Teach your children to congratulate others
When children know how to praise themselves, it will be easier for them to praise and congratulate others, how to achieve it?
Congratulating others is a good sign of altruism and empathy … when it is difficult to congratulate it is because selfishness is still too anchored in people’s hearts, as well as envy. Children with strong social skills interact more successfully with others and often get along better with their peers.
The ability to offer praise and compliments to others helps children look for positive attributes or actions in others and softens their social interactions with other people as they create connections with the people around them. This will help you to be better received by others and your friends will consider you better. Everyone likes to be next to a person who knows how to say good words at the right time.
For this reason, it is important to teach children this type of skill , so that they know how to praise, congratulate and even praise people without needing to be “balls.” Do it at the right time so that the person receiving such praise really feels it as true.

TEACH THE PRAISE
Teach your child to find specific instances for which he can praise himself. When a child learns that he does not need to depend on others to notice and praise his actions or strengths, he develops a strong concept of himself that will generate success. However, avoid encouraging bragging behavior and teach your child to focus on comparing his current behavior or performance to his own past performance.
Bragging generally makes a comparison between people, often using superlatives that give a statement an improbable feel. When a girl has a positive view of herself, she is more likely to be able to see the good in others as well, and it is easier for her to say so.
PRAISE YOUR SON
Offer your child praise and compliments when necessary to teach him the skills and mindset of praising others. Praise positive behavior or accomplishments with specific comments about what you like about your child’s actions or behavior. By modeling how to praise and give compliments, you are teaching your child to praise others.
ENCOURAGE CONGRATULATIONS
Encourage your child to find opportunities to praise and congratulate others because it elevates them socially . Talk to him about how nice it feels to your child when someone else notices something positive about him and offers him a compliment or compliment. Help your child realize that the feelings of pride and happiness he feels when someone praises him can be transferred to someone else if he praises or compliments you too.
Brainstorm situations in which your child can also praise someone else and encourage them to seek opportunities for them to congratulate others. You could also encourage your child to find at least one opportunity to congratulate someone else every day and then share their experiences every night with the family. It will feel great for making others feel good!
