About Kid Confidence
Kid Confidence is a carefully researched reference overview on LifeWithBooks. A psychology-based parenting guide helping children develop genuine self-esteem, make friends, build resilience and handle social challenges. Kid Confidence by psychologist Dr Eileen Kennedy-Moore draws on developmental psychology research to help parents nurture genuine self-esteem in their children — not the fragile kind based on constant praise, but real confidence built on competence, connection and self-acceptance. The book addresses: why some popular confidence-building advice actually backfires, helping children develop social skills and make friends, building resilience when things go wrong, managing perfectionism and fear of failure, handling social comparison and jealousy, developing a realistic but positive self-image, and supporting children through school challenges. Each chapter combines research findings with specific strategies parents can use immediately. Real-world examples and dialogue scripts show how to handle common situations — a child who is excluded by friends, a child who gives up easily, a child who constantly compares themselves to others.
