—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“Children’s self-esteem develops in proportion to the depth of trust that is reached in the parent/child relationship.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
“Self-esteem is the real magic wand that can form a child’s future. A child’s self-esteem affects every area of her existence, from friends she chooses, to how well she does academically in school, to what kind of job she gets, to even the person she chooses to marry.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
