It's not uncommon for youngsters to compare themselves negatively to their peers. An inferiority complex develops when a person feels physically or psychologically unworthy or insecure. Impartial people usually have low self-esteem and have negative thoughts about their abilities and achievements, but this isn't always the case. If your child consistently displays low self-esteem, states that they are not good enough, and refuses to participate in social activities, they may be suffering from an inferiority complex.
You can help your child overcome his or her "inferiority mentality" by acting as an ally. Children confuse being perfectionistic with having above-average intelligence. Don't tell your child what to think or how to feel, and don't be overbearing. Children who suffer from a "loser complex" will come to believe that the "normal" children are losers. Just because a child is young does not make him or her any less special than a ten-year-old.
Parents must express their dissatisfaction with the way they are being handled. No one deserves to be the target of bullying, and this is especially true for children who are the targets of bullying. Parents should never be required to speak to their children about what other children are doing to them because this could encourage greater bullying on the part of the youngsters.
