Self Esteem

It is commonplace to find that children who experience rejection and neglect tend to adapt their own self-view to that which their caregiver holds of them, often deeming themselves to be unworthy of the love and affection that they may not be receiving. This low self-esteem can also translate to a diminished ability to satisfy one’s own needs and the capability pertaining to performing such tasks. This kind of self-perception can also affect their stability thereby reducing their ability deal with negative emotions and restrict their capacity to respond and adapt to stressful events.
