520 _aThis research explored a small-scale sample of parents' comprehension of self-esteem in their children (ages three and younger). Areas covered include characteristic elements that comprise their children's self-esteem, parents' opinions of self-esteem, and behaviour or influences which may shape the development of children's self-esteem. Author's primary motivation for this research was out of a strong awareness of work with abused and high-risk children and its inverse relationship between self-esteem development and forms of abuse.
