Whether, when talking about their results, your child names both successes and mistakes, without putting themselves down. Self-esteem Whether, after a single bad grade, your child calls themselves “useless” out loud. Whether, when an adult praises them, your child says thank you and accepts the compliment. What others think Whether your child turns their paper face down on the desk so that classmates cannot see the grade. Whether your child announces a good grade on walking through the door and comes to show it.
