Do you feel that it's ever warranted for people to have low self-esteem?

Certain people, yes

No, even though most people have it from time to time, no one should ever have it

I have what I like to refer to as 'role playing low self esteem'. In other words, although I know deep down that I'm a pretty awesome guy, if I don't receive the abject shame and humiliation I need so badly, I'll eventually get too big for my britches and I'll have more problems as a result.

Some people. Not many. Some people have absolutely nobody that loves them unconditionally and reminds them of thier value. It's a mean world and without that this mean world can strip away every belief you have in yourself.
