Synopsis

This is a guidebook to help children who:

• don't like themselves or feel there is something fundamentally wrong with them
• have been deeply shamed
• have received too much criticism or haven't been encouraged enough
• let people treat them badly because they feel they don't deserve better
• do not accept praise or appreciation because they feel they don't deserve it
• feel defeated by life, fundamentally unimportant, unwanted or unlovable
• bully because they think they are worthless or think they are worthless because they are bullied
• and feel they don't belong or do not seek friends because they think no-one would want to be their friend.
