As a child develops, they begin to form relationships with family and friends that help them build their self-esteem and set the stage for future growth, development, and social connections. Research shows that children derive a sense of pride, self-worth, and consistency from their social identities. Children who feel worthy and capable are more likely to be optimistic and to do well in school. A healthy sense of identity also helps children to be more open to people from other backgrounds because they are less likely to fear differences or put other children down to feel better about themselves.
