Episode 39: A child who lacks confidence and what to do about it.

What can we do to help when our kids go through episodes of really feeling a lack of confidence? Now, one of the first things that occurs to me with the question of confidence, and I've seen it over and over through the years, is that kids' confidence will wax and wane.
