How to help boost your child's confidence

How to help boost your child's confidence
Average rating: 4 out of 5 star rating

My nine-year-old daughter, Charlie, is so shy she freezes up if anyone asks her a question. I used to answer for her, but recently I've made a real effort to let her speak for herself. It's really helping, and Charlie is getting more confident every day.
