A better way than seeing ourselves as good is seeing ourselves as loved. A child who is loved as herself, both good and bad, does not need to see herself as positive or negative. She sees herself as loved, and the whole issue goes away. A loved self is stronger than a positive self: the child doesn’t need to worry about losing her “good self.” She doesn’t need to hide or deny what she does. No matter how she performs, she will be loved.
