As a nurse assessing a school-age child with risk for low self-esteem, what nursing interventions would you prioritize to promote the child’s self-esteem and emotional well-being ?

Mrs. Espinosa, a 40-year-old mother of two, brings her 8-year-old daughter to the clinic for a routine check-up. The child is in good health but has been exhibiting signs of low self-esteem, such as avoiding social interactions and expressing negative self-perceptions. Mrs. Espinosa is concerned about her daughter’s emotional well-being and seeks guidance on how to support her child’s self-esteem.
