[QUOTE="ShakinThingzUp, post: 104193, member: 4250"] My son, Hunter, (11 years old, ADHD, PTSD, depression) has really bad self-esteem issues. Without giving the full history, I'll just say that this has become the main source of his current problems. He simply doesn't believe he can do ANYTHING... And, if he is reprimanded, even the tiniest bit for anything, he shuts down. He has often told me he's a "bad son." His counselor and our family are working hard to try and help him heal & believe in himiself... Teasing by older kids really does him in... We praise him often - even for simple stuff. He is involved with boy scouts and does well there. He's in band (not doing so good, but we are encouraging him and he wants to do better)... I'd appreciate any ideas you have that help boost a child's self esteem. God Bless! Amy [/QUOTE]
