Create a positive environment for your kids by modeling optimism. Remember that the len
s through which you see the world shapes your reality—and the reality for your kids.
Teach your kids to openly express gratitude for three things a day—at the dinner table or b
efore they go to bed each night.
Encourage your kids to come up with new things each day. “It gets their brains to operate
from a positive place, think about their strengths and cultivate optimism.”
Encourage your kids to connect and create deep social support with their friends.
Change how your kids view stress. Help them see stress as a challenge and not a threat.
. Focus on the positive by reminding kids of past accomplishments to fuel future accomplis
hments
Have your child write a positive note to someone in their life.
Have fun and smile.
34. 9.EFFECTIVE PRAISE
Praise your child explicitly for how capable
they are of learning rather than telling
them how smart they are."

one of their greatest teachers.

takes to make their own decisions.

that for them,"

their own laundry — they realize I have to do the work of life
in order to be part of life,”- Haims (based on the Harvard Grant Study)
