self esteem and attachment

[natalie]

I am currently working on a case study of a seven year old girl who has been rejected by her father and as a result suffers from low self esteem and has a poor self image, she also forms very strong attachments to any male whom she comes across. Do you have any views on this subject?

Interestingly, this is the subject of my BLOG for today. Most obviously, she will need approval from other adults in authority, at school, church or in groups (scouts, etc). She also needs to understand that her father is not basing his lack of attachment to her upon her but upon his own inability to form such attachments. She needs a sense of success in other areas of life (academic and interpersonal) and that since she did not chose her father, and is guilty of no wrongdoings that account for his behavior, she cannot use him as a reflection upon her value as a little girl.

That said; it remains a tragic state of affairs.
