Hello ladies. I am worrying about my 7 yo DD who is very bright and able but is shy.
She has recently started at a new, high achieving girls' school and keeps telling me she's 'rubbish' at maths for example. She says she doesnt want to put herself forward for anything including during drama but is a real performer at home.
She is terrified of making mistakes which may be part of reluctance to put her hand up. Is it my fault? Am I too critical of her?! Help.
How can I bring her out of her she'll enough to show her school what she can do so she gets the most fun out of her time there?
