This helps them build self-esteem and acceptance of themselves as a good person. We sometimes do a “best part of the day” q&a, now I think I’ll switch to, “what was I really good at today”.

Oh, and M-E, you turned out just wonderfully, so I’m not worried. I like what you said today about the most interesting people grow from kids that played by themselves. Popularity isn’t all it’s cracked up to be…too much pressure.
