" The point is to help your child identify whether these thoughts are correct or incorrect.

4- Parents should try to dig more to know about their child's thought and try to work on it to improve it. Have your child come up with his own plan for improvement such as studying a little longer or working on different math problems. When your child is involved in devising the solution, he has ownership in the plan and is motivated to carry it through.

5- Encouraging your child to express his feelings and new thoughts out loud will help in creating a better understanding and working out solutions.
