Hi fellow teachers!!
Which noun in the following text, could be considered as a synonym for SELF-CONFIDENCE:
"Today teens often don�t feel needed or vital to the welfare of the family. Parents do well to include responsibilities and chores in the daily lives of their children. Teens need money, perhaps in the form of an allowance. However, chores should be considered a necessary part of working together as a family. This helps knit family as a team.
Other ways of developing needed structure are to have meals together and create some family rituals. Too many moms and dads become absentee parents while fantasizing that the outward poise of their teens means they want to be left alone. Teens need and want their parents� love and guidance. Be there for them and don�t be afraid to sometimes say no. "
� I think it must be "structure" but I �m not so sure...
Let me know what you think, please.
Have a nice weekend
