An Empowering Book for Parenting Daughters with Self Worth

“200 short reflections on topics ranging from how parents can become good role models to talking about emotions.”—Publisher’s Weekly

As kids, girls often advance faster than boys, but fall behind by the time they are teens, victims of low self esteem and confusing standards of womanhood. 200 Ways to Raise a Girl's Self-Esteem is a guide to raising teenage daughters with straightforward advice for people working with preteen girls who want to help girls build positive self-images and develop full lives.

Be an example for your daughter. Raising healthy girls becomes easy as you advise and create rituals that are empowering young girls in their transition to adulthood with 200 Ways to Raise a Girl's Self-Esteem. Prevent anxiety and depression as you raise happy and confident teenage daughters.

Affirming advice to empower your teenage daughters. Author of million-selling Random Acts of Kindness, Will Glennon, guides you through parenting daughters—like empowering girls through carefully considered "boosters,” and learning the subtle differences that can make them “busters”. For example, complimenting a woman’s appearance implies her value is in her looks, but complimenting her on a completed assignment helps her trust her intelligence. Find ways to impart a strong sense of self-worth as you go about parenting daughters, turning strong girls into strong women.

Inside, find tips on uplifting teenage daughters, like:

  • How to boost your girl’s self esteem
  • How to lead your daughter into womanhood
  • How to be a good example when raising teenage daughters

If you liked books for parenting daughters like Love Her Well, Thrivers, or Parenting the New Teen in the Age of Anxiety, you’ll love 200 Ways to Raise a Girl's Self-Esteem.

“Anyone familiar with parenting books and magazines is aware that there has been a lot of buzz about research suggesting that self-confidence wanes in preadolescent girls. After watching his own daughter, "a tough little amazing wonderkid at the age of five," suddenly and completely "lose her moorings' ' by 12, Glennon began doing some research himself. The end result is this book, which resembles Richard Carlson's Don't Sweat the Small Stuff in its accessibility, brief entries and sincere tone. Glennon offers 200 short reflections on topics ranging from how parents can become good role models to talking about emotions and providing experiences for self-discovery and success. Following each essay are several exercises to put theory into practice directed toward parents and teachers. At its best, the book nudges readers to talk about some things that may not have occurred to them, such as what advertising tells young girls and how to recognize sexual harassment. Many ideas, however, are obvious and impart simple bumper-sticker adages ("make the expression of love a daily habit," "celebrate milestones'' and the wooly "invite her feelings into your world"). While Glennon can be preachy and repetitious (100 ways would have been sufficient), his heartfelt, helpful advice rings clear.”—Publisher’s Weekly
