OUR COLUMNISTS
Low Self-Esteem and Crimes of Youths

............
Parenting is more than merely bringing a child to adulthood. It must bring that child to a successful adulthood so that he/she is intellectually, spiritually, and financially equipped to see himself/herself in a positive light and to be able to withstand others' attempts to define him/her. Many psychologists argue that good self-esteem is crucial to a person's well being, and many realize that low self esteem plays an important role in criminal activity, especially criminal activities of youths.
