[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 691067, member: 15832"] I agree that the movement to increase children's self esteem by rewarding them and praising them at every opportunity instead of rewarding hard work and genuine effort has been harmful. This has been replicated in a few studies that I've read about. It's true that overparenting and hypersensitivity do exist. Severe, systemic bullying of a child is fortunately rarely tolerated in schools nowadays.I was a victim of this in high school, as was SWOT. Anyone who has experienced this I'm sure would be very supportive of any efforts a school will employ to stop such abusive, psychologically damaging behavior. [/QUOTE]
