Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this episode, Dr. Shaw takes a quick look at the notion of SELF-LOVE. For starters, the development and maintenance of self-love begins with not being down on oneself. With our children, it's important to model our ability to navigate difficult waters. Self-love also promotes self-trust. Giving your child a good amount of responsibility demonstrates to them that you feel that they understand their natural boundaries and abilities. Real friendships also support our sense of well-being, and when we find ourselves with unfulfilling relations it undermines our feeling of self worth.
