Developing Positive Self-Esteem

Last week as I dropped my daughter off at school I was approached by a parent. She started by saying she had a daughter that came to the Boys & Girls Club and that she absolutely loves it. She said that before her child became a member she was very shy, didn’t have many friends and had low self-esteem. She said that when speaking with her daughter she has learned that the staff are always positive and welcoming to her. Her daughter has made many friends here and she is much more outgoing. She hugged me as she said thank you for always being there for every child that walks through the door and always giving a fun, safe and welcoming place for her daughter.
