Intelligent kids and anxious parents

Did you know that praising children for their intelligence harms them? 

You may be jeopardizing their future if you praise children for their intelligence!

Isn't that shocking? Counter-intuitive?

Other skills can be affected too. Adults are no exception to this!

Don't take my word for it, Check it out anxious parents, cuz it applies to you too!

Researchers from Stanford University, USA conducted studies and experiments which showed that praising a child for his or her intelligence or skills could do lasting damage to the child's future

We all knew indiscriminate criticism could shatter self esteem 

but whoever thought heaping praise could be fatal??

Most of you might be running around with destructive beliefs. The good news is that they can be corrected
