Raising a Powerful Girl
Posted on PBS Parents
How do you raise a powerful girl and what does that mean?Powerful girls grow up feeling secure in themselves. They learn to take action, making positive choices about their own lives and doing positive things for others. They think critically about the world around them. They express their feelings and acknowledge the feelings and thoughts of others in caring ways. Powerful girls feel good about themselves and grow up with a "can-do" attitude. Of course, strong girls may (like all of us) have times of insecurity and self-doubt, but these feelings aren't paralyzing because the girls have learned to work
through their problems. Powerful girls will grow up to lead full, valuable lives.
