Building Self-Esteem – Responsibility


Having appropriate responsibilities is a great way to build self-esteem. To insure the greatest possibility of the assigned tasks completed, set up a reminder system.

You can use a chore chart and award stars for completed tasks. Another idea is to assign a specific time for the duties to be accomplished. Use a transition time as a reminder (immediately after dinner), or set an alarm as a reminder.

Also keep in mind that it can be more encouraging if everyone is busy at the same time.
