They are both very handsome, gorgeous. I would agree with the other postees that recommended to not only get them involved in sports and other activities that interest them, but perhaps into some counseling with someone that specializes in children with self-esteem issues. They may only need a few sessions, however, it can be so worth it.
And please do talk to your children about the dangers of inhalants ('huffing' fumes) for a cheap, quick high as a friend has a traumatic brain injury (tbi) and other permanent damage such as to her bone marrow (fatty inner lining of the bones that cushions joints and makes blood cells) from huffing at age 12, now in her 30's. Those that try using an inhalant can also have hearing loss and other organ damage and even die! And that can be the 1st time or 10th time. For more info on the dangers of huffing: http://www.inhalants.org
Also please talk to them about the dangers of 'the choking game' which can lead to a stroke ('brain attack') or even death as well: http://www.deadlygameschildrenplay.com Those two are just some of the 'household dangers' that parents and kids as well may not realize how serious and the fatal consequences of even if 'just' trying to self-medicate or conform. And just for some general knowledge that a 'water drinking contest' can be fatal as well as it depletes the body of sodium and other minerals: http://waterintoxication.org

Based on your e-mail and before looking at your sons' pictures, I thought you might be a mom who only thinks that her kids are cute and that your boys would be unattractive. I was happily wrong, they are adorable. They are only 11 and 9 so don't girls still have cooties. Sometimes getting boys involved in sports or activities they can excel at might help their self-esteem. They don't have to worry about their looks, they are both very handsome little boys.

Both of you boys are handsome and are sure to attract many girls when your ready. But remember looks will only go so far. In order to keep the girl you attract you need to work on your inside as well. Work and study hard, love one another, and be a blessing to everyone you meet (which I'm sure you already are).

They are good looking kids but if you are trying to boost your kid's self esteem, this is not the way. Sure, it's all good for a minute - but it only a bandaid. Being positive about one's self comes from inside, not outside.

i think they are both very handsome young boys and they will definately have no problems with the ladies.
If they have low self esteem you need to get them some counselling so you can find out the root of the problem.
