Children are very vulnerable to abuse, children who are confident and have high self esteem are less like to be vulnerable to abuse.
“Self-esteem and solid character are learned; therefore, you can teach them. By
creating environments that engender security and develop strength, educators
can help students acquire the feelings needed to build self-esteem and strong
character.” (
