We tend to go through life evaluating ourselves and others according to a scale of worth. The amount of value that we consider we are worth determines our self-esteem. If we get into the habit of thinking negatively about ourselves, then it results in low self-esteem. Low self-esteem can be a result of negative life experiences, particularly when we're young and most vulnerable. These experiences may include being criticised or judged negatively, such as by a parent or school bullies. As adults, abusive relationships and very stressful life events can also cause low self-esteem.

If you are concerned, don’t ignore the alarms. Take the child to your pediatrician and then to a child psychologist to get a developmental milestone assessment done.
The American Academy of pediatricians recommends milestone assessment at 9, 18, 24, and 30 months or at least one of them.
I recommend that all pediatricians develop a protocol to screen infants for any developmental delays
The International Dyslexia Association refers to dyslexia as a language-based learning disability that does not arise from a physical limitation or a developmental disability.
Dyslexia is primarily associated with trouble reading. It’s not a sign of low intelligence or laziness. It is not due to poor vision. It is a common condition that affects the way the brain processes written and spoken language. People with dyslexia can still understand complex ideas.
