How does Open Eye know this?

Well, good question. I have spent much of my life working with children.
It has actually been my job to give children enough self esteem to say, I can ride this horse, I can learn.

Within all the different children I have worked with I have seen different patterns and different ways in which their self esteem has been attacked.
I have been left with the job of building up their self esteem so that they can walk away from me, not only learning how to ride better, but that they have been given permission to work on their self esteem and, it has been a pleasant experience for them. I always wait for the moment when I know they will walk away from me with a smile.

All my lessons were private, one on one and within each lesson was an individual lesson program designed around each child's weak area's no matter what they were. And, I also, at the end of each lesson would walk down my driveway with the child and animal and talk, there I would listen to their difficulties with their self esteem. They did not know what I was doing, they just knew that I would listen and help them.

So, I saw all the different ways that self esteem was being threatened.
I even witnessed parents that constantly, unknowingly put their childs self esteem at risk. I even saw how children struggled within their own family social atmosphere and their self esteem was at risk from a sibling or even outside the family where their self esteem was at risk with other children at school. And there were also situations where they were threatened by a divorce between parents and they were stuck in the middle of a control between the parents.

So, my advice to you is based on what I saw and how I had to work with each childs self esteem. I was very loved and appreciated by each child and have been visited by children when they are older and have realized where they found their strength.
