As parents, is children's self-esteem more important than money?

It must be that children's self-esteem is more important than money.

Children are priceless, so is self-esteem. If there is no money to earn, how can children make up for losing their self-esteem? But there are also differences. You can't overdraw your money to satisfy your child's vanity. Vanity is different from self-esteem. Self-esteem must be carefully cared for, and vanity must be extinguished in time.

When I was a child, my friends were introverted, but they got good grades and were particularly aloof. As long as there is a competition about learning at school, he has basically won prizes. His father is a worker in a biscuit factory nearby. On holidays, we sometimes go to the biscuit factory to do some packaging work. The biscuit factory is a small processing factory, and the sanitary conditions are very poor. Noodles are all stamped with their feet. If they wash their feet, they can wear disposable shoes. Many times, they go up and step on their feet without washing them.

After I came back from the biscuit factory, my little friend won the prize in a city-wide essay competition. The content of the article is about the sanitary condition of the biscuit factory. The director of the biscuit factory flew into a rage as soon as the article was spread in the news newspaper. Before the health bureau came to the door, the health bureau had its own people to deal with these problems quickly. In the end, the health bureau found nothing wrong, but the people refused to buy their cookies. The director thought of a way.

This method is to force the little friend's father to make the little friend apologize in the newspaper, saying that everything in the composition was scribbled before, and lying by himself means asking for a good grade in the composition. The factory director promised to give an objective reward to his little friend's father, or he would be dismissed if he didn't promise. After the little friend's father came home, he began to beat the child desperately, so that the child must agree to apologize in the newspaper. The little friend was arrogant and didn't lie. Why did he admit his mistake? He disagreed with how badly he was beaten.

Finally, it was his father who published a newspaper in the name of the child and kept the child at home and prevented him from going out to talk nonsense. People outside thought that my little friend had lied, and the matter was solved. However, my little friend's self-esteem was severely damaged, and he was locked up for a period of time, and he never wanted to come out or go to school again. This life is ruined.
